No,that would be a fair description - I enjoyed the series when when I first saw it in the '60s.I remember one episode in particular that had my brother and I sitting in the edge of our chairs - "The 30-Fathom Grave".There was another series I also liked,"One Step Beyond" - which slightly pre-dated "The Twilight Zone".

@bijouxbroussard Well, that comment has now whet my appetite for trying to find a few episodes!

“I Sing The Body Electric “ by Ray Bradbury
Interesting note. I read an Article on Serling and the Twilight Zone. Bradbury and a few other contemporary writers at the time, had a problem with Serling stealing themes from them when he ran dry on ideas.
Bradbury’s wife accused him of taking the episode “ Where is Everybody” from Ray’s
Story “The Silent Towns “

Based on a true story isn’t a reliable statement when it comes to movies and TV

@DocSavage Sigh. Understood. There have been a couple of episodes based near where I live with stories I have recognized.

Ray Bradbury was one of the great Sci-fi writers of the time. You can find “The Ray Bradbury Theater “ on Roku, and a few other streaming channels. Highly recommend.
You might know him for some of the book/movie based on his work : Fahrenheit 451,
The Martian Chronicles, Something Wicked This Way Comes , The Beast From 20,000 Fantoms, The Illustrated Man.
Also, there are four, or five episodes of the Alfred Hitchcock show based on his short stories.
