I read a few news items, all of which seemed to contain the same content regarding this development. Unfortunately, not much was said. As a 'fan' of the original series, I welcome this reboot, & hope it does not collapse into silliness as did the original series.
I thought the 1st season was far more dramatic than its successors, which had only a few episodes not riddled with childish silliness. Its being in gray scale also added to it creepiness factor, likewise The Outer Limits, & The Twilight Zone. I was born late in '58, so I doubt if I ever saw the show during its original run; though I have a memory of it seeming to be a part of my childhood. I remember arguing with my mother about since I had just turned 9, I should be allowed to stay up until 9PM.
