What happens
Rocky Jones, Space Ranger is an American science fiction television serial originally broadcast in syndication beginning in October 1953. The show lasted for only one season produced over two recording blocks and, though syndicated sporadically, dropped into obscurity. Because it was produced on black-and-white film, rather than being broadcast live as were most other TV space operas of the day, it has survived in reasonably good condition. The filmed format also allowed more elaborate special effects and sets, exterior scenes, and much better episode continuity. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
