Book Reviews of The Twilight Zone Companion
Book Review: The Twighlight Zone Companion
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are fan, or MORE than just a fan of the original television show, the Twilight Zone, then this is the book for you! The definitive compendium of not only every show, but of all those little tidbits ABOUT the show, its writer, producers and what it took to get it on the air. With detailed coverage of each episode, that includes a plot synopsis, Rod Serling's narrations, critical commentary, behind-the-scenes stories and anecdotes from the original artists who created the series, a complete list of cast and credits, and over 200 production photographs, this is bargain and half. Well worth every penny and then some!Book Review: definitive guide...
Summary: 5 Stars
There is nothing else like this book. If you like the series, or if you still watch the series, you've got to have this book. It is an excellent effort, a lot of historical tid-bits. Many observations and insights. It does have chapters on "Twilight Zone-The Movie," and the later Twilight Zone TV series. It also has info on "Night Gallery." It's fun to read and a great compainion to watching the episodes, it helps you appreciate the acting and writing talent much more. While you're at it, be sure and locate and buy a Twilight Zone Pinball machine - it's also excellent.Book Review: You're never alone with this "companion"!
Summary: 5 Stars
This fantastic book details every episode with a cast list, plot summary, the begining and ending Serling voice-overs, and even behind-the-scenes info on the crew, the story's origin, and the actual filming itself.They're all here, and in one collection. I read this thing everywhere -- at lunch, on the bus, late at night, heck, even on the throne (but that's probably a little too much information.)
This may just be the best book I've yet purchased from Amazon.com.
TRUST ME, YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY IF YOU ADD THIS TO YOUR SHOPPING CART!
Book Review: from all the citizenry of the Zone----
Summary: 5 Stars
That's right! You get it all here, every season, every episode, all the twists and turns. Lots information about Rod Serling and the other people involved in this fantastic show. You get a synopsis of every episode including the plots, the writer (including whether the story came from a short story or was an origional), who directed, produced, starred, and composed (if applicable) in every episode! Also, there is a discussion of every episode with lots of interviews with the actors, directors, etc. This is great for fans.
Book Review: Buy It You'll Be Glad
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had this book since it came out in 1992 and it is a great guide for all the shows. A must-have for all Twilight Zone fans. Sorry that many reviews don't like the fact that Zicree is critical of some shows but he had to be if wanted to write an honest book. Afterall, not all the shows were gems. Some were prety lame but the majority of them worked and still hold up. You can't ask for a better book detailing the shows.
