Marta and I both worked on the 80's version DVDs. We are in the credits. And a few good friends worked on the original series extras.

grew up on them, love most of them. My favorite, "A Stop at Willoughby", it just reminds me of my dad for some reason.

Willoughby and Time Enough At Last (I think that was the name.) Those two just kill me.

I also love the one with Billy Mummy as Anthony but mainly because my husband and I say a couple of lines from that one to each other all the time.

That collection represents an extraordinary body of work. Mr. Serling also wrote the screenplay for "Seven Days in May" and "Carol for Another Christmas" and other works. He understood the power of ideas.

...he adapted a number of classic stories of the field, including "It's a *Good* Life", "What You Need", "The Veldt", and several others. He also, unfortunately, had a lot of second-rate episodes with tomato-surprise endings that any SF editor sees every day in the slush pile--even, God help us, the "Adam-and-Eve-were-astronauts" ending. So: a mixed bag. But any TV show deserves to be judged on its best shows, and by that standard, *The Twilight Zone* was very good indeed...
