It was one of many series influenced by <i><a href="/wiki/The_Twilight_Zone_(1959_TV_series)" title="The Twilight Zone (1959 TV series)">The Twilight Zone</a></i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Science_Fiction_Theatre" title="Science Fiction Theatre">Science Fiction Theatre</a></i>, though it ultimately proved influential in its own right. In the unaired pilot, it was called <i>Please Stand By</i>, but ABC rejected that title. Series creator <a href="/wiki/Leslie_Stevens" title="Leslie Stevens">Leslie Stevens</a> retitled it <i>The Outer Limits</i>. With a few changes, the pilot aired as the premiere episode, "<a href="/wiki/The_Galaxy_Being" title="The Galaxy Being">The Galaxy Being</a>." </p><p>Writers included creator Stevens and <a href="/wiki/Joseph_Stefano" title="Joseph Stefano">Joseph Stefano</a> (screenwriter of the film <i><a href="/wiki/Psycho_(1960_film)" title="Psycho (1960 film)">Psycho</a></i>), who was the Season 1 producer and creative guiding force, and who wrote more of the series' episodes than anyone. Future <a href="/wiki/Academy_Award" class="mw-redirect" title="Academy Award">Oscar-winning</a> screenwriter Robert Towne (<i><a href="/wiki/Chinatown_(1974_film)" title="Chinatown (1974 film)">Chinatown</a></i>) wrote "<a href="/wiki/The_Chameleon_(The_Outer_Limits)" title="The Chameleon (The Outer Limits)">The Chameleon</a>," the final Season 1 episode. A pair of Season 2 episodes, "<a href="/wiki/Soldier_(The_Outer_Limits)" title="Soldier (The Outer Limits)">Soldier</a>" and "<a href="/wiki/Demon_with_a_Glass_Hand" title="Demon with a Glass Hand">Demon with a Glass Hand</a>," were written by <a href="/wiki/Harlan_Ellison" title="Harlan Ellison">Harlan Ellison</a>. The latter won a Writers' Guild Award. </p><p>Writer Joseph Stefano was recruited in a late night phone call from Leslie Stevens; the two men had known each other for years. Stevens met him with composer/producer Dominic Frontiere and pitched the series to him asking him to come on as a writer and producer. Stefano, who had never produced before, felt reassured by Associate Producer Robert Justman to support him as Justman had experience in TV.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Season 1 combined science fiction and horror, while Season 2 was more focused on '<a href="/wiki/Hard_science_fiction" title="Hard science fiction">hard science fiction</a>' stories, dropping the recurring "scary monster" motif of Season 1. Each episode in Season 1 was to have a monster or creature as a critical part of the story line in a <a href="/wiki/Villain_of_the_week" title="Villain of the week">villain of the week</a> format. Season 1 writer and producer Joseph Stefano believed this element was necessary to provide fear, suspense, or at least a center for plot development. This kind of story element became known as "the bear." This device was, however, mostly dropped in Season 2 after Stefano left. </p><p>Two Season 1 episodes without a "bear" are "<a href="/wiki/The_Forms_of_Things_Unknown" title="The Forms of Things Unknown">The Forms of Things Unknown</a>" and "<a href="/wiki/Controlled_Experiment" title="Controlled Experiment">Controlled Experiment</a>," the first of which was shot in a dual format as science fiction for <i>The Outer Limits</i> and as a <a href="/wiki/Thriller_(genre)" title="Thriller (genre)">thriller</a> for a pilot for an unmade series, <i>The Unknown</i>. Actor <a href="/wiki/Barry_Morse" title="Barry Morse">Barry Morse</a>, who starred in "Controlled Experiment," states that it was made as a pilot for an unrealized science fiction/comedy series. It was the only comedic episode of <i>The Outer Limits</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Earlier Season 1 episodes with no "bear" were "<a href="/wiki/The_Hundred_Days_of_the_Dragon" title="The Hundred Days of the Dragon">The Hundred Days of the Dragon</a>" and "<a href="/wiki/The_Borderland" title="The Borderland">The Borderland</a>," made before the "bear" convention was established. Season 2 episodes <i>with</i> a "bear" are "<a href="/wiki/Keeper_of_the_Purple_Twilight" title="Keeper of the Purple Twilight">Keeper of the Purple Twilight</a>," "<a href="/wiki/The_Duplicate_Man" title="The Duplicate Man">The Duplicate Man</a>," and "<a href="/wiki/The_Probe" title="The Probe">The Probe</a>."

The "bear" in "<a href="/wiki/The_Architects_of_Fear" title="The Architects of Fear">The Architects of Fear</a>," the monstrously altered Allen Leighton, was judged by some of ABC's local affiliate stations to be so frightening that they broadcast a black screen during the "Thetan's" appearances, effectively censoring most of the show's last act. In other parts of the United States, the "Thetan" footage was tape-delayed until after the 11pm/10c news. In others, it was not shown at all. </p><p>The series was shot at KTTV (<a href="/wiki/Metromedia_Square" title="Metromedia Square">Metromedia Square</a>) on sound stage # 2.
