If you are a fan of the Twilight Zone, then nothing more needs to be said. Buy this set. It will take you to another dimension of time and space....with a beautiful picture and a ton of extra content.
For those who haven't watched this series and are not familiar with it, here are the pro's and cons:
PRO
You'll finally understand the references behind all those Tree House of Horror episodes of the Simpsons
Burgess Meredith
CON
You are going to realize that not only has every sci-fi and horror movie you ever saw been recycled content, but that in every case, it was done better the first time.
Doesn't Get Any Better November 8, 2008

Even if you have the series on VHS or previous DVD releases, the picture and sound quality is SUPERB. The transfers perfect. The extras make it worth the purchase. The "Submitted For Yoru Approval" documentary is an extra DVD so be sure to avoid buying that or you'll end up with a duplicate. Each season box set (this set contains all five seasons) contains a disc with one classic TZ comic book from the 1960s and 1970s in PDF format so you can read a classic issue on your computer.
One small note: I agree with other reviewers. THE TWILIGHT ZONE: UNLOCKING THE DOOR TO A TELEVISION CLASSIC by Martin Grams is 800 plus pages includes "everything" about the classic series and is a wonderful companion with the DVDs. I know the DVD set is a bit pricey, but after you get it you'll understand why it was worth the price. Same with the book which details Serling's writing career on radio, early television and Twilight Zone is well researched and highly detailed. Exclusive interviews with cast and crew and behind-the-scenes trivia will floor you. What you do is watch an episode and then read up on it in the book and you'll discover a wealth of trivia that makes this worthy of appreciation. Both the DVD set and the book is on Amazon.com
A Rod Serling Party! November 1, 2008

Over the years (before the series got snatched up by the Sci-Fi Channel) I always tried to tape as many episodes as I could whenever KTLA, a local channel out of Los Angeles, broadcast their annual Fourth of July or Thanksgiving Twilight Zone marathons.
Of course the stuff recorded from TV was always butchered in some way; not including the fact that you had to deal with the dang commercials. When CBS started releasing some VHS versions in the 90's, I wasn't sold at all. There were only a handful of random episodes on each tape AND each tape was kind of pricey.
Even when CBS finally released the series on DVD a few years back, something was still missing. Wasn't until they put together TZ - The Complete Definitive Collection that this series gets the release it deserves.
Every episode is included in this collection seperated by season. Each episode is presented whole and complete including Rod Serling's special preview segment which I've never had the chance to see before getting this collection. There are many many specials including commentary from some of the original stars, unbelievable!
Of course I have many favorite episodes and memories from this magical series. One episode in particular that I am very fond of is "A Passage for Trumpet" starring Jack Klugman. I relate deeply to the transformative quality of this story and greatly admire Klugman's intensity and creativity in portraying this character.
No doubt Twilight Zone is a very very special series and finally there is a complete DVD release that properly showcases the wonder and magic of The Twilight Zone. Long live Rod Serling and long live Twilight Zone: The Complete Definitive Collection!
WONDERFUL SET OF DVD'S October 31, 2008
Ed Duplissie (North Vancouver, British Columbia Canada)
I purchased this set of DVD'S and I am ever glad I did! The image is clear and all the extras are wonderful. I'm all for shopping Canadian but I recomend that you purchase it from Amazon.com. Save a lot of money.
