YouTube has a number of episodes from this great show, and the picture quality suggests that they're from the restored DVDs sold by Shout Factory.

From IMDB: Quirky strangers appear at the research institute. They have curious ideas, and unexplained knowledge. Local researchers aren't sure if they are legitimate or if they are dangerous nuts. What will happen if they are allowed into the lab?

This is a humorous, lighthearted episode which stars Edmund Gwenn from Miracle on 34t Street and Them!, along with William Schallert (from numerous 50s sci-fi movies).

It's very reminiscent of the more whimsical Twilight Zone episodes like Mr. Dingle, the Strong.

Unfortunately, there's not as much humor in the episode as it needed to justify the fact that it really doesn't try to present much of anything else. Sad
