New Release: The Twilight Zone Season 1 Blu-ray

On Sept. 14, 2010, Image Entertainment released the complete first season of The Twilight Zone on Blu-ray. And we’re talking about the original Twilight Zone — the ground-breaking classic TV series from the great Rod Serling that premiered on television in 1959.

New 1080p high-definition transfers have been created from the original camera negatives of the science-fiction TV show, as well as uncompressed PCM audio, remastered from the original magnetic soundtracks.

Additionally, the set contains new bonus features, including the rarely seen, never-before-released unofficial pilot “The Time Element,” written by Serling and hosted by Desi Arnaz.

Included on the DVD are 19 new audio commentaries, 34 isolated music scores, 18 radio dramas, new and archival cast/crew and scholar interviews, a “Tales of Tomorrow” episode of “What You Need,” the original unaired pilot version of “Where Is Everybody?” along with Serling’s network pitch, Serling’s audio lectures from Sherwood Oaks College, syndication promos, sponsor billboards, alternate opening and closing narrations, clips from the Emmy Awards ceremony featuring wins for the series in Writing and Cinematography categories, and more.

The five-disc The Twilight Zone: Season One Blu-ray set carries a suggested retail price of $99.98.
