@Stirh: sharper and more modern, because the viewer is already corrupted, and it is difficult to surprise him with something. for the 59th year, I think it was just space.
It is incorrect to compare. There is no Mirror without a Zone. Your ability to predict plot twists is a consequence of the fact that SZ 65 years ago taught the viewer to recognize them. As for "sharpness," Rod Serlings created at the nastiest time in the history of American cinema - the 50s. The Hayes Code, McCarthyism, narrow-minded hypocrites. Comics were burned as a product corrupting young people. No sex, no violence, no equality of sexes and races, no politics, no freedom of speech, creativity was stifled as best they could. The New Hollywood is still a long way from the 70s. And the TV was under the yoke of censorship for even longer. Of course, a modern TV series can discuss more acute topics, in the 50s they would have been crucified for such a thing. How De Palma was sharper than Hitchcock, partly because no one would have let Alfred make such explicit films in the 50s and 60s.
This series is one of the most influential and popular in history. From Doctor Who and Scooby-Doo to Scorsese films and Mirrors, his DNA can be found in hundreds of films and TV series regardless of genre. Analogues like One Step Beyond have gone almost unnoticed in the shadow of the NW. The mirror is a direct continuation of the Zone with a techno bias.
And that's why I postponed watching this series? Of course, it doesn't look the same today as it did then, but I really liked it! Definitely continue watching
I really liked the first episode. The retro atmosphere is exactly what makes the series, perhaps, even more interesting now than during the first show. And it is immediately noticeable that modern fiction continues to draw inspiration from such series as the Twilight Zone.
If you are tired of the same faces, the abundance of computer graphics and CVS in modern TV series, then 1959 comes to the rescue) Only fresh faces, natural shots and the issues that worried your grandfather
In general, the opening episode is normal, although until the last I thought that he died, and in the last minutes they will show how everyone is surprised that the clock in the cafe has fallen, doors are slamming, etc. in places where he has been
@tvinpixer: Вот, кстати, полностью с Вами согласна. Смотрела этот сериал очень давно. Мне кажется, что даже еще на кассете, но сейчас села пересматривать заново и поняла, что, видимо, с возрастом воспринимается иначе, как-то по-новому. Раньше, конечно, все казалось страшнее =)

Когда он наткнулся на манекен, то я подумал, что это один из таких специально спроектированных городов, на которых военные в те времена испытывали ядерную бомбу, и в конце серии произойдёт взрыв. Но в итоге получилось даже интересней.
Охренеть как круто! Прям всю серию в напряге! Когда телефон зазвонил, аж мурашки пошли... Я тоже думала, что он умер и не видит людей. Хотя в начале серии предупредили, что серия будет про воображение...
Honestly, I didn't think I'd like it, but I decided to check it out. I saw that it was 1959 and it already became interesting, and then I started watching and the intrigue lasted almost the entire series) I recommend it coolly 👍
It's too long. In fact, the whole series is a one-man show, a big challenge for the actor. The actor coped, was very diligent and implemented all the ideas of the director. And not without talent, to be honest. Decorations, style... Everything is there. The subject of advanced space research. 1959. They haven't actually been there yet. This is equivalent to a flight to Mars, which has not yet taken place. No one knows what's going to happen THERE... but it didn't work out for me. I don't know why. The script is simple, I've seen more. That's probably the reason. /// UPD Earl Holliman, the guy from the Air Force who didn't remember anything, the main character in this series, passed away in November 2024. Thanks for the role, man.
Not bad, 1959, not bad

Странно, но я думал самым первым эпизодом данного сериала будет та серия про гремлина на крыле самолёта, но он аж только в пятом сезоне.
