This episode is one of the best TZ's, and is fascinating in its presentation . Made 50 years ago, before we got all "woke" and neurotic , the characters are presented much more realistically than they would be today. The story is about a 62 year old with a 23 year old gold digging wife . He is very much in love with her, but she treats him like crap. 62's brother is always calling out the chick, pointing out that she is a greedy little tramp using this guy for his money . It's kind of ironic that this is being shown now , in an era where the young writers have never even seen a woman portrayed in this way. If this were made today , the female in the piece would be portrayed as an innocent , possibly illiterate "child" , plucked from security and "groomed " by a perverse predator, (her husband) who actually met her when she was 17 and a half. He would Be the one labeled "predator " and probably be criminally prosecuted, after all his assets and bank accounts had been liquidated and placed in her and her lawyers accounts. At one point in this piece the brother refers to her as a predator, I am suprised this didn't get banned.
The story shows a man willing to be injected with an untested substance that makes mice younger but hasn't been proven in man. He is desperate to be younger to keep up with his Much younger wife . The serum ends up with unusual results , but not so unexpected in , The Twilight Zone.
