by Blake Chapman There has not been a program so evocative, captivating, and down right memorable as Rod Serling’s The Twilight Zone. Since premiering 60 years ago, it has carved a legacy into television history with its massive influence on the genre of science fiction. Throughout the years following its debut on CBS, there have been novels, a TV film, a radio series, two theme park attractions, and two failed revivals. All of which bring into question if we would ever enter the dimension of light and sound once more. CBS has not given up on the property just yet. With the popularity of other anthology series like Black Mirror and taking chances on additional exclusive content for All Access like Star Trek: Discovery, the television titan has taken another shot at reviving this drama of fantasy and horror. Instead of Serling at the helm, we have Jordan Peele, executive producer and narrator, walking us through two harrowing episodes that act as a fantastic launchpad for this series, but regrettably include noticeable gaps in storytelling prowess.
