Not all of the Limits episodes have aged well; the best -- and [The Zanti Misfits] is among them -- are those that mix a little moralizing into their sci-fi. Good stuff.

Three of the season's best episodes -- "O.B.I.T.," "Nightmare," and "The Guests" -- are merciless classics of the sci-fi and horror genres, metaphorically examining our surveillance and torture states in their infancy.

Twilight Zone never looked better.

The Outer Limits set the bar in many ways, and set it high.
May 17, 2018
Screenwriting is a strong point of the series, and many of the episodes display a philosophical streak that more than makes up for what they lack in terms of convincing special effects.

The result is a B-movie-inspired anthology series that looks like a European art film -- one that's aged surprisingly well.
April 25, 2018
Nearly all of the best episodes were from the show's far superior first season.

After Rod Serling's original The Twilight Zone became a hit on CBS, it didn't take long for other TV sci-fi anthology shows to pop up on television. The Outer Limits was one of the best.
April 25, 2018
The Outer Limits boasted scary, gruesome alien creatures, innovative scripts by such noted sci-fi writers as Harlan Ellison, and such guest stars as Gloria Grahame, Miriam Hopkins, Martin Landau, Sally Kellerman, David McCallum and Lloyd Nolan.

While Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone is generally considered the more intellectual of the two, The Outer Limits boasted something more blunt and effective: monsters.
April 25, 2018
Don't pass up a chance to see "Demon With a Glass Hand," the best episode of the black-and-white series, which ran for two seasons starting in 1963 and boasted top writers, directors and actors of the time.
