Why Rod Serling’s The Loner is a “work in progress”

TVC 668.6: Joseph Dougherty, author of Rod Serling at 100, talks to Ed about “Dust,” “Mr. Denton on Doomsday,” “Mr. Garrity and the Graves,” and other Western-themed episodes of The Twilight Zone, and how Rod Serling’s disenchantment with the television can be traced with the network interference he faced during the production of The Loner (CBS, 1965-1966), the existentialist Western starring Lloyd Bridges that, though set in post-Civil War America circa 1865, really served as Serling’s commentary for the divided nature of America in 1965. Rod Serling at 100 is available from Fayetteville Mafia Press.
