Project Tic-Toc is a top-secret U.S. government effort to build an experimental time machine, known as "The Time Tunnel" due to its appearance as a cylindrical hallway. The base for Project Tic-Toc is a huge, hidden underground complex in Arizona, 800 floors deep and employing more than 12,000 specialized personnel. The directors of the project are Dr. Douglas Phillips (Robert Colbert), Dr. Anthony Newman (James Darren), and Lt. General Heywood Kirk (Whit Bissell). The specialists assisting them are Dr. Raymond Swain (John Zaremba), a foremost expert in electronics, and Dr. Ann MacGregor (Lee Meriwether), an electrobiologist supervising the unit that determines how much force and heat a time traveler is able to withstand. The series is set in 1968, two years into the future of the actual broadcast season, 1966-67.

Set in 1968 and presented in vibrant colour, this series mixes science fiction with American historical events - and historical events from other cultures, seen from an American point of view.
It thus mixes exciting technology, wild scientific theory and education in each episode. There's also a chance for costume enthusiasts to comment on or criticise the wearables.
Whatever its aims, just watch and enjoy this entertaining series with its versatile actors.

During a drive across the country during a family vacation in 1967 we stayed at some desert motel for the night. Big fuckin' adventure to a couple of kids like my brother and me. What I remember is watching The Green Hornet and The Time Tunnel on the color TV in the motel room. It's something I've always remembered. Color TV was a big deal back then, shows like The Time Tunnel made the most of it, the color photography in these episodes look great, much better than the junk on contemporary television...
It really was a special night, a big adventure...

Subject: Television Time Travel At It's Purest Form!
First off, I know the title doesn't make much sense, but I couldn't think of anything better at that moment. So, just suck it up, Buttercup!
Now that my knickers are untwisted, I shall continue.
To the uploader, BRAVO! A truly heart felt "Thank You" goes out to you for sharing this underrated & underappreciated SCI/FI Television gem!
I watched this every Friday even at my grandmothers house. She'd pop a huge batch of popcorn, pour it into a brown paper grocery bag, drizzle real melted butter & freshly grated parmigiana, and shake the hell out of the bag till every kernel was coated. I sat on the floor right beside her chair, eating the greatest popcorn ever made, and drink cherry/lemonade Kool-Aid (tasted kinda like pink lemonade, but with a cherry kick). Hard to believe that 1966 was so long ago. I still remember the smell & flavor of the popcorn & Kool-Aid, and practically taste it right now. (Sorry for that. All of my good childhood memories are food related & probably the most important memories I will forever remember, cherish, keep & protect deep in my heart. Because, those good memories were few and far between.
Anyhow....
If you have never watched this before; but are from that era; and remember the original "Lost In Space" series, they're pretty much the same idea. Except, instead of a family cruising around the vast expanse of space in a flying saucer, in search of the passage that will transport them back to their own home in space, it's a mid 1960's ambiguously gay duo cruising around the vast expanse of time in their experimental time machine, in search of the passage that will transport them back to their own home in time.
And, along with a well filmed & decent series storyline, Sir John Williams composed, beautifully orchestrated, conducted & recorded one of the best scores of his early TV series career. In an era of TV soundtracks by composer who depended on & heavily overused an fairly new musical instrument called a synthesizer, Sir John Williams remained true to his use of a live orchestra, although he did occasionally use a synthesizer for sound effects.
With a music career that spans nearly 70 years; an unbelievably amazing library of music; a vast museum of awards & honors for his work, he respectfully deserves & earned the right to be called the greatest modern classical music composer of the latter half of the 20th century!
