  5. Hi Le0pard13:

    Outstanding, sir! You've successfully identified our first gallery image (and a tough one too...). I love Fun & Games, a great Outer Limits episode and an early "duel to the death" example in cult television.

    Excellent!

    best,
    John

    A couple of wild guesses...
    3. The Starlost
    10. Makes me think of an Irwin Allen show, maybe Land of the Giants?
    13. Looks a little like Sebastian Spence, but I only know him from First Wave & this looks like a different show.
    Wild guesses for sure!
    Always a pleasant distraction on a Monday.
    Hope this finds ye well.
    Dave

  8. Hi folks,

    The identifications on the duel to the death keep rollin' in...

    Randal, yes! Excellent! #9 is indeed from the Angel first season episode "The Ring." Well played, sir! :)

    And Dave, you recognized # 3 from The Starlost, "The Goddess Calabra." Brilliant. That was a toughie too.

    And Brian C., man, you also got The Starlost answer (awesome!) but Dave just beat you to it.

    Remaining: #10 and # 13!

    best to all!
    John

    #10 is from Farscape - looks like Crais and Crichton frolicking in Maldis' lair in "That Old Black Magic"

  10. Hi Woodchuckgod!

    Yes, great identification, my friend. That's Farscape's "That Old Black Magic." Very nice work on a difficult image...

    best,
