Some people thought it was ok and some people have absolutely hated in it split opinion. We're going to be ranking all of the 10 episode of The Twilight Zone Season 1 and determining which is the worst and which is the best so what order sould you binge the hell out of it. Let me warn you before we start, about the spoilers ahead.

10. The Wunderkind

It engaged and even interested us though most of the runtime. But to understand the message that was trying to convey; if I'm being honest it didn't really land. The only performance worthy of being recognized, was the actor John Cho. Other than that, I thought Jacob was really annoying in the episode and not sure whether, that was intentional. If it was, then it's good. You connect with him but it was a bit of a weak attempt to the story and delivery of the message and for that reason. It's coming last on the list.

9. Point of Origin

The concept complicated the story too much. Some cool things like, to make us see the inside of her mind. When you think it's just Psychological, the plot actually turns out to be about aliens revolving around, trying to find somewhere. But then all of a sudden being ostracized and asked to leave the drop of a hat. It had the potential to be so powerful however, I feel as though this episode over complicated itself by having an extremely long run time and a lot of destinations. It lacked any form of substance despite the fact that the message has so much potential. It's a shame.

8. Not All Men

This episode, that we were gifted with ,wasn't too bad. It was messaging and it didn't attempt to give subtly. But just hit straight. The comment on voilent masculinity pins behavior on women which can be wrong in the certain aspects and women have to deal with the stupidity that lot of men have over the battle for masculinity and femininity. At some point in the episode an extremely creepy or for some a really funny moment occurrs, when people would literally just go crazy. Getting destroyed over the fact of a man trying to be better. The delivery was impressive. It wasn't a bad episode but bad enough when compared to many of the others.

7. Six Degrees of Freedom

I was looking forward to this episode a lot, as it was the only episode of this season, occurring in space. It lot of the inspiration came from the "Monsters are Due on Maple Street", but in quite a reverse way. I thought this episode was good, for the most of the story. But the point where we went insane was a powerful moment and shows you how smaller and confined spaces can drive a whole genius level intelects in mad brains. Close-up shots were used a lot in tjis episode and I liked that. It allows you to empathize with them even more. Issue with it was, the ending. You get a feeling about this mission, that it is destined for failure . However, the end result was a success or not. But it was the impact of it - not really did something. Maybe it was necessary to achieve but I did like the episode overall.

6. The Traveler

You'd be extremely fond of the cast in this episode. Steven Yeun fitted very good in his role. The most exciting part is the premise of a being, who can literally travel through dimensions, and believes that they can pull things off in the area better than what the humans could. The effect of the story revolves around lies and the power of them, is very entertaining on screen. You never know what The Traveler would say or do; the detrimental effects, that what he said would have. Again, it has a long run time of 50 minutes. But, it was totally worth it. As the ending offered a second guessing, what would happen to the whole of the episode and The Traveler himself, if it was a real character.

5. The Blue Scorpion

This episode of the things around a door to the point that the unit was destined to kill him. However is the story unfolding the twist in the tale is the name on the bully? What's the weather and it was all filled up in his mind. I thought this episode was executed very well impressed with the delivery of shot and the story that it had to tell.

4. Nightmare at 30000 feet

Many of us viewers would have known what they started telling of the original episode 20000 theme but with a different story. If I'm being honest, it didn't stop the original but it was the fact that there was a podcast talking about the crushing of a plane for actions carried out by sports character was the original window the character. Joe was a highlight in this episode for me at the plane was not only witness but powerful with the screen glitching of knowing that there was no other way out, but it did feel a little overall. It was a great watch and you're left wondering about the mystery of the flight.

3. Replay

Coming in at number 3 on this list is the third episode that we were given a great idea that you have the power to be able to replay from time with a video of the past. You keep always watching the whole episode and always wondering how it would unfold. The mother was feeling when she was in fear and on the Run performance was excellent as well with something that I didn't expect and it helped me get even better by the whole cast was extremely good and it's an episode that I would 100% recommend.

2. The Comedian

The first episode title the comedian the first episode did really allow The Twilight Zone to feel like what it used to do it delivered multi-story with sci-fi elements within a 80 of not forcing a message upon me and it was just pure entertainment with a twist that gave me goosebumps and loved every episode of the most seasoned and finally disappeared. It was amazing to watch the development of not only his character, but the plot was well Thought Out definitely.

1. The Blurryman

The best episode in the reboot of The Twilight Zone is the final episode that aired titled Blurryman. Throughout the whole season it was Art vs Entertainment with the volume of the messages. But last episode shows the effect it can have on a story that doesn't take itself too seriously. Jordan Peele is breaking the fourth wall but not in that Rod Serling sort of way, no! Its way meta than that. You could feel relaxed when watching it, despite the fact of its mysterious walk through ba dangerous forest. It was chilling at the end when the incredible creator of all time in the television world Rod Serling is revealed to be the title Blurryman character. Traching society the value of being able to open your eyes to your mind what lies within the story that is told and understand the true meaning of the art that we readand watch. It's a fantastic ending to the saga of the First season itself.
So there you have it. The ranking of the episodes I think you should binge out the reboot of The Twilight Zone.
