The Unexpected (1952) TV Series, RAW SCAN Clip

Presented here is a clip of a raw scan from the TV Series THE UNEXPECTED (1952), with Dead End alum Billy Halop in an episode entitled "Born Again".

The half-hour series ran one season for a total of 39 episodes. We have scanned the first 13 episodes (all from 16mm) and plan to release them in Volume 1 on DVD early next year.

Many well-known guest stars appear in this rarely seen anthology series including Raymond Burr, Gale Storm, Craig Stevens, Marshall Thompson, Hans Conried, Marie Windsor, Anthony Caruso, Marjorie Reynolds, Jim Davis, Coleen Gray, Dan O'Herlihy, Bobby Driscoll, Kenneth Tobey, John Hoyt, Rochelle Hudson, Paul Guilfoyle, Paula Raymond, Dan Seymour, Lois Collier, Michael, Ansara, and many, many more.

NOTE: Although contemporary press accounts and current websites list Herbert Marshall as the host of this program, his presence is absent from the 16mm prints we've acquired.

I wasn't familiar with this series. This is right down my alley. Thanks for finding these gems and making them available.

I've been hoping to see this since the 1950's. I especially want to see 'Landscape In Black'.

They stole the ending from 6th Sense! Bruce Willis should sue!
