Synopsis

Insight is an American religious-themed weekly anthology series that aired in syndication from October 1960 to 1983. Produced by Paulist Productions in Los Angeles, the series presented half-hour dramas illuminating the contemporary search for meaning, freedom, and love. Insight was an anthology series, using an eclectic set of story telling forms including comedy, melodrama, and fantasy to explore moral dilemmas. The series was created by Roman Catholic priest Ellwood E. "Bud" Kieser, the founder of Paulist Productions. A member of the Paulist Fathers, an evangelistic Catholic order of priests, he worked in the entertainment community in Hollywood as a priest-producer and occasional host, using television as a vehicle of spiritual enrichment. Many of the episodes of the series were videotaped at CBS Television City and then Metromedia Square.

Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Cary Wilson You can't tell me nothing about insight , this was my show ! Amazon , Netflix ,Google or somebody better start digging this old show up and make some money . Insight was a faith base show that explored a variety of real life issues in a half an hour time period. The episode "All Out" is a favorite of mine because it's about ...what would you do for money even if your life was on the line .
Emmjewels Oh my goodness...what memories "Insight" and "This is the Life" bring back to me even now. In a world that is rapidly changing and moving further and further away from the God of the Bible, these two series had some true life lessons, and gave you something to really think about no matter what was going on around you.Sad to say I'm not surprised they're no longer on the air, ABC one of the very 'few' channels at that day and time to even air shows of this nature (as well as the 'famous' Davey and Goliath claymation series), what an awful shame we don't get to see those shows right now when we need them the most.If there was 'any' way that I could get them back on television, I'd do it in a flash, without a moments hesitation, as I also remember actors like Martin Sheen and a few notable others who made wonderful guest appearances on the show.
shango7200 "Insight" and "This is the Life" were two of TV's great "Hangover Morning" shows if you came home all messed up from Saturday night partying.....stark, creepy and presented like play filmed in a church auditorium. Big stars must have done this show for personal reasons--not for the paycheck--this was a very cheaply produced show! Yes, with all the CRAP on DVD , this needs to be seen!Lloyd Bridges was on it way too much though. Deborah Winters was a teen actress who was in one LSD episode. She was great, and this lead to her teen trauma feature film; "The People Next Door"--which almost looked like the feature length version of "Insight" !
ggb-2 I was amazed to finally find some facts on this program that effected me as a teen. I had not realized that the program was 'Insight' and I always remembered the episode as 'The Rose Colored Glasses' but evidently was wrong all these years. Typing in Beau Bridges brought up the episode 'The Poker Game'!! And yep, that is/was it. Several older fellows playing poker with a younger man wearing rose colored glasses eventually become fed up with his radical views and decide he is a bit of a slacker representing the tangibility of the much talked about 'Generation Gap' of the time. In short a 'revolutionary/radical/hippy'. I think he was berated at one point as 'seeing life through rose colored glasses' which was not at all what the group of men considered acceptable, being members of the 'establishment'. I believe the show certainly helped inspire a generation (along with "Easy Rider") to vote for Bill Clinton 24 years later. Thank you IMDB, and Mike, and Kenneth, for allowing me to touch this puzzle that has been on my mind all these years. [I sure would like to see the episode again, but I have no clue as to how to make that happen. Please write me if anyone has knowledge.] Thanx again. Greg.
