This week, we're taking a look at the Twilight Zone episode "A Nice Place to Visit." It's quite a classic Twilight Zone episode with one of the more commonly memorable twist endings. It's the story about a man named Rocky Valentine, a guide named Mr. Pip, and a certain place that will remain mysterious for the time being. We'll discuss what it is about this place that makes it so perfect for Rocky Valentine; we'll talk a bit about beauty standards and the need for the unideal; and I'll reveal my moment of awe. So, grab your keys, and let's unlock this door to the fifth dimension. As always, spoiler alert. If you have note seen the episode, go check it out and then come back here for the analysis. We're walking through Rod Serling's class Twilight Zone series and asking difficult questions about life.
