If you'd like to hear new readings of familiar stories, you should check out the TZ Radio Dramas. I'm mentioning this today because there are at least two opportunities to listen to them on Saturdays/early Sundays:
1. The Internet service Yesterday USA Radio broadcasts them every Saturday 6:00-7:00 PM Eastern. Go to http://yesterdayusa.com for the home page to establish the type of streaming that works for you. The one I've chosen is
http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/mini.cgi?me...m=1088287271730
You might want to try this first, since as I've bookmarked it I go directly to streaming, but I forget whether this was dependent on an initial setup. In any case, I suggest finding a stream in advance (Yesterday USA airs continuously) and either bookmarking it or keeping a record of how you got there.
2. WGN (720 AM and wgnradio.com) in Chicago broadcasts them every Sunday morning (what is often called late Saturday/early Sunday) 1:05-2:00 AM Eastern. (That's 12:05-1:00 AM Central, the station's time zone). WGN is a clear channel with a powerful nighttime signal, but it's even clearer on the Internet. A direct link to the stream is http://wgnradio.com/listen/liveWGN.ram , although I make the same recommendation as above in trying it out first to make sure you get it working. In particular, you'll need the free version of RealPlayer, which can be downloaded easily.
There are stations all over the US that carry the series at different times. http://twilightzoneradio.com tells you all you need to know about the series, including the stations that carry them and at what times. Some of these stations provide Internet streaming, but there must be some intricacies with broadcast rights of the series. For example, the stream of KSL in Salt Lake City goes silent when TZ should air.
I'd be interested to learn how successful people are in finding a way to listen and, if you do, your opinions of the series. Also, please let us know whether you find any streams besides the two I've given.
All episodes are remakes of those from the original series. They remain faithful to the original scripts except when visual action has to be translated into dialogue. Virtually all of the musical cues come from the original series, although usually from different episodes.
