I like the episodes, but after reading the original script, there were a few flaws that didn’t fit the story.
Any society, no matter how totalitarian, would still have a need for a librarian. They would have to keep records, files, etc. someone to keep things organized.
In the first draft of the script. After being considered “obsolete” the chancellor accepts his fate , and calmly awaits his death. Serling was a good writer, but he occasionally went out of character.

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".

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.

@DocSavage I’m very familiar, with Oscar Beregi and Joseph Schildkraut.
But that épisode deals with Nazis and the camps.
"He’s Alive !" is one of the hour episodes, dealing with Neo-Nazis and how the hatred takes hold in a community.

I think a lot of the great sci-fi minds were primarily students of human behavior who understood the psychology of society and using history as a guide, projected and extrapolated logical outcomes of certain observable phenomenon and developing trends in technology and governance over long periods of time, among other things.
