Synopsis

In Search of... is a television series that was broadcast weekly from 1977 to 1982, devoted to mysterious phenomena. It was created after the success of three one-hour TV documentaries produced by creator Alan Landsburg: In Search of Ancient Astronauts in 1973, In Search of Ancient Mysteries and The Outer Space Connection, both in 1975. All three featured narration by Rod Serling, who was the initial choice to host the spin-off show. After Serling's death, Leonard Nimoy was selected to be the host.

Dotbankey A lot of fun.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Stebaer4 I'm very fascinated with Reincarnation,Life after Death,Out of Body Experiences,The Supernatural,The Phantasma Goria,and as well as all strange phenomena including Big foot & The Lochness Monster.I recall looking forward to seeing this show each week while I was in Middle School.These are also fun reminiscences too when I think of them.Whether they're local around the world,around the country,In the Great Beyond and Back,you just name it and this show's just right for me.As anybody of whom knows me would also agree.I also enjoy the miraculous places spanning the globe,Medjugorje,Lourdes, Fatima, Guateloupe,etc.Truthfully, Stephen "Steve" G.

hamsamich I love the "In Search Of" series. One reason is the ghostly music in the background that gave the already strange topics an extra eerie quality. The music is very similar to a newer electronic group called "Boards of Canada". If you enjoyed this series because of the music, purchase some "Boards of Canada" (BOC) and you may get a kick out of it. I recommend the album "Music Has the Right To Children". Boards of Canada also has a new release called "Geogaddi". I have heard some of it and it also has a ghostly quality to it. Other groups that may have the same sound lie in the "Trip-Hop" genre of electronic music. Groups such as Waldek, Goldfrapp, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Air and Zero 7 sound similar but nothing seems to be as close to the original "In Search Of" music like BOC, especially since BOC relies almost entirely on instruments and not many vocals. ~ Jim Faulkner
Movie Nuttball In Search Of ... was a very good show. It was hosted by Leonard Nimoy of the great Star Trek saga. The show would investigate into big mysteries such as cryptids, alien life, unexplained phenomena such as ghosts, and other mysteries. This comment is for the episode In Search Of Bigfoot and Lost Children. The Bigfoot segment was very good. It goes through the basic information like what is a Sasquatch, where their located etc. It shows some experts saying their opinions and such. The most notable one is that one expert says that the Patterson Bigfoot is not a man in a suit and if it was he would have to be a huge person and a skilled one. In the segment of the Lost Children it shows how these children are left in the wild and have been adopted if you will by all kinds of animals and how their behavior is not like human behavior. I think these segments were very good and Nimoy's narration is very good! I am not sure in this series is still on television on A&E but if it is check it out because it was a good show!
mm-39 This was on A&E for a while then ran its course. I did not mind it some of the shows were spookie, but most were just weird. The conclusion, and answers really stretch logic. I know it makes for good TV, but bad for real life. As a kid I loved the show. Now as an adult I find In Search of weak. Monsters, ghost and UFO's were given too much leeway. I be a hard hitt questions were needed. I found a few of the shows could be true, then others were weird. The missing POW, and life after death were interesting. Over the years I bet it will come back on re runs. Does anyone know if the show is showen in Canada? They had a show about outerspace and the future with the shuttle how dated. Space kids or some 70's things. When did the show go off the air 81? Was there talk about making a new show? I gotta go see ya
