Ironically, he promised his wife he would never buy a farm. (Green Acres)
Righrt!?
Yeah, that made me chuckle too. In fact, if I remember right, Green Acres came on sometime, maybe even right after, The Outer Limits. GA was another of my faves that year.
@@henrybrowne7248 the show was in COLOR..it couldve been a year after
Many of those "stock" actors never got typecasted
Leslie Nielsen was in these dramas for years. Until he tried comedy on AIRPLANE
Well looks like he got another wife after this....😏🥴😳
But Eddie didn't give up the farm-- he gave up the wife.
I LOVE THIS ONE! "Tumbleweed Acres " is the place to be!
I kept expecting Zsa Zsa to appear at any moment!
@@georgehenderson7783 Eva, actually.
@@kbjerke Oh that's right, Zsa Zsa was her sister, my mistake, dahling! 🤭
@@georgehenderson7783 They were BOTH extraordinary! LOL Loved the show.
@@kbjerke It was a great show!
More full episodes of The outer limits please
She is more of a pain than the tumble weeds are.
LOL! In the alternate ending, he throws her into the fire, the tumbleweeds dance around and then they leave him alone.
@@jody6851 If I remember right, I think it starts to rain, and those weeds do not like the rain. ???
Eva Gabor would say darling what are those tumbleweeds doing in our bedroom..
Yep. Give me Lisa
@@rayberger2694 Close but no cigar. The “rain saves the day” is the conclusion to a first season episode, Specimen: Unknown. Not one of the best either, but okay. Starts off great then suffers from too many cringey moments involving Gail Kobe’s character, but enough cool stuff goes on to make it at least watchable. Strangely, that episode was the series’ highest rated during its original network run.
Lieutenant Edward Albert Heimberger. Hero at the battle of Tarawa. He and his boat rescued 47 wounded marines and supervised the rescue of 30 more. Rest in peace Mr. Douglas.
Remarkable hero!
Wow! He looked great for a long time after that😊
If only Eva Gabor had played his wife in this.
Hi how are you doing 😊
@@allysonhanks9159 I'm doing fine Allyson. I hope you are too.
Can we please get some new full Outer Limits Episodes Please 🙏. Thank You so much
One of my favorite episodes.
Tumbleweeds, frogs, a dead guy. It could really have been campy, but the cast commits and damn if this episode didn't scare little me. So good!
Hi Chris how are you doing 😊
@@allysonhanks9159 Doing great. Hope you are, too!
@@Cmdr1962 hello I’m doing good, nice to hear from you Chris. I hope you don’t mind me writing you? I’m from LA
Great Episode and Eddie Albert, what a fantastic actor and class act!
"When we get back to town, I'll give up the idea of living on a farm". I could almost hear Eva Gabor's voice "Oh, Oliver". June Havoc does resemble Ms. Gabor somewhat. I loved this episode and "Green Acres" too.
Great observation Sam. When I recently saw this, green acres came immediately to mind. CBS must have seen this episode.
I was attacked by a tumbleweed too, once, and I fought it valiantly for about 3 minutes. It's one of the few plants that can cause you considerable injury after it's dead and being blown about by the wind. The tumbleweed has sharp large thorns that pierce flesh and their woody stems are like steel. Very nasty plant...lovely song written about them, though, sung by the Sons of the Pioneers, and I love that song. But the real plant... wow. 🎉
Ken Curtis sang it, when he was with the sons of the pioneers
He had a great voice. You wouldnt know it from the Festus character he played
Yeah, I'm from West Texas, I've been attacked by tumbleweeds many times. I survived somehow and made it out alive. I live in Oklahoma now, I'm NEVER going back. 😂
@@sonnyroy497 That's good...I have a donkey who wants to join you in Oklahoma. I bought him there ten years ago, and ride him frequently in NH. If he's pointed west, he wants to keep going! I have convinced him it would be better for him to stay in New England, just for now. 🐴😄
This was such a wonderful and thought provoking episode. Always loved this one. Eddie Albert was very convincing.
I hope so, because my first thought was, "Tumbleweed? That's pretty lame..." (And The Outer Limits had some pretty good monsters.)
it gets derided a lot due to the perceived comical nature of the weeds and the frogs, but it really is a deep episode. Simple in concept yet really gets you thinking.
@@jamesrav Agreed. The concept of an alien in the purest sense of the word, evolving in a manner completely different to corporeal humans is both thought provoking and fascinating…and highly realistic in my view!
Andy: "Green Acres is the place for me. Farm living is the life for me. Land spreading out so far and wide. Keep Manhattan, the desert and these evil tumbleweeds! Just give me the countryside!!"
"Dawlink I love you but give me Pawk Avenue!"
@@benjaminnead8557 haha LOL😂
Not Andy..Olivaaah😁
It even has its own Mr. Ziffel, the "Lamont" character. Which makes you wonder about the disappearing pig.
@@Oppeldeldoc1 Arnold.
Her hysterical caterwauling is a great detriment to this episode that actually has an interesting idea at its core. Albert Honeycutt was disappointing in his role but Eddie Albert’s performance in the climax is tremendous. The dissolving frog scene later on is pretty cool.
I remember this one. I really liked it, one of the best. I don't remember if it was scary but it certainly was interesting. Here in the desert, 'attacks' by tumbleweeds are common on windy days. I really liked Eddie Albert then too.
Eddie Albert was a great guy and fantastic actor and War Hero!!!!!
Eddie Albert was a WW2 hero who made many trips to the beach on D Day, not only to land troops but also to remove the wounded.
Actually, is was the battle of Tarawa.
@@jerryc2709 Thanks for the correction...
@@jerryc2709
Actually, it was Hooterville.
Eddie Albert was a fantastic actor and Terrific Gentleman!!!!!
*the Invisible's episode was also really good if not unnerving at the time*
Let me just grab this tumbleweed and let my psychosis smash it all over my face.
This made me laugh!
my dad used to let me stay up and watch this on a Sunday night. Scared me to death I still get chills when I listen to the fade out music
My older brother ate these up while I hid behind the sofa 😅👏👏
Gee, every time Eddie Albert's characters wanted to trade in everything to live on farms, they got into trouble! (Remember Green Acres?)
I keep expecting Mr. Haney to show up to sell them a genu-WINE anti-ail-LEE-yen Re-buffer (a pitchfork).
SHOW THE ENTIRE EPISODE
I got a story about attacking tumbleweeds. It was November 1976 at Fort Bliss Texas. I was in Basic Training. Me and three other guys were going back to our barracks after KP, it was almost dark. Ther was a storm brewing and it was very windy.
Out in the desert past the chain link fence around the post, there was a huge black hairy pulsating monster coming towards us. It was about 300 yards away. It got to the fence and hopped right over. It's big as a house. It picks up speed and comes on fast. The other guys ran into the barracks but I had to see what this thing was.
I stepped aside and it crashed into a barracks walk. It was hundreds of tumbleweeds.
What?😳😅third one to say this😀
You really have to admire her courage in the face of adversity. That woman is a rock.
Pack of cigs did the trick😂here take these honey🤣
😂
This was the missing pilot episode of Green Acres.
:30 "And I'll give up the idea of living on a farm honey..." I guess she didn't make it out.... "Green Acres is the place to be, farm living is the life for me, land stretching out so far and wide, keep Manhattan and give me that country side."
I love this episode!
As child I was always warned about the dangers of tumbleweed. After seeing this I'm glad I listened.
Eddie: ‘these are just weeds; Russian thistle, salt wort.😁I’m an engineer, not an ornithologist ‘😅
Back in the 1950's and 1960's women were always portrayed as frightened, screaming, fainting idiots. My mother, aunts, grandmothers didn't react like this to anything. They stepped up and were brave and emotionally strong & controlled with any conflict. No screaming or fainting.
In the 40s, women welded ships and tanks.
Filled bombs. Etc..
What many would rather do, is not have to do that.
I think. The MORE women do, the Lazier men get
I remember women fainting and being carried off by the monster.
For years I have observed women screaming on film and real life screaming in situations that don’t make sense I personally witnessed a whole car of woman scream when they saw a snake crossing the road I’ve asked my wife many times why and after all these years she still can’t give me a answer lol
Her contribution to this episode was terrific. Her observation of the farmer’s home was interesting. And her intuition about the phenomenon too. But the constant screaming was a joke👎
I was a barely more than a toddler when I saw this episode. I was terrified of large bushes and hedges for years after.
I have creatures like these attacking me weekly in my yard. I think they're called weeds
I think being stuck out in a desert with that hysterical woman would be far worse than any other threat.
Eddie showed incredible patience with her; until he dumped her for Eva😁
@@ramongonzalez2112 😅😂. 🙄
Prequel to Green Acres.
ONLY THE 1960S COULD TURN THE HARMLESS TUMBLEWEED INTO A LIFE-THREATENING HORRIFIC EXPERIENCE 🔥🔥🔥
"I'll give up the idea of living on a farm."
Green Acres.
That eerie music really adds to the general creepiness of the scene.
Not Green but Dry Acres!
Of course, as we all know, he just couldn't give up the idea of living on a farm...That's when they knew this relationship was over...
Hi how are you doing 😊
I remember this one!
Although Karen Thorne did get on my nerves somewhat,June Havoc was outstanding as Karen Thorne.June Havoc gets my vote.I watched this episode when it originally came on,as well as the other episodes.(Cry of Silence) was one of my favorite episodes.I never get tired of watching (Cry of Silence).Gypsy Rose Lee was June Havoc's sister by the way.
"I'll give up the idea of living on a farm, honey"
-"Oh no you WONT!!! - cue Green Acres music!!!
Reminds me of Lt. Frank Drebin of The Naked Gun when he is attacked by a pillow and a towel.
The Outer Limits and Twilight Zone, the best science fiction ever, nothing comes close !
Watch One Step Beyond!!
I would say that TZ was more fantasy than science fiction most of the time and as far as the "science" part of science fiction. OL did not worry about scientific accuracy -- Star Trek was the best real science fiction in the 1960s by far.
@@terriluginbyhl161
You took my comment.
@@20alphabet it’s a great show! I’m watching an episode right now!!!
@@jeffmiller6954 The Time Tunnel was great too !!!!!
He did not give up the idea of living out of town,he moved to Green Acres.🤭
Now when watch this I think of Curly from City Slickers singing Tumbling Tumbleweeds.
Mister Haney shows up later in his truck and he just so happens to have a "tumbleweed eradication device" for sale.
That’s not Mr. Haney. The actor is Arthur Hunnicutt. Haney was Pat Buttrum Jr.
@@michaelschramm1064 Well, choke my chicken! You're right!
.."I"ll give the idea of living on a farm honey", hahah, he's headed for Green Acres, hahaha...
this is so hilarious so great!
Hi Clay how are you doing 😊
@@allysonhanks9159 hey I'm good hope you're well😊
@@parkerexplores Yes I’m doing fine nice to hear from you Clay.. Surprisingly you look like a long lost friend I met sometime in San Francisco and we shared a couple of drinks at the beach but maybe I’m just seeing you in another person even though I feel connected already from far. I’m from LA. What about you if i may ask?
@@allysonhanks9159 I'm from Texas:)
@@parkerexplores I hope you’re doing well. I’m a jeweler by profession and have a small shop here in the LA district.
It would be nice to know you more and maybe we could share some common interests. I know it’s strange how we met but strange things happen and sometimes they become the best we least expect.
They shoulda stayed at Green Acres.
Cant make a "bear" out of a tumbleweed!
Wrong.
@@fdraphael1888 Why?
@@splurge4749 Because to me, they pulled it off. This episode has a creepy vibe, which is hard to pull off in an hour long show.
@@fdraphael1888 “Bear” was the producers nickname for monsters. There was no effort to create makeup for the show. During the second season, the production cost took a nose dive because of limited funds. Another reason the show was canceled abruptly.
@@splurge4749 Right, but I think this one got by on a strong storyline, creep factor, good acting. There were a few 2nd season standouts to me. I love Wolf 359, Demon Glass Hand, and a few others. Season one was off the charts though...Wow..
‘Here, take these.’😂Nothing like a nicotine hit to calm you down in the sixties.😅’Here, take some emphysema honey.’🤣
Surprised Mr. Haney didn't show up with a solution. lol
I've never forgotten this one..and never liked tumbleweeds ever since!
Best thing to do is set the tumbleweeds ablaze. Plenty of fuel .
Tumbleweeds have stickers! That would have hurt!
This movie scared me so much when I was little
All-LEE-var!!! Those tumbullskveeds! Are FOLLOWING me! 😮🤓😎✌🏻
Wha…??? The Outer Limits may have taken control of people’s television sets the week this was broadcast, but I’m betting these people wish they hadn’t! 😂
Great scary TV series!!! But "Hysterical women" who just couldn't handle stress and either needed hugs from strong men or more typically a man's slap in the face to shake them out of it... was such standard fare back in the day! Pretty annoying actually. Now adays I'm good with more of a Wonder Woman vibe!
Right? Make you wonder which is worse, evil sentient tumbleweeds or hysterical women in pearl necklaces.
Of course, it makes a lot more sense when you realize just how many middle-class women back in the 50s and 60s were being given prescription methamphetamine. Particularly the wives of screenwriters, it would seem.
Yep. Or a strong man that defends his wife by pushing a tumbleweed into his own face.😂
Speilberg? Eat your heart out..
Now that`s entertainment.
I hate when that happens
Not Green,
Andy, dude…you didn’t see those weeds back up when you approached with the fire?
I thought that also but I guess in the darkness and with the torch flame creating a visual distraction, he didn't notice it. At least that's what I think.
Nuttin like a tumbleweed sandwich 😁
FANTASTIC ,, BURN THE BUGGERS ,,
BURN BABY BURN ❗️
The Lone Star Steak House Tumbleweed gives me explosive gas.
The Force! It surrounds ALL living things...🤓😎✌🏻
This is a great episode. The director should have had the lady tone down the hysteria. It’s too much
Another great one worth seeing is “A Feasibility Study”
Maybe she can make him some "Flapjacks"!!!
Green 💚 power attacks the Karen .
This episode scared me as a child, but now I see that the tumbleweeds were just trying to stop her from smoking. They didn't want her to get lung cancer.
hope they got smart and used the fire on the weeds, despite the wife, kind of a nut job
💥 QUESTION;;
Where can I watch the Outer Limits ????
On Pluto TV. Plays episodes from 1963
You can probably stream it from TH-cam for a small price. I have the first season disc set.
It starts off a little goofy, but it actually has a really good ending.
Greeeeeeen Acres is the Place To Be.... LOL!!
theme from 'One Step Beyond'
Harry Lubin, who apparently shot his musical load on Demon with a Glass Hand. That whole score was outstanding. Other music in season 2? Not so much.
Pilot for spin off : Green Acres where is Mr Haney when you need him?
Fun Quiz: Which one of these two actors won the Congressional Medal of Honor in WW2?
Hi Sally - respectfully, from a fellow Outer Limits Fan, there is no such thing as the "Congressional" Medal of Honor, but the common misconception is understandable.
The Medal of Honor is a Combat Medal awarded by the Executive Branch (President). The confusion is likely a result of the "Congressional Medal of Honor Society" - an organization, created by an Act of Congress in 1958, whose Members have been awarded the Medal of Honor.
There is a "Congressional Gold Medal", the highest Medal awarded to Civilians by the United States Congress, which may be awarded for many reasons, and is not specific to Military Service.
If your Post was referring to Actor Eddie Albert, he was a member of the US Coast Guard who transferred to the US Naval Reserve, serving during WW II.
He was awarded the Bronze Star with a "Combat V" (meaning a Bronze Star awarded for Valor or Heroism during Combat, rather than some other merit or achievement) for acting as a Coxswain, commanding a boat that rescued 41 Marines and supervised the rescue of 30 more.
@@pastateconstablesoffice Good explanation. Thanks.
@@pastateconstablesoffice Wow thank you for that officer.
Eddie Albert had a choice between this psycho or the nutty Hungarian on Green Acres.
Oliver Douglas lost his first wife after the tumbleweed, aka 'Russian saltwart', viciously attacked her and being so traumatized from that event, he married one of the Gabor sisters and moved to Green Acres and befriended Mr. Haney and Fred Ziffel?? I have do have questions...
Cry of Silence, a pretty deasont Outer Limits episode
We know they make it out alive because they end up in Green Acres.
That's June Havoc!
🤣😂😆😆😆 Hilarity +++
名優エディ・アルバートも出てるんですね～🤔
He lied through his teeth to her he bought Green acres!
i thought i remember this one,,,,, wasn't it some kind of thing, or group, where as one scene 'they' were frogs? and something else, and the tumble weeds were just one of them?
I remember this episode from the corner of my mind... It must have scared the beejesus out a pre k boy
Please make a revival of this series I'll do it just give me permission
A really interesting concept wasted. What were they thinking?
0:35 A farm...before Green Acres?
And white hair..singing theme song
Did they choose him from This show?
He experimented with comedy on green acres...similar to jack klugman
Henning was so sucessful in the 60s, he was asked to make a third series without CBS even seeing a pilot.
Don't know why he cast Albert, but this might be a thought.
Disagree. The ep has its issues, but it’s far from worthless. As the second season goes, it’s in the top half.
Outer Limits had stinkers from both seasons honestly.
@@nunyabizness6595 Very few shows don’t. So few that I can’t think of any off-hand.
What is the name of this ep and are you going to be showing the whole thing?
Cry of Silence
@@stantheman9072 Thanks Stan. You are the Man.
God this is great.
This Green acres Eva Gabor complaining.
Oh Id so wanna see Eva Gabor in this
the hysterical screams of a 1950s woman
This episode was from the same writer who did sentient rocks in season one. Kinda a pattern there.
@Account NumberEight LOL!!!!
And the geologist in that episode pushed that rubber rock monster into his own face too😂
The women were hysterical back then.
THIS IS GREEN ACRES , I MEAN DRY TUMBLEWEEDS
so,,,what happened?
Green Acres ain't the place for me.
Anyone who saw this never looked at tumble weeds the same
