People remember the twist endings, but the best Twilight Zone episodes had revelations rather than rug pulls. It wasn’t afraid to re-address familiar concepts with greater brevity. A personal favourite is “Mr. Denton On Doomsday” which is an off-beat counterpart to the classic Western “The Gunfighter” which itself was an anti-Western and a work of streamlined genius. Rod Serling somehow tightened it up and made it more magical.

You could see where it was going, but getting there was lovely.
