KOI: A Twilight Zone Show - The Chaser #31

In this week's Twilight Zone episode, we take a look at "The Chaser." This is, in many ways, a typical deal-with-the-devil kind of story--with a few subtle differences. Roger Shackleforth is a man in love, and he's going to do whatever it takes to win the affections of the enchanting Leila. However, as is the case many times in life, be careful what you wish for--or in this case, what you buy in a shady library from a cantankerous professor. (As an at-times cantankerous professor, I know the types. =). In this KOI episode, we're going to discuss what "The Chaser" is trying to say about love and emotions; we'll dive into what makes Professor A. Daemon unique from figures like Mephistopheles from Faust; and I'll reveal my moment of awe. So, grab your keys, and let's unlock this door to the fifth dimension. As always, spoiler alert. If you have note seen the episode, go check it out and then come back here for the analysis. We're walking through Rod Serling's class Twilight Zone series and asking difficult questions about life. So, if you love The Twilight Zone, science fiction, or even just philosophizing about life, consider joining us on this journey. There's always room for more.
