    For me, Rod Serling is the finest writer for television ever, and it's not close! He had a unique vision of, and for humanity. He put our weaknesses on full display, while never forgetting to show the goodness that man is truly capable of when challenged. His singular brilliance of being able to manage that fragile juxtaposition keeps his memory alive today and forever.

    It sucks Rod never got to see the fruits of his labor blossom like it has in the last couple of decades. The twilight zone was more than just a tv show for people. His stories and lessons speak more today than it ever has and im sure he wouldve never guessed we would be analyzing his creation on a tiny glass screen. They will still be talked about even 100 years later. Rod was always trying to find his magnum opus but little did he know, he had already had it.
    Rest easy Rod. Your genius will never be forgotten, even in the darkest pits of the twilight zone.

    I didn't think that it would affect me this much but I'm off my meds so it has. The Twilight-Tober Zone has been a wonderful series, Walter. Thank you so much for doing this.
    You made the Twilight Zone come alive and brought back a hundred memories. For four years, this has been something that I looked forward to all year.
    I love your insights, trivia, appreciation for Rod, the cast, and crew, even the running gags. I don't always feel good and right now, I feel awful but this series is a testament to not only the series itself but their fan's dedication to it. It's been a wonderful journey and I am glad to share it with you.

    The tragedy of Rod Serling was he could've given the world about 25 to 30 more years of great writing if he had ever not smoked or stopped smoking.
    I have to go back and count all the scenes in this video where he is holding a lit cigarette. His smoking caused his need for a coronary bypass which led to his passing.
    I was a Twilight Zone fan from the first episode on. We used to have Twilight Zone TV get togethers in high school when the show aired on Friday nights. He wrote brilliantly consistently. There were some unforgettable episodes.

    Thank you for these past few years, Walter. I had already heard of Twilight Zone back in high school, but I feel like you were the one who properly introduced me to the show. Twilight-Tober Zone was not only my spooky season "comfort show" but it's helped me appreciate filmmaking and writing, as well as the people behind it, a lot more. I'll likely rewatch my favorites next time I venture into the analytical depths...of the Twilight-Tober Zone.

    Walter, thank you for the past four years of Twilight Zone in depth reviews. I’m 39 and have been watching this show ever since I was a little kid through annual Sci fi channel marathons. Understandably, some of the episodes frightened me as a child but as I’ve gotten older I’ve developed a huge love and respect for the stories and everything that went into making them come to fruition. I thought I’d seen just about every episode but it turns out there were quite a few I didn’t know existed. Thank you again for all of the hard work and dedication! I can’t wait to see what you have in store next!

    LOL. I wasn’t really into Night Gallery, but I’d tune in to watch a rerun now and then. Almost every time I’d watch an episode, Gay Collins played a psychic who would inadvertently end up in a situation where he would half to help someone who was dealing with paranormal issues. I was confused as to why there seemed to be so many episodes of NG to feature the same plot and character. It wasn’t until a few years ago, that I learned he starred in a mostly forgotten sci/fi series in 1972 entitled, The Sixth Sense (no relation to the 1999 film). When NG was repackaged into syndication, The Sixth Sense was included. Probably one of the main reasons that I wasn’t into NG as much a TZ.

    The Twilight Zone is a show that has left its traces to this day, that is more than half a century ago now that the show aired. It really shows what kind of impact it had on popular culture.

    According to a 1974 interview
    with Marvel Comics, Rod Serling
    wrote his 3rd draft for a planned
    feature-length adaptation of
    "It's A Good Life", with Alan Landsburg
    (who later became the executive
    producer for *"Kennedy: The Miniseries"* and *"JAWS 3-D"* in 1983) as the producer.
    It was sadly his last interview before his passing in 1975.

      Makes you wonder if Bill Mumy who played "Anthony" in the *"Twilight Zone"* episode would
      have appeared in a Hitchcockian cameo for that version, just like
      he did in the remake segment of *"TWILIGHT ZONE: The Movie".*
