Hello, everyone. Keep in mind the following item up for sale on eBay: tinyurl.com/b447uis listed as "unaired". This is true, but only because it is a fan-written script. Be careful. -Frank |

What is the name of the “unaired” script? I don’t recall the auction, but I suspect it was a script titled They Came From Outer Space. Over the past several years I’ve seen copies sold as if it was a real unproduced script that never made it to production. Nope, it was written by a couple of guys trying to break into the business. It was nothing sanctioned by Cannell, or given a production number. I believe the two writers responsible for that script might have went on to write for some comic books, but never for TV that I'm aware of. Paying $10 or so for a copy isn't bad as it's kind of a fun read, but do not pay some inflated price for something not legit. There's another called Double, Double, Toil, & Trouble, it’s a spec script, and like Outer Space it was never in the pipeline with Cannell. The guy who wrote it DID go on to write for TV a little bit. The only legit unproduced script floating around in collector hands is the one by Robert Culp that was almost shot at the end of the 1st season. Long Fall at Ten Two and Four. That was real, and assigned a production number. Speaking of production numbers, I have all the production numbers assigned to the produced scripts. There are indeed a few gaps which indicates numbers were assigned to scripts that were either abandoned and never finished for whatever reason or finished but never made as with the Culp script. Who knows if we will ever learn what ever became of that material. |

Ah ok I bought both those scripts “they came from outer space” and “the long fall at ten at two and four”. Well at least one is real. The other will be entertaining. I wish both were real but I didn’t break the bank on it. Oh well. Thanks for the info on this!
