Keep in mind, this is Rod Serling’s time of year. The beloved writer and anthology television visionary was born on Christmas Day, into this dimension, on 1924. Christmas and New Years Day are special days in The Twilight Zone, so let his closing words from “Night of Meek” carry you into a joyous and giving holiday season:
“A word to the wise, to all the children of the twentieth century, whether their concern be pediatrics or geriatrics, whether they crawl on hands and knees and wear diapers, or walk with a cane and comb their beards. There’s a wondrous magic to Christmas, and there’s a special power reserved for little people. In short, there’s nothing mightier than the meek. And a Merry Christmas to each and all.”
