The recently revived series on FOX averaged 4.6 million viewers on its first episode. Indeed, the title itself conjures up thoughts of fantastic stories that bridge several forms of fiction to create a unique genre of morality tales with a touch of irony, unlimited by the boundaries of conventional fiction. Broadcast from 1959 to 1964, the show has run ever since in syndication, making it one of the longest running television shows of all time, creating a new genre of shows similar to the \u003cem\u003eX-Files\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eTwin Peaks.\u003c\/em\u003e Five writers created the core of the show, and together these men fashioned the bulk of the 156 original episodes: Rod Serling, Richard Matheson, Charles Beaumont, George Clayton Johnson, and Earl Hamner. All went on to other projects in film, television, theater, and print, but their involvement in the \u003cem\u003eTwilight Zone\u003c\/em\u003e is well known to fans of the series. \u003cem\u003eThe Twilight Zone Scripts of Earl Hamner\u003c\/em\u003e contains reprints of the eight episodes written by Hamner, along with Albarella's commentary on each story: \"The Hunt,\" \"A Piano in the House,\" \"Jess-Belle,\" \"Ring-a-Ding Girl,\" \"You Drive,\" \"Black Leather Jackets,\" \"Stopover in a Quiet Town,\" and \"The Bewitchin' Pool.\" Also included is a \"lost\" \u003cem\u003eTwilight Zone\u003c\/em\u003e short story by Mr. Hamner and an interview with Albarella that covers the background details of how Hamner became involved in the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-141987\"\u003eEarl Hamner\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cumberland House Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.22h x 6.10w x 0.96d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781581823301\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1581823304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-PER\"\u003ePerforming Arts\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-PER010050\"\u003eTelevision | Screenwriting\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Cumberland House Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42656526041325,"sku":"9781581823301","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_b3d90213-795b-4062-807c-323ae6182ffe.jpg?v=1649297964","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-twilight-zone-scripts-of-earl-hamner-9781581823301","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
