A CBS All Access exclusive, The Twilight Zone is a modern reimagining of the TV series of the same name that began airing in 1958. "Jordan Peele and Simon Kinberg's reimagining of The Twilight Zone is off to an amazing start on CBS All Access, driving the most viewers on its premiere day for an original series to date," CBS All Access executive vice president of original content Julie McNamara said in a blog post. "Jordan, Simon, the creative team and cast have done a phenomenal job translating the series' legacy of socially conscious storytelling for modern-day audiences. They are master storytellers, and we look forward to bringing fans further into The Twilight Zone with a second season." Though many of the episodes in Jordan Peele's The Twilight Zone are brand-new stories, a few are reimagined variations of episodes from the original series.

However, even in the brand-new stories, there are plenty of references and call backs to the original The Twilight Zone.

His production company, Monkeypaw, produces the series.
