In fact, they’re novel enough to please younger listeners as well. We rated them five hearts based on the quality of the stories, the actor readers, and the digital mastering.” —Heartland Review “This sparkling example of radio drama is a pleasant surprise. With top-grade production values and a generally excellent cast, this step into another dimension of time and space offers the light humor, whimsical sci-fi, and occasional drama that made the TV series a classic.” —AudioFile The Twilight Zone Radio Dramas will keep you glued to the edge of your seat, whether listening in your home or while driving in your car. Each tale unites classic stories and musical scores with contemporary sound effects and readings by a distinguished lineup of guest stars. Adapted from original scripts written for the television show created by Rod Serling that aired from 1959 to 1965, these radio dramas were contemporized and expanded to accommodate a radio format. Serling’s widow, Carol Serling, praised the radio adaptations, calling them “truly astounding.” This collection includes five stories: The Lateness of the Hour Here is a highlight from this collection from a story originally written by Rod Serling: A Kind of Stopwatch, starring Lou Diamond Phillips. The world’s most talkative bore gets a magical stopwatch that can stop everything except him. But when he misuses it, a wonderful conversation piece becomes a real party killer. |
