Damn. First time I've ever found the Twilight Zone theme to be creepy. Jordan Peele is on fire.

That's some good shit.
Man CBS not pulling the punches with All Access. Holding Trek and TZ hostage on there got me good.

Looks like they got a lot of high profile people on this. I'm guessing this is one of those projects that just everybody wants to be on.

Can't watch right now but are they remaking old episodes at all? I need a To Serve Man remake

Is the tag line really "what dimension are you even in"?

That 'even' sounds so awkward to me.

Why isn't this on a non-dogshit network so that I don't have to worry about not enjoying it

That cast is way, way too good for CBS

Not really showing anything of substance besides the cast chock full of known actors. Can't unsee deadpan comedy Jordan Peele though.

Yup, I'm in. I paid for Showtime Anytime for Twin Peaks, I can do CBS's service for this.

Looks good, but why do they keep sticking high profile reboots on CBS Access? I still haven't seen Star Trek because I won't subscribe just to watch one show. This will probably push me over the edge, though.

So I guess I answered my own question lol

I never watched the original Twilight Zone, but this feels very campy and comedic in a way to me? Maybe it's because of how the trailer is edited. I thought it would be more horror and mystery. Anyway, still watching this for sure.

Looks dope as hell, even better than I imagined. I can't wait to hear people call this a Black Mirror clone.

Wait- are these original stories or remakes of old episodes? So many outright allusions and nods, or just reworked plots? Sweet christ I hope they're originals, I'd be supremely disappointed if they were just revisions.

This looks great I miss the weekly sci-fi anthology series: Amazing Stories, The Outer Limits Night Gallery and of course Twilight Zone. So many amazing writers got their start on this stuff.

The original could be campy/comedic at times as well. I can't speak to this version, but I wouldn't go into the original expecting it to be a "horror" series (though many episodes could certainly qualify as such).

I don't know what The Twilight Zone is, but I'm gonna have to check it out just because of the time-stuff and Steven Yeun.

Wow!

I did not expect this quality of a cast and production.

this could potentially be a reference to the episode "People Are Alike All Over", but its kind of a reach

Is OG Twilight Zone worth watching for someone that has never even seen a single episode but generally likes creepy stuff? Has it aged well basically.

I hate to be a cynic but I have a bad feeling about this. There was an off-putting creepiness and brilliance to the original stories that's going to be really hard to recapture.
