Trivia
The truck that almost hits Claudia belongs to Dingle Moving. Dingle Moving has been mentioned in several season 2 episodes, and is a nod to the original series' episode Mr. Dingle, the Strong (1961).

Quotes
The Narrator: [opening narration] You might say that Claudia King has found herself on a kind of blind date. One set up not by friend, family, or co-worker. This is a match neither made in Heaven nor the Internet, but in the far darker web of the Twilight Zone.
The Narrator: [closing narration] Claudia King will, like most of us, proceed directly to a lifetime of tomorrow leaving Marc Wheeler to spend an eternity in a prison of his own design. The inability, no matter how many times he's given, to see beyond himself. An endless loop of solitary confinement here in the Twilight Zone.

Has Potential, Bad Ending

Has a intriguing beginning, a fascinating middle when the twist comes in, but the ending is not satisfying. Without getting into spoilers, if you didn't like the episode "Not All Men" from Season 1, you won't like this episode. Although it's better written than "Not All Men" but it shares a similar ideology. I will say Topher Grace pulls off some impressive acting in this episode.

I wish this show could move forward with their interesting ideas without forcing illogical ideology. Whereas Rod Serling's original show felt like it was made by a mature adult with life experience, this reboot feels like it was made by a teenager who thinks they know it all.
