The switch to an hour-long program made these episodes cumbersome and boring. It was slow-moving and seemed to suffer the same problem as hour-long episodes of 'The Other Limit', 25 minutes of substance stretched over 50 minutes. Least favorite season of Twilight Zone.

This TV series apparentally is not being sold season by season anymore, but I can highly recommend the entire set (all 5 seasons) which are a product of Image Entertainment. As described in the promotional literature, newly struck prints from the original camera negatives are used for the transfer to DVD, providing a superb image, and especially good when played on an upconverting player. The extras throughout the 5 seasons are great, my favorite being the appearance of Rod Serling on the Jack Benny Program.(This is not in the 5th season, however.)
Get yourself a copy of the "Twilight Zone Companion" book, and decide which episodes you like best. Then get the seasons containing them if you can find them, or the entire series if you have to. (Retail $250-$300)

I truly thought I was in for a let down when I purchased Season Five. ( I already owned Seasons 1-4). No way! If anything, Season Five actually shows every bit as much creativity as any of the previous Seasons. Rod Serling certainly did not loose his creative edge and passion for writing in the last year of this very remarkable TV show. A tremendous finale to a wonderful collection!

Even if you have the series on VHS or previous DVD releases, the picture and sound quality is SUPERB. The transfers are perfect. The extras make it worth the purchase. It even contains a disc with one classic TZ comic book from the 1960s and 1970s in PDF format so you can read a classic issue on your computer. There is an extra DVD in this set, a laughable documentary titled "Submitted for Your Approval" which is also available as a single on Amazon. Just noting it so you don't buy both and find yourself in possession with a duplicate.
One small note: I definately agree with other reviewers. THE TWILIGHT ZONE: UNLOCKING THE DOOR TO A TELEVISION CLASSIC by Martin Grams is 800 plus pages includes "everything" about the classic series and is a wonderful companion with the DVDs. The book details Serling's writing career on radio, early television and Twilight Zone is well researched and highly detailed. Exclusive interviews with cast and crew and behind-the-scenes trivia will floor you. What you do is watch an episode and then read up on it in the book and you'll discover a wealth of trivia that makes this worthy of appreciation. Both the DVD set and the book is on Amazon.com. Do yourself the favor and get both. You'll thank me for it.
