Rating: Summary: The New Twilight Zone Review: "This DVD is good, "The Old Twilight Zone Is very well written by Rod Serling who is the King of all other Science Fiction writtter's."I have seen every episode of "The Twilight Zone" "Its a Great Wild Tv Show." "I have purchased the book's "Twilight Zone Companion" "Twilight Zone 2000, "Tz2k" Written By, Rod Serling's ... "Author Mark Zicree, did a perfect job on the book "Twilight Zone Companion," It tells all about the Tv Show right from the very first episode." "The Next Twilight Zone 2000" "TZ2K Book, has all new stories that I thought, I was never going to see in this life time." "I was surprized because you all know there is nothing but re-written and re-runned movies, like the stories in book's and Tv inc." "This book is really great just like Rod Serling's " Twilight Zone classical show," Only with bran new stories that are wild, and there very interesting." "I know one thing "The Twilight Zone will never die, the memories of Rod Serling remain along with his great tv show "The Twilight Zone," that still airs on the scifi tv station." "Now that this book is out in the web, it's carring a "Next Twilight Zone," right into our living rooms and dens and bedrooms and 30% Percent of the population doesn't even know it exist." I'm guessing!"Which means the Author of this book is well trained by Rod Serling, and he asking for a 50 Million dollars in contract's to air his stories on Television, or he says he will just sell the book on the street corners, or perform Tv Commercial's to adverise the book "Tz2k.' "I know one thing, When this book does become fully exposed in the United States Of America, it will sell out fast, The Graphics on the front cover are very attractive. and the stories inside the book are supernatural, meaning they are really good, there new, wild, bizzare, fascinating, entertaining." "I never seen a book anywhere that is like it, it makes "Steven King" and "Steven Spielberg" look like they are standing up in a classroom telling the class their 1st grade stories that they wrote when they were in kindergarden."

Rating: Summary: horrible packaging for a 40th Anniversary Review: A flimsy box holds 3 double cd cases. No liner notes, no keep cases. A cheap way to celebrate the Anniversary.
Rating: Summary: Disappointed Review: Although I commend Panasonic for trying to put together an anniversary pack with a variety of episodes, I wasn't impressed with the episodes selected. Save for four or five selections, the rest are just throwaways. Where's "The New Exhibit" or some of the other underrated hour-long episodes? We'll have to wait and see, I guess. Also, I hope to see a "Night Gallery" compilation sometime in the near future.
Rating: Summary: * * *s for Packaging Review: Coming from the same company that releases the rest of the Twilight Zone boxes and this collection has to be placed in non-DVD-standard CD jewel cases is a joke. Now I can't display the whole collection neatly just like the rest of the DVD collection. They just don't fit well together. I just don't understand how these companies (Panasonic, Disney, and others) can make some of the most stupid decisions in releasing (or not releasing) their titles. Otherwise, all the selections for this collection is top rated - deserving * * * * *s. PS: Not providing subtitle is another under-utilization of all the DVD capabilities that should come with all DVD releases. Image, Panasonic, and Anchor Bay are some of the worse offenders. On the other hand, Warner, MGM, Columbia are the best in utilizing full DVD features.
Rating: Summary: Good bargain for all that you get Review: Getting five DVD's for this price is good no matter what they are, and if they are Twilight Zone episodes -- you better grab this deal right away! The gift set's contents include a variety of episodes, from sentimental to downright scary, all of which any Twilight Zone fan will enjoy seeing again and again. See the early work of Robert Redford, Charles Bronson, William Shatner and Lee Marvin -- when they were hotties! Rod Serling and the creators were way ahead of their time, and the "making of" documentary proves this. The only problem with the gift set is the strange packaging: you get the DVD's in double-disc cases, thrown into a box that looks like it was designed for more content.
Rating: Summary: Some mediocre, but mostly good -- worth it. Review: I agree that the selection of episodes in the gift pack (as is also true of the regular DVD releases of TZ episodes) represents more of a random sampling than an only-the-best selection. Nonetheless, I'm quite pleased with the overall quality of the included episodes. While segments like "Probe 7--Over and Out" are mediocre at best, the collection still includes classics like "Time Enough at Last", "A Game of Pool" (with terrific performances from Jack Klugman and Jonathan Winters), and "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet." Of the 19 episodes, I find 15 of them to be well worth owning--not a bad ratio. I'm also impressed with the Rod Serling documentary included in this set. Rather than an insipid fluff piece about how wonderful TZ is (which is unfortunately the more common type of "documentary feature" usually included in DVD products), this is a satisfyingly in-depth look at Rod Serling's entire career which aired on PBS as part of the "American Masters" series. A nice bonus. I do agree that the packaging is sub-par. No liner notes, and all discs are crammed into 2-CD jewel boxes. This is unimpressive for an "anniversary tribute" set. These drawbacks are purely cosmetic, though, and do not detract from my enjoyment of the set. The transfer is generally well executed, capturing the contrast and detail of the often striking black-and-white cinematography. At its best, TZ is like classic film noir distilled into 24-minute doses. The two episodes originally shot on videotape instead of film for budgetary reasons ("Night of the Meek" and "Long Distance Call") fare less well, but this is to be expected. So: Overall, a good sampling of episodes with a satisfying bonus documentary. I thoroughly enjoy it.
Rating: Summary: Disappointed Review: I agree with the other critics because I am collecting all of the volumes on DVD of the Twilight Zone and the gift set does not match the rest of the volumes. It stinks that there are no subtitles or language-switches and the fact that the first 15 volumes have a different start screen than do the rest of the volumes. I am getting rid of the "gift box" set (if you can call it that) and am just going to inverst in the real first 5 volumes.
