Very Disappointed

As an avid TZ enthusiast and viewer, I was extremely let down by it. The "it" to which I referred, is the title of this episode not to mention one or two "clues" within this one.

I presume we all know the "Third from the Sun" means Earth. I also presume most TZ fans know (or have a good idea) just how the writers think much of the time. Heck, it isn't called The Twilight Zone without reason!

By the first five or six minutes, the plot was very obvious. And when I saw the props used as telephones shown in a couple scenes, I knew these were not phones used on Earth then. (I wonder why the phones did not have the number 9 on them. Odd. I still cannot figure that out!

Poorly acted--fair at best combined with the predictability factor being as close to 100% as possible, I am very disappointed with this season- one episode as, ironically, season-one has the best episodes of all five seasons, in my opinion.
