  • Superb ❤️

    So glad I happened upon your podcast 😁as I’m as I’m always looking for a fresh take on a show I have loved for a very long time(I wasn’t around for TZ’s original airing but found it a bit later)

    You two are excellent at bringing a new, smart and informative perspective to a show that the younger audience may not realize was a precursor to many of the things they watch today.

    Keep up the awesome content 🥳🙏❤️

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

An Interview with Jeff Serling
Q: How did Serling Fest come together and evolve into its current form?
Jeff and the organizing board started Serling Fest in 2017 as Twilight Zone Comes Home and gradually expanded to a broader celebration of Rod Serling's legacy, with annual events, a dedicated committee, a virtual option during COVID, a strong fan community, and a focus on education for younger generations through talks, archives, and author appearances.
An Interview with Jeff Serling
Q: What are Jeff Serling's favorite sci-fi and horror films, and how did his upbringing shape his view of the genre?
Jeff talks about loving Star Wars, Flash Gordon, The Thing, Aliens, and Stephen King works, explaining that King's material was considered acceptable reading in his family while film adaptations like The Shining captivated him; he also shares how growing up in a Serling household shaped his appreciation for storytelling and the significance of grounding fantastical plots in human experiences.
Two (Season 3 Episode 1)
Q: What stood out most to you about the production or trivia behind the episode?
The episode marks Montgomery Pittman's unique role as both writer and director, the retrofitted backlot shoot on a street slated for demolition, and Elizabeth Montgomery's career moment just before Bewitched, which adds a lot of historical texture to the listening experience.
Two (Season 3 Episode 1)
Q: Would you like to tell us your overall thoughts on the episode?
We thought it was a solid, middle-of-the-road start to season three with strong performances and production value, a quiet score, and an intriguing, accelerated romance set in a post-war world; nothing earth-shattering, but well-executed and rewatchable.
