Review of The Parallel

The Twilight Zone: The Parallel (1963)
Season 4, Episode 11
Almost a classic
4 June 2008
Warning: Spoilers
This is one of the better season 4 (50 minutes) episodes.The Parallel is about an astronaut coming back from a space mission to find,as the title suggests, that although things seem normal at first,he starts to notice minor details of his life are different ie a fence around his house,hes a major instead of a colonel etc.Gradually his family start to act uneasily around him.Not the most exciting twilight zone but a very interesting idea that has been copied since by many sci fi films and shows.The actors put in good performances and the atmospheric feel of the show is well done.Just one minor detail that didn't ring true was that the President was different(hardly minor).
