The Time Tunnel was another Irwin Allen production. The premise follows the U.S. government effort to construct a time machine for the top-secret Project Tic-Toc. The too-on-the-nose experiment is hidden 800 floors deep beneath Arizona, where the cost and utility of the Time Tunnel is debated.
When two scientists are plunged into the vortex of time, falling into one place in history after the next, the government continues to fund the project to bring the scientists home. The show was canceled before the filming of the scientists' safe return.

Gotta hope this stuff is kept in check as much as possible. We already know that voter suppression and gerrymandering will continue to be obstacles to overcome.

As with the Life on Mars adaptation I'm a big fan of both the US and UK versions of Ghosts.

Inside the Party Switch that Blew Up North Carolina Politics
Tricia Cotham, a Democrat who supported abortion rights, was encouraged to run for a state House seat by powerful Republicans. After she was elected, she joined them and delivered a G.O.P. supermajority.
By Kate Kelly and David Perlmutt
Kate Kelly reported from Washington and Raleigh, N.C. David Perlmutt reported from Charlotte and Mint Hill, N.C.

When Tricia Cotham, a former Democratic lawmaker, was considering another run for the North Carolina House of Representatives, she turned to a powerful party leader for advice. Then, when she jumped into the Democratic primary, she was encouraged by still other formidable allies.
She won the primary in a redrawn district near Charlotte, and then triumphed in the November general election by 18 percentage points, a victory that helped Democrats lock in enough seats to prevent, by a single vote, a Republican supermajority in the state House.
Except what was unusual and not publicly known at the time was that the influential people who had privately encouraged Ms. Cotham to run were Republicans, not Democrats. One was Tim Moore, the redoubtable Republican speaker of the state House. Another was John Bell, the Republican majority leader.
