The Zone Zone

"Bougy! Bougy! Bougy!" We review "Passage for Trumpet" and Adam is in his elements with moody lighting, sad jazz and hangdog Jack Klugman. Join us as we take a look at life after death and some smooth brass to boot.

Yikes... Well, this doesn't age well. We don't hold anything back as we review "The Chaser" and take it apart and view from a whole bunch of angles. This has highs and lows and really really big books.

Adam and Dave review "A Stop at Willoughby" a push, push, push episode of stressed out ad executives, mean bosses, and meaner wives. We both sympathize terribly with the protagonist as he faces his dark night of the soul. Adam reminisces on his time living in the actual Willoughby, Ohio Serling drew his references from for this episode. Spoiler: not as many fishin' holes.

Adam and Dave crack open "Nightmare as a Child" and are both impressed with its themes of repressed memory, trauma, and hella subtext. This is a really compelling narrative to unpack in session. Join in the comment section and share with a friend!

Adam and Dave love this jazzy gangster episode. They account for inflation and talk guardian angels/devils, amazing acting, stunning set design, and gargantuan cuff links. Also, Dave loses us our cover band demographic.

Adam and Dave review "Big Tall Wish" and go deep talking about minority representation in media, separating the art from the artist, and just how damn right on Serling was as a moral role model. 

We also talk about the episode, lol.

Adam and Dave face "Execution" as they review a western/time travel fish out of water tale. Dave provides a deep dive in Bartender's corner and references Looper, again. Adam is baffled by a third act that comes out of nowhere. Let us know what you think of this one as it left us a bit divided.

Great martian buns of steel! Adam and Dave marvel at weird Grecian-styled martians and their high hem lines. They review Twilight Zone episode "People are alike all Over" starring Roddy McDowell. The duo analyze a Martian society based, apparently, on cuckolding and the importance of a good bay window.

Adam and Dave are hot for teacher as they review "Long Live Walter Jameson" We review this world history hearthrob and his eternal struggle to land a wifey. This is an underrated episode with strong one-on-one acting, smart special effects and an absolute mastery of script pacing. Join along and most of all, share with a friend!

You either die a Jerry Reagan or you live long enough to become Arthur Curtis... We review "A World of Difference" and marvel over the set design and masterful stage direction of one of the most ambitiously meta episodes to date. And shocker, this one has an angry wife... now where have we seen that before?
