In Search Of...

In Search Of ... was a TV documentary series produced from 1976 to 1982. It was hosted by Leonard Nimoy, and each week the series would conduct an "investigation" into popular paranormal phenomena it should also be noted that the series did not use sensationalism and also looked at historical phenomenon as well such as the Lincoln Assassination and the mystery of Jack The Ripper. The series generally cast its subjects in a positive light, airing footage and interviews with "researchers" into the areas of psychic phenomena, UFOss, Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, missing persons including Amelia Earhart, and other "fringe" areas of science.

Nimoy's popularity among science fiction fans (due to his role in the Star Trek television series) won the show a following in fandom circles. Nimoy wrote a particularly fascinating episode of the show dealing with the turbulant life of artist Vincent Van Gogh. Nimoy had played Van Gogh's brother in a one man show and set out to find out the truth about the life of the great artist. Many have said that Van Gogh was insane, but Mister Nimoy discovered evidence that he actually suffered from epilepsy. He delivered a very touching monologue at the end of the show about Theo's final moments with his brother.

When Nimoy left the series to pursue movie-related projects, the show's hosting duties were filled by Sharron Miller.
