The original format featured five-part dramas broadcast Monday through Friday with the story coming to a conclusion on Friday. Including commercials, each part was approximately 30 minutes long.

Rod Serling! Need I say More?

These are really great radio dramas from the 1970’s.
I was googling some Twilight Zone information and found that Rod Serling had done 2 Seasons of a Radio Show after finishing NIGHT GALLERY.
I loved both of his TV Shows and also Old Time Radio so I gave this a listen. This is terrific if you liked Suspense or The CBS Mystery Theatre Radio Shows. As a kid, I would listen on my AM/FM Radio at bedtime and scare myself.
