The Twilight Zone: Original TV Series Reviews

“…With Serling’s ever-present activism at its core and a love for all things out of this universe running its engines, Zone was more than just an Amazing Stories geek-a-thon. Instead, it was an example of how high minded motives mixed with artistic quality could coalesce into something that was both engaging and enlightening. So much has been written about Serling’s slap in the face to broadcast mediocrity that it seems pointless to preach even further. It remains a terrific series, steeped in enough mainstream appeal to help the casual viewer past some of the wackier concepts. Fighting for every word in every script. it’s creator saw the show as a chance to take the medium in a direction steeped in intelligence and invention. While budget and time constraints often thwarted the approach, Serling and his staff always managed to get their point across in vivid, vaulted strokes…” PopMatters.com

“The Twilight Zone” debuted on national television in 1959 and then ran five seasons until 1964. Nearly each episode brought something to the table that was unlike anything ever seen before. A great deal of that credit goes to some of the most outstanding fantasy/science fiction/horror writing the tube had ever seen from legends such as Richard Matheson, Charles Beaumont, and George Clayton Johnson. Yet, all of this visionary goodness can be tied up and attributed to one man – it was Rod Serling who gave this fantastic talent their playground in which to shine, and we've never been the same since…An amazing emotional roller coaster that rarely loosens its grip on your attention." Dread Central (season 1)

“The prestige of The Twilight Zone was such that it attracted a slew of highly respected writers to pen the scripts Serling could not; they included the likes of Richard Mattheson, Charles Beaumont, George Clayton Johnson, Jerry Sohl, Earl Hamner, Jr., Reginald Rose, Harlan Ellison and Serling’s boyhood hero, Ray Bradbury. Even today, the quality of Serling and company’s episodes attest to the high-water mark set by the series: “Time Enough at Last,” “A Stop at Willoughby,” “The Howling Man,” “The Eye of the Beholder,” “The Invaders,” “The Obsolete Man,” “A Game of Pool,” “To Serve Man,” “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet” and so many more…Rod Serling’s unas­suming little series allowed many individuals to cash in on its fame — but it also taught me that there is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity; it is the middle ground between light and shadow between science and superstition and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. And for that, I am truly grateful.” eddieonfilm

“As far as the show goes, The Twilight Zone is one of the greatest pieces of television ever made, superbly written, directed, photographed and with fine performances by actors including Martin Landau, Vera Miles, Jack Klugman, Martin Balsam and Ed Wynn. It really is a product of its time and you can tell the Senate hearings into Communism (which led to people being blacklisted, driven out of their homes and even to commit suicide) had a huge influence on the show, as did the constant threat of nuclear war and the prospect of putting a man into space…It really is superb stuff and comes highly recommended.” Film365.co.uk (season 1)
