The very first episode of The Twilight Zone, written to be an easy and palatable introduction to what was to come later.
When the original choices for the debut episode were scrapped for being too down or out there to start the series in the eyes of sponsor/studio, this was the compromise used.

 Twilight Zone - Reviews on RateItAll
Its best episodes are absolutely haunting, their enormous potency undiminished, and can still bring a tear to the eye of a hardened old reprobate (just kidding) like myself (the episode where Gig Young goes back in time to his boyhood home still brings a lump to my throat, as just one example).
Not every episode was great, but I rate it a 5 because the best episodes were SO great, there were a lot of good ones, and you don't have to watch the weak ones if you don't want to.
Most older programs seem so cheap and silly now, but the Twilight Zone continues to amaze me with how complex some of the stories were.

This is a rare episode for me that I can watch and just laugh at how over-the-top it is but still get sucked into the suspense.
In my humble opinion, the 1980's Twilight Zone series was the best, purest science fiction on television since the original 60's Outer Limits.
The criticism that the latest version of the Twilight Zone has got I don't believe is warranted.

The episode A Short Drink From A Certain Fountain is the "Spock's Brain" on the series, meaning it's the worst.
Although mostly taken from the book "The Twilight Zone Companion," I found this feature to be the most interesting.
The only "disappointments" that I found were the collection's lack of a subtitles option (which I really would have appreciated), and the fact that the episodes are not in order (which slightly detracts from observing the actual progression of growth within the series).
