Science Fiction Theatre (1955–1957)
10/10
Please excuse my dim memories of this series

Warning: Spoilers
Hawai'i didn't have TV of any kind until the early 1960's, but when this series arrived, I remember being enthralled by it's "Science stretched into possibility" stories. I remember a few snippets: An easily shaped and cut material that could flatten any bullet fired at it! (In spite of appearing opaque on one side, the wearer could see through the material!!); An enzyme that could separate compounds in a solution by density! (Derived from jungle ants/termites?); An apparatus that allowed a blind boy to see colored lights via emotions, "that's a sad color"; A spacecraft caught in Earth's gravitational field tried to communicate with servicemen in a remote Arctic base, "YORD." Before Rod Serling's "The Twilight Zone," this series suggested what might be just around the corner in the world of Science. I'd love to see it again, if only to confirm/relive these foggy memories.
