I actually watched two this morning that I had never seen before. I will watch as many as possible. So many incredible actors on this show. Niech Zyje P-220 Steve | ||

What a great show! I'm 70 and watched most of them when they were first broadcast. Rod Serling (who died way too young) spoke at my college (SUNY Cortland NY) in the early 1970s. He had a summer home at one of the Finger Lakes. | |||

It was a great show. Rod Serling had a summer home on Cayuga Lake. His production company was Cayuga Productions. One of the episodes "Mirror Image" which I watched mentions the bus to Cortland, the town that I grew up in. My parents used to live in California outside Los Angeles. My mother had a vanity plate on her car that said CAYUGA (from my fathers printing company Cayuga Graphics.) Surpisingly, my mother was asked twice if she was Rod Serling's widow because people noticed her vanity plate. | |||

Watched a few of those last night. The one that got me was the “trial” of Burgesss Meredith, the librarian, and his being declared “obsolete” because there were no more books. This seemed so much like today’s real life that I started wondering if our world is now the Twilight Zone. _________________________ “Remember, remember the fifth of November!" | |||

It's amazing how well this series holds up! Frequently dark morality plays that strike a deep chord and are as relevant today as they were when they first aired SIXTY (60) years ago! (No "Outdated Cultural Depiction" here!!) I know of no other series like that. It also still draws new viewers; I ran across a fellow in his late 20's or early 30's about a year ago; he had a tattoo of Rod Serling smoking a cigarette with the opening credit spinning design behind him on his left upper arm! And yes, it's amazing the number of famous actors/actresses that did episodes. | |||
