Brilliant and Thought-Provoking

Highly recommended for fans of Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, Alfred Hitchcock and the like.

I was a little ashamed of myself for laughing throughout the beginning of the story, at how brash the character Flora was with her husband. But I found it equally interesting and amusing the way the authors chose to depict this particular marital concept, as well as the fantastical way they ended the story.

This was my first listen to a Twilight Zone radio episode, and I wasn’t sure whether it would turn out to be to my liking. I loved it. It’s typical Twilight Zone, minus the moving picture.

Mediocre.

Using an untested youth serum might have some consequences, right? Mediocre episode.
Beginning - unlikable. Middle - OK. Ending - predictable.
