Densham Revisits The Twilight Zone
Pen Densham told SCI FI Wire that he's eager to start production on UPN's new
version of The Twilight Zone, for which he's writing and serving as executive
producer. "I love the idea that one could create an anthology series for
television in a time when everybody thinks anthology shows won't work,"
Densham said in an interview. The former producer of Showtime and the SCI FI
Channel's updated The Outer Limits series noted that "The Twilight Zone is
probably an even more extraordinary franchise than The Outer Limits because
it allows you to get into the psychology of human beings."
Densham added, "You can do a story about a dream girl who's actually real.
You can do stories about things that are comic or spiritual, and they're
valid to the storytelling. The Twilight Zone is the kind of show you dream
about because most people, when they create a show, end up being somewhat
trapped by having to repeat the same characters every week and having to work
within that schematic. The opportunity of something like The Twilight Zone is
that you can do an entirely different show every week. You're challenging
your imagination, you're staying fresh and you're breaking new ground all the
time. There's also a heritage I recognize and value. The Twilight Zone is one
of the treasured and hallowed pieces of American culture."
The Twilight Zone will debut this fall, following Enterprise on the
Wednesday-night schedule.
