The magic of the original Twilight Zone was the almost complete contribution Rod Serling made to the product. But he burned out after 3 seasons or so, and the switch to full hour shows made it that much harder?

Who else could have made a similar contribution to such a show? Maybe Orson Welles. I'm hard-pressed to think of somebody else who could do so many things for a film, and make good results. Who could do that today?

I’ve always thought that the episodes written by Richard Matheson and Charles Beaumont wrote were the best of the show. Far less sanctimony.
