I've seen a fair number of episodes, maybe half of the original series. The best are on a level with the better "Twilight Zone" episodes. 8/10

I don't like or understand polls that require me to vote in order to see the results.
If I have never seen the show, I might want to see what other people think of it. Why won't you let me see that?
If I have never seen the show but vote just to see the results, my vote is a lie and I am messing up any results you want. Why would you want to contaminate your poll in that way?

Like MOST two season series (Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, for example) the FIRST season IS the BETTER one. Although there are some good second season episodes, as well. I HATE calling films or shows SCARY (NOTHING is scary to me on film or tv), just possibly DISTURBING. No I wouldn't say it's disturbing, BUT it's still fun to watch.

10/10. I'm not a big sci-fi fan and this type of show would not normally be my cup of tea, so the fact that I still find it compelling viewing only confirms its greatness. This is one of those unfortunate TV series that was unfairly cancelled ahead of its time, even though the ratings were initially high, because the network (in this case CBS) didn't want to support it (probably because it had a high production budget), so they moved it around the schedule until its ratings sank, then cancelled it.
I'm not easily scared by horror movies, supernatural stories, etc., but I remember always being frightened by the opening credits of this show. That little white dot was terrifying! Even now I find it chilling. I was also freaked out as a kid whenever some technical problem occurred at a TV station that required them to announce to viewers "Please Stand By" while the problem was fixed. Only quite recently did I discover that Please Stand By was the original name of this show; this would have made the show even more terrifying for me as a kid.

6/10 – very hit or miss, mostly the latter. But episodes such as The Demon with the Glass Hand were outstanding.

8/10. Had some clunkers, but its best episodes (and there were quite a few of them) were both terrifying and thought-provoking. And I much prefer the original to the largely crummy mid Nineties redo.
