VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA SEASON 4 VOL. 2 1964-1968 (FOX)

Well here are the final 13 episodes of the classic series.

THE RETURN OF BLACKBEARD 12-31-67...The ghost of Blackbeard returns to wreck havoc on the Seaview in order to take it over. Malachi Throne stars.

TERRIBLE LEPRECHAUN 1-7-68...The first episode of 1968 stars Walter Burke as a good and an evil leprechaun causing havoc on the Seaview in search of a huge gold stash beneath the ocean. Easily the weakest episode of the entire run.

THE LOBSTER MAN 1-21-68...Vic Lundin stars as an alien from an aquatic world bent on destroying the Earth and the Seaview.

NIGHTMARE 1-28-68...Excellent episode. Crane receives a distress call from the Seaview only to return and find it mostly empty and the what crew members are left are trying to kill him. Paul Mantee stars. This is very well made and a damn tense episode.

THE ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN 2-4-68...After rescuing two members of a climate control experiment, the Seaview is invaded by a savage killing monster. Another well made episode.

SECRET OF THE DEEP 2-11-68...The Seaview is sent, along with an intelligence expert to find a group intent onm blackmailing the entire world for gold bouillon. They encounter a giant creature and other terrors as well. Mark Richman stars.

MAN BEAST 2-18-68...Excellent episode involving Crane being turned into a savage, killing beast when exposed to a certain gas created by a scheming scientist. Lawrence Montaigne stars.

SAVAGE JUNGLE 2-25-68...While investigating why the Italian coast has been overrun with jungle vegetation, the Seaview is invaded by an alien along with his three silver faced soldiers. Perry Lopez stars.

FLAMING ICE 3-3-68...The Seaview investigates why the polar caps are melting and stumbles upon a race of Ice Men living there who are after nuclear fuel.

ATTACK 3-10-68...Kowalski and Nelson are captured by aliens while investigating the destruction of a Naval fleet by a UFO. Skip Homier and Kevin Hagen star.

EDGE OF DOOM 3-17-68...Nelson and the Seaview are carrying a top secret defense weapon and Crane is suspected of being an enemy agent. Very well done episode.

THE DEATH CLOCK 3-24-68...Chris Robinson stars as Mallory, a mysterious crewman who has a 4th Dimension machine that is capable of sending people back and fourth thru time. The episode is well done and I liked it, but it seems to never gel well.

NO WAY BACK 3-31-68...Henry Jones returns as Mr. Pem, the time traveler. This time he is trying to use the Seaview to change history anmd once again he and Nelson must face off in a battle for survival.

And there you are, the 4th and final season of the greatest Irwin Allen TV show ever made. The last few episodes waned a little, but that is always to be expected. However, Voyage still stands as one of the most fantastic adventures ever to grace the small screen.
