From 2002 to 2018 there was a syndicated radio version/adaption of “The Twilight Zone,” the legendary series created by Rod Serling, with Stacy Keach as the narrator.
In addition to adapting most of the original 50s-60s episodes of the original “Twilight Zone” as hour-long (well, about 35 minute) radio shows with commercials, the series aired 21 episodes written or adapted for the radio show. Some of them had been planned for the original series but never used.
So, here’s an unofficial guide to the episodes.
Most of this fine series’ adaptions were done by the late Dennis Etchison, himself a fine author of horror and fantasy who had actually taken a class from TZ writer Charles Beaumont. The show aired its last episode in 2018 after 18 seasons and Etchison died the next year. Maybe that’s why the radio series ceased production. Too bad! A lot of the originals were wonderful!
Here then an unofficial list, compiled from Wikipedia and Reddit.
