At first I mistook Time Tunnel for Voyagers. Voyagers was about a guy who was part of an organization who went through time and corrected things and ended up with a kid to help him (mostly because the guy sucked with history).

Castle Gudanov has a Time Elevator rather than a Time Tunnel. The elevator has a vast array of buttons that will take you to seemingly random buildings at different places in time and space. I don't use it much because the music is really annoying.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
And I share you HFC, and its source.

OK, well, this seems like the TIME to ask: does anyone remember a game where you had to go to different historial periods and do certain things, and your actions would move a counter on an orbit? Your goal was to get all the counters (there were multiple orbits) lined up.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I thought he was helped by a talking dog with glasess....

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Ya know, visually Time Tunnel is sort of the precursor of Stargate.

It starred James Darren years and years before he showed up in Quark's holosuite.
Oh. My. Goodness. I've never ever made that connection, and his face from "The Time Tunnel" is burned into my scary visual place. Wow. And Vic Fontain was always sort of familiar to me, but I've always assumed it was because he was supposed to look like somebody. I've never even thought to IMDB it. Huh.
I guess I've just assumed that none of the people who participated in this has ever done anything else. Because they were stuck in time or something.
But I've never watched "Lost in Space" or "Stargate", so at least there are more things these (or other) people did that I don't know of, and can still think that they're stuck in time.

Anyone remember a '70s show called UFO? It took place in the '80s and was about some elite guys who fought evil aliens in spinning UFOs.

I watched Time Tunnel when it first ran, but I don't remember anything about it except for the psychedelic time tunnel and an overwhelming impression of cheesiness.
Was The Tripods based on the John Christopher books?

I've never seen Time Tunnel, but a friend used to say that going down the escalators to the DC Metro (esp Rosslyn or Wheaton stops) reminded him of the Time Tunnel image.
