You Can Now Watch the First Episode of Jordan Peele’s Twilight Zone for Free

The first episode of Jordan Peele’s new Twilight Zone is available on YouTube. Starring Kumail Nanjiani and Tracy Morgan, “The Comedian” is about the way art can parasitize the artist’s real life. If you can get through the pain of seeing Kumail bomb, you’ll be treated to a carefully paced and thoughtful meditation on what performers have to sacrifice in order to succeed, especially in today’s social-media–sphere where one is expected to cannibalize one’s entire life for likes. The rest of Peele’s world of spooky political allegories are still behind the CBS All Access paywall.
