There is a Fifth Dimension

Last week(ish), I finished watching the entire first season of one of my favorite TV shows "The Twilight Zone".

 

So, for as long as I can remember I've always enjoyed Sci-fi's "Twilight Zone" marathons, but despite always considering it a favorite show of mine I've never actually had any exposure to the show outside of the marathons. Well, recently I decided to change that and so I borrowed the first season from my local library and went to watching.

 

I'm not going to ramble on here about my favorite episodes or any observations I've had while watching, but I will say that very quickly the episodes became very predictable with only the finale's twist ending making me grab my head while shouting, "OH MY GAWD."

I don't know if this is because I have a lot of experience with the show or if the episodes really are just that predictable or what, but either way it didn't really matter because the writing and Rod Serling's insights into human nature still kept me interested, but its just something that stuck out to me.

 

 

Favorite Episode(s); "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street", "Judgment Night", and "One For the Angels".

 

Alright, now on to season 2.

I've seen twilight zone a couple of times and I did really enjoy it, but I've never really gotten into it (or any other TV show for that matter).

 

About the fifth dimension, I read an article about how time could be considered another dimension, since it's another linear progression.

What's funny is, Rod Serling did originally write, "There is a sixth dimension," but when a producer asked why he skipped the fifth dimension Serling replied that he thought they were already five dimensions.
