If i love twilight zone , will i enjoy this?

Some episodes were weak, many were good some were outstanding in spite of some noticeable flaws. One strong part was the highly imaginative 'creatures' developed for the program. It is also pure science fiction instead of fantasy.

One that I believe was truly horrifying was O.B.I.T. because it addresses the same thing we are going through now with our loss of privacy and it ain't funny.

Demon With the Glass Hand was from a great story by Harlan Ellison that is truly memorable. Where did the human race go? I believe it was a two-parter.

Fun and Games - Nick Adams and a woman are put on an alien planet to compete in arena games against some pretty ugly primitive beings.

The Sixth Finger - A Welsh coal miner is launched by a scientist into an advanced mental state, far above the human level. His body also changes as he evolves. People are terrified by his power, some to death. David McCallum does a terrific acting job in spite of being weighed down by a large head.

The Man With the Power - A meek man is given immense power controlled by his mind. But his mind, like most people's, has really nasty thoughts.

ZZZZZZZ - A somewhat weak story where Joanna Frank plays one of the sexiest and most seductive roles seen on TV as the humanized queen of a hive of bees.

The Man Who Was Never Born - A mutant man from the earth's destroyed future comes back to kill a man in order to prevent the downfall of civilization. AMAZING performance by Martin Landau.

Soldier - Michael Ansara plays a warring soldier from the future who was raised by the State, for the State and finds himself in a modern city.

I, Robot - A mechanical man is blamed for the death of his creator, Leonard Nimoy as a reporter and an old lawyer try to defend him.

The Zanti Misfits - Not so good story about an alien invasion with a twist at the end. For 1963 the stop-action antagonists were at least creepy and possiblly terrifying depending on your feelings about crawly things.

I'd like to chip in by confirming what several other posters have said. Both series are good and at times, great. TOL is darker, always serious and tries to put over a message. In addition, it was always science fiction. TZ was often just cute or humorous and although a number of episodes were science fiction, most were not. In that sense and in not always being serious and message driven, it had more variety.

Also, I have to strongly disagree with the poster who said the episodes could have been done better in 30 minutes. While it is true that they could have been condensed in such a way, that doesn't mean it would have been a good idea. A lot of these stories needed time to breathe and stretch out. It is a very moody series and once a mood is set, it should marinate for a while and sink in. Resolving it quickly is a cheat and not satisfying to the viewer unless of course one has a limited attention span.

I'm a lifetime fan of TZ- and have always considered OL to be a cheap knockoff wannabe of TZ. TZ gave us in depth analyses of the most relevant issues of out rimes- prejudice, man's inhumanity to man- cruelty- war, the government, censorship, his topics were always deep and were basically morality plays.
OL tried to revive itself in the 70s- and was cute, and fun, but not especially edifying.
You would probably like Night Gallery!

i was wondering if fans of twilight zone enjoy this show?

TOL typically had a deeper moral message and than TZ,and the format was more SF. The Outer Limits was way ahead of its time and has never been replicated....so that says something about the writers.

Remember when President Reagan mused about how the world would come together if we all faced an enemy from another world? I thought he might have been inspired by the Outer Limits episode "The Architects Of Fear". Although he didn't seem to grasp the irony of the scenario presented by the episode...part of the closing narration was: "Scarecrows and magic and other fatal fears do not bring people closer together. There is no magic substitute for soft caring and hard work, for self-respect and mutual love"

It's kind of the "nerdy teen" companion to Twilight Zone, which is a true family show.
It's the next step up.....

I've been watching scifi for 40 years and I don't know where some of the negative commentors got their opinions. I agree with seashellz. This is some of the best scifi around. Stephen King thought so, too, or that comment wouldn't be on the cover of the DVD set. Watch them for yourself to form your own opinion. That's the best way. Some obviously like it, while some don't. For example, even though The Guests rated at IMDb as a 7.8, some still don't understand it. If you turn on your eyes and ears, you will experience one of the deeper episodes.
