Rod Serling's morality plays disguised as science fiction.

Apparently Serling often battled with networks on his supposed somewhat anti-establishment messages, so Twilight Zone gave him a vehicle to sneak a little jab here and there.

So it appears Ms. Serling knew her father well.

The Twilight Zone was over my head. I was too young to understand Armageddon.

The Outer Limits scared the hell out of me. Check the closets and look under the bed stuff.

The TZ marathons are great. Unfortunately I can now do dialog. I see the title and know what it is. When I was young I thought I would never see this again.

Yay syndication!

I was afraid she was going to say that he had sexually assaulted her or someone else. I was going to feel like "NOOOOO! Not Rod Serling!!!!!" Phew. So glad that wasn't it.
