Perhaps the WORST purchase I ever made
14 July 2006
Format:Paperback
This book is a complete waste of time. There is absolutely no information here that hasn't been said before. There is perhaps one or two sentences written about each episode and thats it! A total waste of time and money. You get 50 times more information in the Companion and at half the price. Additionally, there are a few pages of pictures that look like fifth generation zerox copies. STAY AWAY!!
Nice Book for Rod Serling Fans

I'm a huge fan of the Twilight Zone so I bought this book just for the heck of it. It gives a short run down of each episode. What I didn't know is that it also includes (I think) everything Rod Serling did. While it's nice to read...very interesting to see just what this extremely talented and gifted man actually did...I really wanted just the Twilight Zone info. The fact that 'The Twilight Zone' is in such large letters, it is a little bit misleading. But the title does include "The Rod Serling Programme Guide". So it is a good book for fans of his work. I'd love to find a book that has a little picture as well as a short description of each episode of just the Twilight Zone.
Waste of Time

I agree with Jeffrey Weiss. Avoid this book. I caught two errors within the first four minutes. There is so little information it is not funny. The ONLY plus is the interview with Richard Matheson and even then I suspect that isn't of value considering the new Matheson biography that is coming out.
The problem with books like these is the wide distribution the publishing company can afford. It gets reviewed in major magazines and unsuspecting people fall victim to the praise of major book reviewers.
Take Jeffrey Weiss' advice and check out THE TWILIGHT ZONE: UNLOCKING THE DOOR TO A TELEVISION CLASSIC by Martin Grams Jnr. also available on Amazon.com which covers the entire series with 800 plus pages of behind-the-scenes trivia, exclusive interviews with cast and crew and a detail level will exceed anyone's expectation. If you are looking for a book that covers "everything" about the TV series, the Grams book is the one to invest.
