eclipsemagazine.com/syfys-21st-annual-twilight-zone-marathon-goes-hd/Entire series, I am so there. Love the Twilight Zone and do this every year, plus while the other seasons are on Netflix, season four isn't so this'd be a good chance to get caught up on it. They're even playing some episode I've never heard of called WWE SmackDown! Dunno if I'll watch that one though, sounds bad.

It's wise to stay away from season 4 with the exception of "On Thursday We Leave For Home". Twilight Zone was not made for hour long episodes, if it had to be an hour they should have done 2 segments in each episode.

Show had problems with its budget anyway, doing two a week would have either led to them blowing tons of money and getting cancelled or being very cheap.

That is why a few episodes in season 2 look different and more like a soap opera

I agree that The Twilight Zone worked much better as a half hour series, but I think it's good to watch every episode at least once. Yes, even season 4! That said it contains some stinkers. The Thirty-Fathom Grave in particular is a sleeping pill in hour long drama form.

What's the importance of running old series in HD? I know it'll attract some curious viewers and of course most everyone seems to have and HD tv, but I guess I'm a traditionalist. Hell, I know I am

Hell, I know I am All but 6 episodes in Season 2 of Twilight Zone were shot and edited on film and thus have all the potential resolution and quality of anything else shot on 35mm film (exceeding that of most films and television shows from the past decade and a half that were finished on 2K Digital Intermediates, which is still the current standard, so the Twilight Zone negatives have higher inherent resolution than, say, the final master of The Martian or Star Wars: The Force Awakens). The HD transfers were well done. It doesn't break from tradition to faithfully present source material. The 35mm negatives of the film shot Twilight Zones have greater inherent quality still than the HD scans that now date to 2005 or earlier (with the first DVD set based on them being released in 2005).

All "Now in HD" sounds to me is it will zoom the picture and crop out the top and bottom to fill the widescreen, which I hate (and why I'll never watch the simpsons on fxx)

Seinfeld and Friends both actually digitized their former aspect ratio and made it cleaner.

Yea I see I'm wrong and that its the original aspect ratio still, I know seinfeld was actually filmed in 16:9 so that is cool.

On the upside, neat that they have cleaned up versions.
On the downside, goodbye Viacom 1990 logos (and on the rare occasion, the V of Doom). Also, assuming that these came from DVD prints, and that it's CBS (aka Constantly Butchering Shows)...are any music changes or edits made?
