5. The Twilight Zone (The 80's Revival)

We’re never sure which version of this iconic series to highlight, with the clumsy satire of 2019’s revival being regrettably overrated and the original’s extraordinary writing deserving the outsized acclaim which is frequently heaped upon it by retrospective reviews, but the two iterations in between often vying for our limited attention.

For our money though, the eighties revival of Rod Serling's iconic anthology series remains its most underrated version of this franchise. Featuring episodes helmed by the likes of Gremlins director Joe Dante, this darkly funny and often inventive version of the show deserves to be rediscovered by any fans of the enduringly popular franchise who have given it a miss until now.
