Yeah, some of the Fx stand the test of time don't they? Shocking given that this was made in the early 60s.
And because it was made in the early 60s it certainly has the most moralistic bent to it, and for a series like The Twilight Zone, it works and it sets it apart from all the revivals made to date.
Sure, yeah, the 2019 has a "moralistic" side as well, certainly more than the 80s and 00s revivals, but the 2019 morals are more... propagandist, more hateful.
This version, the morals are about individual virtue, about loyalty and courage and wisdom and not about... well, not about par...
