The Twilight Zone (1959 TV series)

The Twilight Zone is a television series created by Rod Serling. The original series ran for five seasons on CBS from 1959 to 1964 and remains syndicated to this day. As an anthology series, each episode presented its own separate story, often involving people who face unusual or extraordinary circumstances, therefore entering the "Twilight Zone." Rod Serling served as a head writer, executive producer and host of the program, delivering on-or-off-screen monologues at the beginning and end of each episode. Orson Welles was originally considered, but the producers felt he asked for too much money.
