Yes, I watch it sort of semi-regularly, skip episodes I've seen and don't like, watch those I do like. It was a wonderful series and it holds up nicely. The production values are first rate, the acting generally good to excellent; same with the writing.
It's a show that literally worth pondering, as it nearly always provides food for thought.

I wish there was a Twilight Zone board here like there was at the old IMDB. I'd like to discuss the show further but I don't know if posting in a classic TV thread is the way to go. Moviechat, org has some of the posts from the old TZ message board, and I've posted there, not much action, not yet anyway. |

This being a brand new message board I believe they will get to it ASAP ( and am very impressed how fast they set this message board up too ! ) . Along with hopefully many other boards for classic shows & movies us folks would like to see here too . There is a Suggestion Box section on this board to request what we may want of this message board also  . Thanks again telegonus for your reply . |

I don't like the edits. I want the dvd collection. There's tons of great episodes, but some of them it just builds to the ending and when you know the ending it kind of takes away from the viewing experience. It depends on the awesomeness of the ending though. "It's a good life" is one of the most evil episodes and that one is always great to view.

Greatest tv show of all time. Rod Serling poured many great stories that would retold and remade and expanded upon for decades. Rod said the greatest resource of any writer is : ideas. And he sure had a lot of them. The show would influence writers and producers for generations.
Chris Carter and Vince Gilligan (x-files) were of course, huge fans growing up with the show. Gilligan responded to critics:
"The funny thing about 'Monday' is people seemed to really like it a lot, but people always sorta smiled and said you're sort of ripping off Groundhog Day aren't you? And I'd say, we're not ripping off Groundhog Day, we're ripping off The Twilight Zone."
