Product Description

Amazon.ca

Dedicated visitors to the fifth dimension will find an impressive array of extras in the season 1 set, drawing from both the Definitive Edition DVDs as well as a wealth of new material unearthed or created especially for this presentation. For many, the inclusion of "The Time Element," a 1958 episode of The Westinghouse Desilu Playhouse penned by Rod Serling, will be among the key selling points; never legally available in any format prior to this set, the hour-long story, which stars William Bendix as a man who suffers from a recurring nightmare of being at Pearl Harbor before the attack, has been widely regarded as the unofficial pilot for TZ, and it fits perfectly with the tone and quality of the established episodes. For others, the 19 new commentary tracks created for the Blu-ray set will be the draw; anchored by Twilight Zone Companion author Marc Scott Zicree, and featuring talents ranging from director Ted Post to historian Gary Gerani, the new tracks are informative and flesh out the six provided on the Definitive DVDs. There's also an early version of "What You Need" from the '50s anthology series Tales of Tomorrow; a 1978 interview with cinematographer George T. Clemens, who was responsible for the series' signature look; and 13 isolated music scores featuring the work of Bernard Herrmann and Jerry Goldsmith, among others. All of these features, plus 12 additional Twilight Zone radio adaptations, join the exceptional material from the DVDs, including an unaired version of the pilot episode, "Where Is Everybody?," with Serling's sales pitch to networks; commentary by actor Martin Landau, among others; interviews with producer Douglas Heyes and actor Burgess Meredith; recordings of Serling's lectures; original sponsor billboards; and footage of the show's Emmy wins. --Paul Gaita

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Show, Great Packaging --- More Expensive Than Most (But Price has Dropped Significantly), Mar 16 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought all 5 seasons, one at a time and in order, from amazon.ca, which did offer them much cheaper than in stores. The price is lower now than what I paid!!!

The shows are great, the remastered picture and sound is good, and there's many special features. Season 1 even came with a book about the entire seasons, including reviews of every episode --- I enjoyed that.

The best seasons are 1, 2 and 3. Seasons 4 & 5 each have some great episodes, but fewer than the first 3 seasons. Season 4 had one-hour episodes (while the other seasons had half hour episodes) and it's the weakest season by far.

If you loved this show but aren't sure about spending the money, get the first 3 seasons only. If you want it all, get the definitive collection with all 5 seasons together and save a lot of money.

5.0 out of 5 stars All new Twilight Zone, Jan 24 2012

This review is from: The Twilight Zone: Season 1 [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
If you thought the dvd versions just kept getting better, you will be blown away by the bluray version. Audio and video quality is a step up from the already good Definitive dvd versions and the extras are even better - some episodes like "Walking Distance" now have 2 commentaries where there was nothing on the dvd version. This is Twilight Zone at its best. Any problems with it come from the fact that it is a 50 year old show but you won't see a lot of them. A great show presented it the best format possible right now.

3.0 out of 5 stars not what i remember., Oct 20 2011
hmmm....it's hard to say. i mean it's good for what it is, but it's not how you remember it. but then you were a kid when you watched it last so you probably remember it differently and from a different point of view.
