I own the complete DVD set and have watched them all several, dozens of time..This episode remains one of my all-time favorites..The writing, statements (both literal and social), and turnabout ending were all classic Rod
I find it amazing how prophetic Science Fiction is. All we have to do is look at our country today and wonder how long until you are in front of a panel (read Kangaroo Court) to determine if you are Obsolete. How far we have fallen in just the time that this show was filmed to now.
I voted for Obama and imglad he won. And making any human obsolete whether you agree with them are not is communist at best.it is disgusting and ridiculous.
yup..all of this is to come..thats why we must get ready and put all of our amour on so that we are able to stand up against the devil and fight for the Lord.. thank God for Jesus my Savior..Thank God for being baptised in Jesus name..God bless going down in the water in Jesus name! i am SAVED...
@jesus7es7dios7 Well I pray every night for: Those who have been abducted that they may be returned home and their perpetrators be brought to justice. That God touches those who are suffering in body,mind and spirit and make them whole again. I pray for our troops stationed through-out the world. I pray for the health, Safety and well-being of the Tea Party.
@ErichH68 obama will be kick out of office the real evil have consider him obsolete this could happen but after obama obama can't any thing like this he has no power
The scary part of this whole episode is that this is what Hitler and the Nazi's really did to any forms of communication and did tons of book burning. Very frightning. Brilliantly performed by all.
Never saw this episode and I've watched TZ for 35 years when it's been on. Pretty amazing but they did make a lot of them so not too surprising. Or maybe the leftist run TV stations were not overjoyed to air this episode too often and focused instead on those that had a more touchy , feely storyline. I say the leftist thing because of the Judge saying "there is no God and it's been proven", that is straight out of the Cultural Revolution of Mao (this show was made before that happenned). Thanks!
@olstar18 Obama fascist? Ha! I don't even like Obama, and that sounds rediculous. Obama may not be are greatest persident, but he's definately not evil.
this is an overt example of what the overall agenda is!!!do yall not see the remnant of this episode in todays state/government? THIS IS NOT A COINCIDENCE!!!!!!
Alright this could of been really really really good. And it's pretty good, but it's over acted.

Wow. I mean, the judge is pretty eloquent for someone who doesn't read. Maybe they don't need books in the future after all.
Seriously though, good episode.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
The judge at the top of the truncated pyramid is another Zionist false jew, a descendant of the satanic Khazars suns of Gog & Magog.
We will soon see things like that in our society, in fact it is already there.
FUCK SATAN and it's Zionist pyramid.
