Learning ESP

Season 1 · May 28, 1977 · 30m

This episode explores Extrasensory Perception or ESP. Does ESP exist and can it be taught and learned? Is it a trait that we all used to have before language took its place? Is it a gift that only a few have? These and other questions are discussed as well as the work being done by laboratories and scientists around the world. Is ESP real and can it be of value? A study being performed at the University of California, Davis is looked at in detail and both believers and non-believers weigh in on the subject.

Synopsis

In Search of... is a TV series that was broadcast weekly from 1977 to 1982, devoted to mysterious phenomena. It was created after the success of three one-hour TV documentaries produced by creator Alan Landsburg: In Search of Ancient Astronauts in 1973, In Search of Ancient Mysteries and The Outer Space Connection, both in 1975. All three featured narration by Rod Serling, who was the initial choice to host the spin-off show. After Serling's death, Leonard Nimoy was selected to be the host.
