Was watching the Twilight Zone marathon last night on SyFy channel. I thought about one in four episodes were quite good. The rest were barely watchable. Most of the acting and dialogue is awful. To counteract the protagonist, most of the subsidiary characters are all either over the top mean or stubborny stupid or both. I know there were several good writers for the show, but Rod Serling's overarching message is that people are terrible. I think Serling just hated people and it really shows. I know the show was innovative and daring for it''s time, but it hasn't aged well at all. Just my opinion. Any thoughts?
