On this week’s show we talk about the Twilight Zone’s oft overlooked younger brother, Night Gallery. We talk about the shows creator, Rod Serling, the controversies around the show’s production and syndication, the music and the shows ever-changing format. Jonathan is back with a Halloween tinged Retro Rewind and metagirl is back with a great new Top 5 List. Just a reminder to drop by our official forums to discuss Night Gallery.

What is the piece of music used as the bumper going into the show? It sounds ultra loungey yet very noirish.
