Good performances and all, but the ending is one that shows up on lists of overused sci-fi story devices. It was something like 30 years ago that I recall a sci-fi editor complaining that he had endless submissions about a couple finding themselves the only people on the planet, and then the big reveal at the end was, "And their names were Adam and Eve."
It's been a cliché for a while, but somewhere back in time, somebody wrote a story like that for the first time. If I give Serling the benefit of the doubt, maybe he was the first to turn that particular Bible story into a sci-fi tale.
