I watched this 15-minute, TV show as a child on a home-made TV in Augusta, Georgia.
I remember watching this show with fond memories since I was very interested in science. The fact that it was in black and white probably made it even more impressionable.
I would love to see some of the old episodes.
My other favorite show, a couple of years later, was "Science Fiction Theater," hosted by Truman Bradley and usually/often starring Richard Carlson.
Then, of course, there was the "Mister Wizard" show.
And this is the stuff that helped fashion my young mind!

We watched Atom Squad faithfully, and it always promised a lot, and sometimes even delivered. But usually it was saddled by all the production limitations of a live, daily 15-minute childrens' program from the Golden Age of TV--- little action, only two or three cramped sets, limited camera coverage, blown lines, and lots of talking heads. The concept was good--- special agents looking for menaces to society that involved radiation (and usually Commie sabotage or generic Mad Scientists). I'd love to see some episodes again, despite it all, and hope against hope some kinescopes survive somewhere.

As a budding Scientist (actually became a chemist) I watched this show faithfully. The plots were banal but it was what went wrong that caught your eye.
I remember one episode when this "mad scientist' was about to launch a bad weather rocket against New York City (where else),and as the prop rocket filled with magnesium sparklers lifted - most likely by rope pulley,the rope broke and this thing fell back down the chute to the studio floor. And here was this poor actor trying to give his best 'mad-man' dialog and suppressing a smile as this prop fizzled on the studio floor.
