Just received a promo from Netflix that starting today they are streaming four full seasons of the original Twilight Zone!
This is great news since I have tried unsuccessfully to access it through the US Paramount Plus with a VPN and through the US version of TUBI  I know CityTv airs a couple of episodes eac night at 3:00 am and CityTV+ has it streaming for subscribers but having it on Netflix is great news.  Also, Netflix is now streaming the classic shows
Hawaiii Five-O. and The Love Boat.

Have you tried it with a U.S. VPN on Pluto TV? They have it, too, and it works for me. 

Twilight Zone on Pluto TV

Twilight zone amazes me. Just as I think I have already seen them all, another black and white classic pops up out of nowhere and airs on City TV late night. (weekends) 

 

This is certainly a timely topic. TV critic Allan Sepinwall has just released a pretty extensive biography of Rod Serling, tracing his life and career from his early overachieving childhood to his success as a writer and creator of classics like the Twilight Zone. 

The author relates that Serling's perfect world ended when he went off to fight in the war as a paratrooper. 

"He loved telling stories, definitely. But it was also therapy. He went through a really traumatic time in the war, fighting in The Philippines, seeing friends die in front of him, getting wounded — he had a bad knee for the rest of his life from shrapnel. And then, when he was still overseas, his father dropped dead, and he couldn’t even get home for the funeral. Serling went from this really idyllic childhood to seeing people decapitated (on the battlefield)."

Alan Sepinwall makes case that Rod Serling was ‘TV’s First Visionary’ in new book
