Dear God! Why did they have to ruin Rod Serling's wonderful series! Okay, the 1985 incarnation wasn't too bad. Scary, but it lacked the original moral in a tale that Rod's 1959 version got across. Now this 2002 version. Totally misses the point. Did we really need a modern remake of 'The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street?' or a follow up to 'It's A Good Life?' The answer is NO. This series has highly predictable endings, a ho-hum host (Forrest Whitaker) whose monologues put me to sleep, unlike Mr. Sterling's.
This show shouldn't have been made. I was 8 when the 1985 version came on, and I watch the DVD's of the 1959 version religously. I watched 2 hours of this 'New' 2002 Twilight Zone, and it's not that great, and it never will be. This show shouldn't have even been put on.....
-4 of 10 stars.
