Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone is an iconic series ahead of its time and features various stories in various genres, including science fiction, fantasy, and horror. The show originally aired in 1959, but even decades later, it remains a cherished classic noted for its timeless tales and impressive line-up of established and future stars such as Robert Redford, William Shatner, and Oscar-winner Lee Marvin.
Season 2, episode eleven, "The Night of the Meek," is an endearing reminder to viewers about remembering the true meaning of the holiday season. There's nothing wrong with enjoying gifts and bountiful feasts with family and friends, but the episode sheds light on how the stress and pressures of the time of year can sometimes cause people to lose sight of the genuine spirit of the holidays.
Season 3, episode eighteen, "Dead Man's Shoes," is a telling tale about how one's past can come back to haunt them. It might not come back in a pair of spats, but somehow, their sins will catch up to them one way or another. Stevens does an excellent job switching from two completely opposite personas, the meek, shy Bledsoe to the aggressively confident Dane, with a more convincing performance in the dual role.
Season 3, episode 4, "The Passersby," is one of the most moving episodes from The Twilight Zone and, in classic Serling style, features an ending with a rather somber but sweet twist. The episode sheds light on the devastating aftermath the South faced at the end of the war and the ruins they were left to try to pick up.
