Before Sabrina could twitch her finger and Zack Morris could call a timeout, Out of This World let Evie Garland stop time with just a touch of her
fingers. This gloriously weird 1980s sitcom starred Maureen Flannigan as a half-alien teen, Donna Pescow as her mom (fresh off Saturday Night Fever),
and a glowing plastic cube that talked with the voice of... Burt Reynolds.
Think Small Wonder was odd? Wait till you revisit the show that made Gen X believe they could freeze time.

Did you try the finger-touch time freeze after school? Be honest.
Which Evie moment lives rent-free in your brain? The cube? The double Evies? That wild finale with Donna accidentally beaming herself to another planet??

[I remember this show but remember it being on TBS, who was experimenting
with original programming at the the time, and remember the reveal that Burt Reynolds was voicing her father was a big deal at the time.]
