Sir, I am dubious that you have actually traveled from the past to share your experience.
More like 14 episodes, randomly shifted around to accommodate sportsball running long, sometimes shown in the WRONG ORDER because nobody could be bothered to care about spaceships and robots. That's what I recall about televised scientifiction in my youth.

lion food: [IBM] n. Middle management or HQ staff (by extension,
administrative drones in general).
From an old joke about two
lions who, escaping from the zoo, split up to increase their
chances but agreed to meet after two months.
When they do meet,
one is skinny and the other overweight. The thin one says "How
did you manage? I ate a human just once and they turned out a
small army to chase me --- guns, nets, it was terrible. Since then
I've been reduced to eating mice, insects, even grass."
The fat
one replies "Well, *I* hid near an IBM office and ate a
manager a day. And nobody even noticed!"
