THAT version of the Outer Limits was a rip off of The Twilight Zone. This version
was rehashed and brought back to TV when X-files demonstrated the marketability of
such a genre. (There was also a short lived rehashing of the Twilight Zone a few
years ago). IMHO, there's little worse in TV than to be the rehashing of one ripoff
show in order to rip off another show....
