[Editor’s Note: The following article contains spoilers from “The Twilight Zone” Season 1, Episode 6, “Six Degrees of Freedom.”]
Original “Twilight Zone” creator Rod Serling was so fascinated by the possibility of space and aliens that his very first space-adjacent episode aired two years before the first man even escaped Earth’s atmosphere. Now, Jordan Peele’s revival of the series carries on that storytelling tradition with the episode “Six Degrees of Freedom,” in which five astronauts blast off to colonize Mars.
DeWanda Wise, best known for starring in Spike Lee’s Netflix series “She’s Gotta Have It,” is a longtime fan of “Twilight Zone” and had even asked her agents specifically if she would be able to land the show. Her favorite episode is “To Serve Man,” the classic entry in which seemingly benevolent aliens land on Earth, improve the lives of humans, and then are revealed to actually eat the people they were helping.

That was thanks to the perfectly timed TV spot that made it look like CBS was melting down, and Jordan Peele suddenly appeared out of nowhere in a stadium that only has himself.
Jordan went on to talk about different dimensions, and how things can be changed at the drop of a hat.

“The Twilight Zone” fans got a first taste of what the series’ reboot under Jordan Peele will be like during the Super Bowl, when CBS’ telecast appeared to be glitch out, only for viewers to enter the Twilight Zone.
The spot begins with an outside view of the stadium as an announcer narrates, but the screen cuts to text that reads, “CBS is off the air.” Attendees blink out of existence as the screen switches to the interior of the stadium. A soda cup falls to the ground, then disappears.
“Witness an empty space,” intones Peele as the camera zooms in on his feet walking across the field, “filled with thousands of screaming people. A man, both no where and everywhere at the same time.”
“Answers are new questions,” he continues. “The unthinkable is the expected. When truth is not the truth, what dimension are you even in?” Peele asks...
