Revivals and reboots have been incredibly popular lately, but revivals of classic TV shows have been around for decades. The Twilight Zone is one of the most popular TV shows of all-time, and there have been multiple attempts to revive the show, including Jordan Peele's current adaptation of the series.

Each revival had some well-crafted episodes, and some did not, but no revival matched the original series as closely as the first revival in the 1980s. Soon after 1983's The Twilight Zone: The Movie, this revival TV series was put into development. Many well-made episodes aired during the show's airtime, mixing Rod Serling-like commentary with Steven Spielberg-like feel and direction. Here are some of the very best segments of this revival that are just as good as many episodes of Rod Serling's original masterpiece.

"A Little Peace And Quiet" (Season 1, Episode 1)

This story was presented in the very first episode of the revival, and it starts the series on a very high note. It involves an overworked housewife discovering a mysterious object that allows her to freeze time, and she gets caught up in enjoying the silence.

Directed by Wes Craven, known for classic horror films such as A Nightmare On Elm Street and Screamthis episode was extremely well shot, and the tragic ending is just as horrifying as any classic episode of the original series.

"Nightcrawlers" (Season 1, Episode 4)
