Summary: TZ 40th Anniversary Box Set SHOULD have had only the best.
Review: The 40th anniversary set is just a collection of episodes when it COULD and SHOULD have had the best picks of the series.Rod Serling always said that his Twilight Zone series was-"one third good,one third average and one third bad",well "Mr Dingle the Strong" is a bad episode,"the Invaders" is a bad episode(with a laughable robot).Only the best should have been picked and,looking at the set,it is obviously just a collection of cds.A very poor effort.

Rating: 3 stars

Summary: Don't pay Ninty-nine bucks for this!
Review: This set has no special intrinsic value; it is the first half of the TZ Volume 1 DVD Collection, which only goes for seventy bucks at most retail outlets; I say again, don't pay almost one-hundred bucks for 50% of what you can have at under seventy! Additionally, there is noting special about this set; the DVDs aren't even packaged per standard--they're in CD jewl cases, loosly packed in box...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: In the Zone
Review: Twilight Zone is one of the most creative pieces of Americana. What Serling succeeded in doing was to combine a first rate scifi imagination with a concern for the human condition and the basic questions of existence. He questions, he doubts, he moralizes, but without overt preaching. Instead, he gives us his imaginative tales that combine suspense and innovative plots, meaningful characters and strange circumstances. All this entertains and teaches a lesson at the same time. And you are likely to learn something new from Serling's biography, which is also included in the 40th Anniversary Gift Set. Owning The Twilight Zone is like owning a piece of America.
