I believe it was Doug Phillips. I'd have to do some digging to get Tony's last name. To answer your question, though, the series had no actual ending -- they never got home permanently. ABC wisely cancelled the series before that could be done. By the way, I have this collector's item around here -- a 3-D Viewmaster pack of the Time Tunnel opening episode. Since the 3-D pictures had to be taken directly on the set (not from the film) there are some interesting effects -- like microphones sticking down from booms above the actors' heads. The mikes look really good in 3-D. --Lauren--

#R:vortex:-30000:inmet:9000010:000:776 inmet!porges Apr 19 13:45:00 1984 Trivia note on the last Time Tunnel: The last story shown was a two- parter in which a bad guy planted a bomb in the lab and then Tunneled away. Doug and Tony spend two shows trying to find him in various times and the bomb is eventually located. The bad guy gets away, and it looks like the setup for the non-existent second season is for the two of them to be following the bad guy all over time to catch him. The reason I bring this up is that the final three-parter of Mork and Mindy ended exactly the same way: Mork and Mindyare to be time-hopping running from (or running after, I forget) an evil alien. And then the show was cancelled. -- Don Porges ...harpo!inmet!porges ...hplabs!sri-unix!cca!ima!inmet!porges ...yale-comix!ima!inmet!porges
