Zoned Out: The Twilight Zone Revisited "Once Upon a Time"

Join hosts Freddy Morris and Joe Juvland as they dive into The Twilight Zone classic episode "Once Upon a Time." In this memorable story, comedy legend Buster Keaton stars as Woodrow Mulligan, a janitor living in the year 1890 who is fed up with the noise and chaos of modern life—or at least what he considers modern. When he discovers a time helmet that transports him to 1962, Mulligan is overwhelmed by the bustling world of the future and quickly finds himself in a series of comic misadventures. Freddy and Joe discuss the episode's unique blend of silent film-style comedy and sci-fi storytelling, Rod Serling's clever commentary on nostalgia for the past, and the lasting charm that makes "Once Upon a Time" a standout in The Twilight Zone series.
