Twilight Zone TV Show Originator
Was created and presented by Rod Serling,
Original Intro (1959)
There is a fifth dimension, beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call The Twilight Zone.
— Rod Serling
Season 2 Intro (1960–61)
You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind; a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead—your next stop, the Twilight Zone.
— Rod Serling
Rod's Date of Birth & Death:
December 25, 1924 – June 28, 1975

The Twilight Zone (marketed as Twilight Zone for its final two seasons) was a huge American science fiction horror anthology television series created and presented by Rod Serling, which ran for five seasons on CBS from 1959 to 1964.Each episode presents a stand-alone story in which characters find themselves dealing with often disturbing or unusual events, an experience described as entering "the Twilight Zone," often with a surprise ending and a moral.
​
The Twilight Zone aired for five seasons (the first three presented half-hour episodes, the fourth had hour-long episodes, and the fifth returned to the half-hour format). It won many television and drama awards and drew critical acclaim for Serling and his co-workers. Although it had loyal fans, The Twilight Zone had only moderate ratings and was twice canceled and revived. After five years and 156 episodes (92 written by Serling), he grew weary of the series.
In 1964, he decided not to oppose its third and final cancellation.
