　　This new The Twilight Zone follows the format of the original show, which ran from 1959 to 1964. The original series is a collection of short stories, each about a mysterious dimension that its narrator refers to as "not only of sight and sound, but of mind." Episodes covered a wide variety of supernatural and science fiction events that befell ordinary people, which range from a frantic driver being pursued by a mysterious hitchhiker to a beautiful woman born in a society that values ugly facial features.

　　Alongside news of the The Twilight Zone's premiere date, we also learned that Stephen King's The Stand is set to become an All Access series, while The Good Fight Season 3 also get a release date.
