This show is based on Rod Serling's classic TV anthology show, The Twilight Zone. Redoing some episodes and doing new ones 20 years laters after the originals, these are made in color and in one-hour episodes. Most of the episodes contained two or three stories, and were broken up in half hour episodes for syndication. CBS cancelled the show in its second season, but it was picked up by a Canadian producer and aired in syndication in a half-hour format. The show contains mostly ironic or special situations with a twist at the end, which show the human nature, coupled with science fiction, horror or fantasy. Some of the show's writers are well known: Harlan Ellison, Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, Richard Matheson, Sidney Sheldon and J. Michael Straczynski. The opening and closing music was done by The Grateful Dead.
Not the best quality transfer to DVD I've ever seen, in fact it wouldn't surprise me if this is a straight transfer from VHS to DVD with very little done to it. Couldn't find this anywhere, so made my own copies. Maybe one day the 1980's seasons will be cleaned up and released on Blu-ray like they did with the 1960's seasons, but until then, this is all there is...
