like a great many twilight zone episode and one of my favorite part of this one be the overt social commentary that serling be make with the story . a be the case with a recent episode the howling man and i be remind of my long standing suspicion that and for example and if jesus be to come to earth to bring his follower to heaven and he would be immediately judge insane and probably throw into an asylum . our main character in this episode meet a similar problem when try to convince the 1860s american that he be from the future and the president lincoln be about to be assassinate . the episode wrongly assert that this mean that some part of the past can be change while others can not and but it a fun time travel romp nonetheless . grant and we do not know for a fact whether history could be change by time travel and because time travel have never be accomplish and and sadly and never will be . but it seem logical to me that and if you could physically place yourself in a time of the past and you could physically prevent something from happen and as long a you do not flail around like a lunatic yelling about assassination . one of the consistently interesting thing about time travel film and tv show and in my opinion and be the method by which the time travel take place . there be really no method at all here and our main character be have a conversation about time travel at a posh gentleman club and then walk outside and into a dissolve from the early 1960s to the mid 1860s and but no matter . the twilight zone have thus far not strike me for it complex set or high production value . russell johnson play the part of peter corrigan and the time traveller and and upon discover that he have be somehow transport back to the exact day of lincoln assassination and he manage to get himself throw in prison and but luckily for him john wilkes booth and for some reason and just happen to be hang out at the police station and overheard the frantic corrigan desperately try to describe the very assassination that booth be plan for that night . booth request custody of corrigan for some psychiatric experimentation and and the police officer see nothing wrong with relinquish custody to this guy . he have a business card and after all and how bad could he be . the show seem to suggest that you can change people life by slightly alter event in the past through time travel and and while i be not willing to accept that time travel would include such limitation and it still a fun episode that really make you think and which be one of my favorite quality of the good twilight zone show .
