Forgotten TV: 'The Outer Limits' Presents a Season 1 Clipshow!

 We are now at the 5th lowest rated Episode of this Series.

Is it bad?

Well, in case you didn't read the Title, this one...

...is a glorified Clip Show.
We are just at the end of SEASON ONE, people!

The Framing Device is this guy getting a meeting to talk about the dangerous threat of aliens...

...to some sort of select Government Committee.  
What's their name?  What do they do?

Never explained.

Regardless, our guy has connections and he's going to tell them all about recent events like...

That's a young Lochlyn Munro on the left btw.

The first Episode- Sandkings- and how they might actually still be around.

This is all just a theory of his, mind you.

He sets up clips from other Episodes so far this Season.

We get the 'sexy' Episode with Alyssa Milano taken over by an alien spore.
They brought to prop, so...yea?

We get what was literally the previous Episode- Birthright- about a guy who's actually an alien and he didn't know it.

Plus this Episode about a House that absorbs/eats people.

It apparently has an even younger than last time(s) Ryan Reynolds in it, as shown by his weird CGI outline here.

There's also Clips from 'The Voyage Home,' which was also in the previous Clip Show Episode I covered.

As part of the rebuttal to his testimony, one of the Committee tees up clips from 'Corner of the Eye,' which is then explained as being Aliens too.

After presenting his case, the Committee says that they will not file his report.  The guy flips and grabs a gun to shoot (and kill) the head of the Committee.

He's convinced that he was an alien.  He's not.

After he's dragged away, we learn that Munro and the stern woman on the group actually were the whole time.  The invasion continues!

The End!

I'm both annoyed and marginally impressed.

The former is because the Season is ending with a Clip Show.  This format gives them a chance to so many disparate and unique Stories.

The best we got to end an impactful Season...was this?

As for the other part, I will give them credit for being selective.
The Theme is Aliens, so they skipped over Episodes like 'Mary 23' and 'I, Robot' instead of trying to make them work.
This also means that all of Season 1's Alien Episodes are canon to each other...at least in relation to this one.

The Finale Clip Show was simulations- they didn't even try.

Having Don S. Davis in your Episode also keeps you slightly above a failing grade.

It is likely the most skippable Episode of the Season and its twist was extremely obvious.  What's less obvious is why they posed this Picture like the Stars of some sort of ABC Sitcom...

Next time, I skip the 6th lowest rated Episode (as I already covered it).  Let's instead jump to #7 and it's from Season 7 to boot.  See you then...
