I grew up watching this series, and having seen the DVD set( released at long last!)I still feel this series holds up remarkably well.Leonard Nimoy hosts for all six seasons, and does a commendable job of presenting all stories seriously, and sometimes interacts with the people involved(like in 'Learning ESP') It is commendable how it presents ancient cultures like Native Americans or the Incas with respect and no condescension.This series was directed, scored, and edited with skill, style, and care, and presents the subjects(like 'Ghosts' & 'UFOs') with palpable atmosphere that its modern imitators either fail at, or don't even bother attempting.This show holds up, and will enjoy watching it many more times.

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.

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

Want to know about Bigfoot, The Honey Island Swamp Monster of Louisiana, and other monsters and the unexplained then go "In Search of". "In Search of" does a great job of exploring the hidden while at the same time the program searches for answers by research and actual reports and accounts. Leonard Nimoy is great at hosting this series his voice is among the best ever. Watch the reruns of "In Search of" on the History Channel.
