Rod Serling was surely one of the most idealistic, outspoken, and iconoclastic writers of television’s Golden Age.

Wonderful to find a post on the inimitable Rod Serling. “Twilight Zone” was a seminal influence on my work, as was the writings of his main TZ contributors, Richard Matheson and Charles Beaumont. The series had a brilliant concept that allowed it a limitless choice of stories, the best of which still resonate today.
Thanks for helping keep the legacy of this TV pioneer alive…

So don’t worry, I’m doing my part to make sure this very great writer has a home here too…
ps…your blog is FANTASTIC
