The first episode is the "Where Is Everybody?" one that Laryssa always mentions when I mention The Twilight Zone.
And then there's "One For The Angels" with Mr. Death who's more Misha Collins than Julian Richings, but does the whole If The Person Who's Supposed To Die Doesn't, Then Someone Else Has To thing.
Four episodes in, and there's actually one I haven't seen! "The Sixteen Millimeter Shrine": Aging movie actress crawls into her old films to escape the reality of growing old (as opposed to the one with the aging movie actress who sucks the life out of young men in order to escape the reality of growing old).
So far out of seven episodes on the first disc of season 1, there were two that I hadn't seen before (the second one was a Be Careful What You Wish For/Who Wants To Live Forever type dealie). This is exciting. Also in the asteroid prison one, people pronouncing "robot" as "robut" is amusing in an I'm 12 sort of way.
"Time Enough At Last": The episode that makes me absurdly grateful to be near-sighted such that if my glasses break at the end of the world, I will still be able to read. (I won't be able to see the Zombies coming at a distance, but I'll be able to read, dammit)
And then another episode I had never seen before followed by a few that at first I thought I hadn't seen, but then remembered (including a philosophical precursor to my fave, "Death's-Head Revisted"). I guess I only saw them once before instead of the usual 12 times.
Music by Jerry Goldsmith!
8 episodes on season 1, disc 2 with two more never before seen. Wheeee!
Another new (to me) one: Some guy named Gibbs vs. Gambling Is Bad, Mmmkay?
"And somewhere in between the heaven, the sky, the earth... lies the Twilight Zone."
Let me sum up: 20 episodes of Rod Serlingy goodness with 6 of those never before seen by me. And as an added bonus, I didn't get interrupted by wrestling (for shame, SyFy, for shame!).
*Okay, 99.9% less because they've got ads for other CBS shows on at the time like Wanted Dead or Alive starring Steve McQueen and The Danny Thomas Show.
