The middle ground between light and shadow just became a whole lot sharper and detailed with this stellar five-disc set, which compiles the entire second season of Rod Serling's classic television series, The Twilight Zone, and gilds the whole package by including a treasure trove of supplemental material. TZ's second season (1960-61) is a stand-out in the series' history thanks to its sheer number of memorable stories; among the episodes that have achieved pop culture landmark status are the chilling "Eye of the Beholder" (a disfigured woman undergoes surgery to appear more "normal") and "The Silence" (Franchot Tone wagers that Liam Sullivan cannot silent for a year); "The Invaders" (Agnes Moorhead is pitted against tiny space travelers), "Long Distance Call" (Lost in Space's Billy Mumy converses with a deceased relative on his toy phone), and the more light-hearted "Night of the Meek," in which department store Santa Claus Art Carney gets a chance to fulfill the real St. Nick's duties. As always, the combination of sharp, intelligent scripting (mostly by Serling, but with notable contributions by Charles Beaumont, Richard Matheson, and George Clayton Johnson) and superb casting (guest stars include Cliff Robertson, Dennis Weaver, Burgess Meredith, William Shatner, John Carradine, and Don Rickles) produces television that remains as thought-provoking and entertaining today as it was over 40 years ago.

Though The Twilight Zone has received numerous home video releases over the years, the aptly titled Definitive Edition is arguably the finest presentation of this series to date. Each of the episodes have been digitally remastered from original camera negatives (even the episodes filmed on videotape look good) and magnetic soundtracks; Serling's previews for upcoming episodes and advertising "billboards" (sponsor spots) have also been included, as have commentaries by Rickles, Weaver, Robertson, Shelly Berman, and other performers. Clips of Serling on The Jack Benny Show and in conversation with Mike Wallace, audio interviews with cast and crew members by Twilight Zone Companion author Marc Scott Zicree, radio adaptations of classic episodes, and even the script for "Twenty-Two," complete with Serling's notes, round out the set, which belongs in the collection of anyone who's ever been enthralled by this landmark series. Now, if only the same treatment could be afforded to Serling's other anthology program, Night Gallery--Paul Gaita



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Work
Balck&white fragments constituting a Rod Serling's show are surprisingly enticing even a modern viewer to date acknowledged with, for instance, Tales Of The Unexplained among a string of other later works mixing sci-fi with supernatural.

Segments embedding the mysteries of reality are the best among sequences created an epoch ago.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Some of the best episodes here
This season really was up and down because of the longer format, now one hour. But when it worked it worked. When it failed, it went down fighting nonetheless.

But I am a fan. That's why I own the whole series.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Rod Serling's Classic "Zone"
This classic is a bit dated, but still fascinating. I love the DVDs and love the speedy, excellent service from the seller.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - As good as TV gets.
Very few shows have left a legacy behind them as the Twilight Zone. It was the second series, in my opinion, when the show really came into its own. Many classic episodes are included here- and watching them again was like visiting with old friends...And if anything they seem even better with the passing of years.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Zoning out
The hour long episodes of season four have a few gems amongst them but as any fan knows TZ had peaked in season three. Serling's involvement was gradually being reduced, not in the writing capacity but he wanted to pursue other ventures and it shows.
