Given how sometimes my cable system DVR fails to accurately identify which episode of a particular program I have schedule to record (or have recorded), I lean toward erroneous blurb (possibly a good band name).

The introductory comments on the site for Season 1 reads as follows: "This anthology collection of the legendary science-fiction series includes 17 of the original 36 episodes, featuring such classic favorites as "The After-Hours," in which mannequins haunt a department store shopper. You'll also find "Time Enough at Last," about the lone survivor of a nuclear blast, as well as spy appearances by Hollywood greats such as Ida Lupino, Ed Wynn, Burgess Meredith, Jack Klugman and more." Yet, it appears that there are 36 episodes listed below, each with a "play" button. Am I going to find that 19 of these 36 episodes really don't instant play? The fact that it says "spy" appearances instead of what I assume they mean "special" appearances does not inspire confidence in the accuracy of this blurb. Netflix also has Twilight Zone "Volume 1" (and many other volumes), available on disk only. These appear to be 75 minutes long, but do not detail the content, but I assume each volume contains 3 episodes? The "volumes" are only available on disk, and the "seasons" are only available for streaming. But why would I want to have the disks of the volumes mailed to me when I can watch the actual seasons online? I guess the disks must have some special features. Are these worth viewing? -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People! You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TV or Not TV" group.
