It's a cookbook!: Zoning in on a year-end holiday.

2018 is coming to a close and today it feels like we live in the Twilight Zone. Here's our favorite show from a past era   -- before social media, video games, Wall Street greed and talk radio ruined so much.

SYFY’s annual Twilight Zone Marathon will kick off December 30th at midnight and will run until the morning of January 2nd. The schedule, with our top picks in bold:
