Dick Van Dyke and the UFO invasion of the 1960′s
January 4, 2009 on 5:30 am | In extraterrestrial, Flying Saucers, Paranormal, space alien, UFO PICTURES, UFO VIDEOS, UFOs | 2 CommentsI remember as a little kid the excitement started by two television shows regarding invasions from outer space. One was the classic “The Twilight Zone” created by Rod Serling and it’s episode “To Serve Man”. That episode was so scary people were under the jug for weeks. That means they had an extra jolt of alcohol to soothe their nerves. The second tv episode was a take on that Twilight Zone episode and it appeared on the tv classic show “The Dick Van Dyke Show”. In this episode titled “It May Look Like A Walnut”, comedy writer Rob Petrie, played by star Dick Van Dyke encounters what he thinks is a practical joke played on him by his wife Laura played by Mary Tyler Moore. It guest stars the legendary showman Danny Thomas which gives it a double dose of must-see. Don’t watch if you’re allergic to walnuts!
I bring up this episode because it shows how the imagination can run away with oneself. The UFO field is still mysterious after 60 years of analysis and that says more about ourselves than the various theories and discoveries.

“To Serve Man” was one of the best episodes of “The Twilight Zone”. The aliens wanted to use humans in their recipes. Let’s hope any real aliens will be vegetarians.
