    • Trivia
      The abandoned town in which the Frazers find themselves is the same location used for The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street (1960). As the actors move through the 'town', they traverse several of the old themed 'street' sets which were then standing on the old MGM backlot, including the New England street, the "St Louis" street, and the western town.

    • Quotes

      [opening narration]

      Narrator: Bob and Millie Frazier, average young New Yorkers who attended a party in the country last night, and on the way home, took a detour. Most of us on waking in the morning know exactly where we are. The rooster or the alarm clock brings us out of sleep into the familiar sights, sounds, aromas of home and the comfort of a routine day ahead. Not so with our young friends. This will be a day like none they've ever spent, and they'll spend it - in The Twilight Zone.

    A real Twilight Zone episode
    After watching quite a few episodes of the TZ, I have discovered that there are more than a few "bad" once. Not all episodes are sharp, not all twists are surprising or mind bending, not all characters are interesting. But in this quiet town, the horror is real, and we can sense the panic that our heroes are going through. We probably would have acted the same way. Sure, this idea has been used several times throughout the series, but as long as its done right, it works every time! It is that kind of TZ episodes, that have made this show so great. From the beginning, we are inside the character's heads. They are lost, and we are lost with them. We care for them, and we are intrigued to know what is going on. The ending is twisted enough to bring a smile to our face, along with a sense of horror. This is Twilight Zone at its best.
