"The Twilight Zone" comes from CBS Television Studios in association with Monkeypaw Productions and Genre Films. Peele and Simon Kinberg are executive producing alongside Win Rosenfeld, Audrey Chon, Carol Serling, Rick Berg, and Greg Yaitanes.
The first two episodes hits CBS All Access on Monday, April 1, and subsequent episodes will arrive weekly on Thursdays, starting April 11. You'll have to be a CBS All Access subscriber to watch.
