This really is one of the best series of all time. I've never really seen the show before, aside from a couple episodes when I was younger. But, wow.

Some excellent use of mystery, fiction, and psychological storytelling.

Yeah, the Twilight Zone is a bad ass show. Didn't they try to remake it on UPN?

I remember one of the new ones. When a statue makes sigourney weaver turn into a monster and crish some kids Jambox with her hands.

The best one is the one with "Sand Kings" there like little Tremosr like monsters from MARS that model a city after a building they see on a food can.

Sandkings was the new Outer Limits in which they had to go to Canada and add nudity to get anybody to watch it.

Twilight Zone was good when I first saw it but now I don't have the stomach for it. It's just too damn preachy. It seems like it was Serling's own little soapbox to not listen to any other views but his own. Plus it all rings false when you realize a man of such moral fiber sold his half of TZ back to CBS just so he could host Night Gallery and die penniless.

The firs one I watched had some guy in a space ship hit something and he got transported back in time. And right after that had a monster guy who could change into people....i think its the same episode...I'm a little shaky
