I mentioned TALES OF TOMORROW in my Wednesday post because it introduced me to Prokofiev, although it was only decades later that I realized that. But the show was also notable to adapting actual sf stories, in this case Arthur C. Clarkes All the Time in the World -- TV producers wouldnt be caught dead doing that today. And it helped establish an odd custom. The manner in which the words Tales of Tomorrow are intoned was also used for a kiddie show, SPACE PATROL, and decades later parodied by Jim Henson in the Muppet take-offs, PIGS IN SPACE. youtube/watch?v=FjULWQLTD3I
