The Twilight Zone Radio Dramas is a nationally
syndicated radio series featuring adaptations of the classic television series
The Twilight Zone, launched in October 2002. Many of the stories are based on
Rod Serling's scripts from the original
Twilight Zone series, and are slightly expanded and updated to reflect contemporary technology and trends (e.g., the mention of "
cell phones" and "
CD-ROMs" which, of course, weren't around when the television show aired in the 1960s). Taking Serling's role as narrator is
Stacy Keach. A different
Hollywood actor, such as
Blair Underwood and
James Caviezel, take the lead role in each radio drama. In addition, several stars who appeared on the original TV series, such as
H.M. Wynant,
Orson Bean and
Morgan Brittany, appear, although purposely not in the roles they originated on television. The series features a full cast, music and sound effects and is produced in the flavor of classic radio dramas but using today's state-of-the-art digital technology.
