The Time Tunnel Fan Forum was a Yahoo group started in 2004 by Jeffrey Talbot, that had moderated membership, with 467 members at its close in 2019. The group was modestly active but received over 100 messages a month for many years.
While the forum was intentionally formed to mainly discuss The Time Tunnel (ABC Network, 1966-1967), other Irwin Allen TV series such as Lost in Space (CBS Network, 1965-1968), and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (ABC Network, 1964-1968) were also discussed.
While posting diminished in 2014, it continued to have regular posts until the Groups site was revamped. Many members were also part of the Uncle Odie's Collectibles group run by Robert Vanderpool and Kirk Roderick, a group focused on Irwin Allen show merchandise and fan items.
When Yahoo Groups ceased operating in 2019, two separate new forum groups were created. Founder member Jeffrey Talbot started The Time Tunnel Fan Forum on Google Groups. Fellow member Todd Emslie started The Time Tunnel Fan Forum on groups.io. Both groups continue to this day, and share similar membership.
Original 2004 The Time Tunnel Fan Forum Yahoo Groups founding member, Jeffrey Talbot, passed away in late October, 2023.
