Television, like its big sister, the motion picture, has been guilty of the sin of omission… Hungry for talent, desperate for the so-called ‘new face,’ constantly searching for a transfusion of new blood, it has overlooked a source of wondrous … Continue reading The Twilight Zone, S1, E27: The Big Tall Wish
I’m going to try and start a trial run of some classic Twilight Zone reviews. They won’t be in sequential order, so I am starting with what is the most popular TZ episode of all time: Time Enough at Last. … Continue reading The Twilight Zone: S1, E8: Time Enough at Last
