Although often considered predominantly <a href="/wiki/Science_fiction_on_television" title="Science fiction on television">science-fiction</a>, the show's <a href="/wiki/Paranormal" title="Paranormal">paranormal</a> and <a href="/wiki/Franz_Kafka#"Kafkaesque"" title="Franz Kafka">Kafkaesque</a> events leaned the show much closer to <a href="/wiki/Fantasy" title="Fantasy">fantasy</a> and <a href="/wiki/Horror_fiction" title="Horror fiction">horror</a> (there are about twice as many fantasy episodes as science fiction). The phrase "twilight zone" has entered the vernacular, used to describe surreal experiences. </p><p>The series featured both established stars and younger actors who would become much better known later. Serling served as <a href="/wiki/Executive_producer#Motion_pictures_and_television" title="Executive producer">executive producer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Head_writer" title="Head writer">head writer</a>; he wrote or co-wrote 92 of the show's 156 episodes. He was also the show's <a href="/wiki/Television_presenter" title="Television presenter">host</a> and <a href="/wiki/Narration" title="Narration">narrator</a>, delivering monologues at the beginning and end of each episode, and typically appeared on-screen to address the audience directly during the opening scene. Serling's opening and closing narrations usually summarize the episode's events encapsulating how and why the main characters had entered the Twilight Zone. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Development">Development</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Twilight_Zone_(1959_TV_series)&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Development"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>By the late 1950s, Rod Serling was a prominent name in American <a href="/wiki/Broadcast_programming" title="Broadcast programming">television</a>. His successful television plays included “Patterns” (for <i><a href="/wiki/Kraft_Television_Theatre" title="Kraft Television Theatre">Kraft Television Theatre</a></i>) and “<a href="/wiki/Requiem_for_a_Heavyweight" title="Requiem for a Heavyweight">Requiem for a Heavyweight</a>” (for <i><a href="/wiki/Playhouse_90" title="Playhouse 90">Playhouse 90</a></i>), but he was frustrated by constant <a href="/wiki/Censorship" title="Censorship">changes and edits</a> made by the networks and sponsors. In “Requiem", the line "Got a match?" had to be cut because the sponsor sold lighters; other programs had similar striking of words that might remind viewers of competitors to the sponsor, including one case in which the sponsor, <a href="/wiki/Ford_Motor_Company" title="Ford Motor Company">Ford Motor Company</a>, had the <a href="/wiki/Chrysler_Building" title="Chrysler Building">Chrysler Building</a> removed from a picture of the <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a> <a href="/wiki/Skyline" title="Skyline">skyline</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>According to comments in his 1957 anthology <i>Patterns,</i> Serling had been trying to delve into material more controversial than his works of the early 1950s. This led to <i>Noon on Doomsday</i> for the <i><a href="/wiki/The_United_States_Steel_Hour" title="The United States Steel Hour">United States Steel Hour</a></i> in 1956, a commentary by Serling on the defensiveness and total lack of repentance he saw in the <a href="/wiki/Mississippi" title="Mississippi">Mississippi</a> town where the <a href="/wiki/Emmett_Till" title="Emmett Till">murder of Emmett Till</a> took place.

CBS was banking on a <a href="/wiki/Nielsen_ratings" class="mw-redirect" title="Nielsen ratings">rating</a> of at least 21 or 22, but its initial numbers were much worse. The series' future was jeopardized when its third episode, "<a href="/wiki/Mr._Denton_on_Doomsday" title="Mr. Denton on Doomsday">Mr. Denton on Doomsday</a>" earned a 16.3 rating. Still, the show attracted a large enough audience to survive a brief hiatus in November, after which it finally surpassed its competition on <a href="/wiki/American_Broadcasting_Company" title="American Broadcasting Company">ABC</a> and <a href="/wiki/NBC" title="NBC">NBC</a> and persuaded its sponsors (<a href="/wiki/General_Foods" title="General Foods">General Foods</a> and <a href="/wiki/Kimberly-Clark" title="Kimberly-Clark">Kimberly-Clark</a>) to stay on until the end of the season. </p><p>With the exception of "<a href="/wiki/The_Chaser_(The_Twilight_Zone)" title="The Chaser (The Twilight Zone)">The Chaser</a>", the first season featured scripts written by Rod Serling, <a href="/wiki/Charles_Beaumont" title="Charles Beaumont">Charles Beaumont</a> and <a href="/wiki/Richard_Matheson" title="Richard Matheson">Richard Matheson</a>.

Serling did appear on screen in <i>Twilight Zone</i> promotional spots plugging the following week's episode – just not in the episodes themselves. These promo spots were unseen for several decades after their initial airings; while many have been released in the DVD and Blu-ray releases of <i>The Twilight Zone</i>, a few are lost completely and some survive only as audio tracks.

However, Serling's input was limited this season; he still provided the majority of the teleplays, but as executive producer, he was virtually absent and as host, his artful narrations had to be shot back-to-back against a gray background during his infrequent trips to Los Angeles.

"For one reason or other, Jim Aubrey decided he was sick of the show… [H]e claimed that it was too far over budget and that the ratings weren't good enough", explained Froug. But Serling countered by telling the <i><a href="/wiki/Daily_Variety" class="mw-redirect" title="Daily Variety">Daily Variety</a></i> that he had "decided to cancel the network". <a href="/wiki/American_Broadcasting_Company" title="American Broadcasting Company">ABC</a> showed interest in bringing Serling over to their network to write a more explicitly horror-themed series, <i>Witches, Warlocks and Werewolves,</i> but Serling was not impressed. "The network executives seem to prefer weekly ghouls, and we have what appears to be a considerable difference in opinion. I don't mind my show being supernatural, but I don't want to be booked into a graveyard every week." Shortly afterwards, Serling sold his 40% share in <i>The Twilight Zone</i> to CBS, leaving the show and all projects involving the supernatural behind him until 1969, when <i><a href="/wiki/Night_Gallery" title="Night Gallery">Night Gallery</a></i> debuted. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Casting">Casting</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Twilight_Zone_(1959_TV_series)&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Casting"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/List_of_The_Twilight_Zone_(1959_TV_series)_guest_stars" title="List of The Twilight Zone (1959 TV series) guest stars">List of The Twilight Zone (1959 TV series) guest stars</a></div> <p>Being an anthology series with no recurring characters, <i>The Twilight Zone</i> featured an array of guest stars, some of whom appeared in multiple episodes.
