HUNH?

Just WHAT are you actually saying...that the TWILIGHT ZONE is just actors and actresses and crew and it's all just fiction, as IF I neither know nor accept that fact, but, instead, imagine that it is reality? Or something else?

Since my parents were part of the cast, in the very FIRST full length production of the the Gilbert & Sullivan operetta, THE MIKADO, on NBC, in 1949, and I knew ALL of the members of that cast, extremely well, watched some of the rehearsals, and later on, had dinner with the man who had done ALL of the makeup ( he later went on to be an OSCAR winning makeup artist in Hollywood, as well as a very well known author ) and was allowed to ask him a question, which he was kind enough to answer, though I was a very little child at that time ), I'd say that I've known quite a LOT about the backstage workings of T.V. shows, for the past 75 years. I also know that back then, shows that were done in NYC were filmed in Kinescope and sadly, most were later erased and filmed over.

Add to that, the fact that my parents were friends with a now well known couple who wrote scripts for early T.V. "playhouse" series and then mostly for Hollywood movies.

So please explain what it is that "will make A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE " to me. I'm waiting with bated breath to read your "insightful" reply.
