TV Show Feature: The Twilight Zone

Sunday, February 24, 2008 | Labels: | 1 comments |

The Twilight Zone tv showThe Twilight Zone is a television anthology series created and often written by its narrator and host Rod Serling. Each episode (156 in the original series) is a self-contained fantasy, science fiction, or horror story, often concluding with an eerie or unexpected twist.

Through its course from 1959 to 1964, the tv show had focused on ordinary folks who suddenly found themselves in extraordinary and supernatural situations. The stories would typically end with an ironic twist that would see the guilty punished.

A popular and critical success, The Twilight Zone introduced many Americans to serious science fiction and abstract ideas through television and also through a wide variety of literature.

The success of this original series led to the creation of two revival series (a cult hit series that ran for several seasons in the 1980s, and a short-lived series that ran early in the new millennium), a feature film, a radio series, a comic book, a magazine, and various other spin-offs that would span five decades.
