I didn't explain it. Both are cases where the intro or theme song says the 
word «dimension» several times, and as if it were some kind of destination 
to travel to (a typical new-agey use of the word).

As you can hear, some translations of Twilight Zone were quite liberal.

The other one is a TV show for kids that ran on SRC station in QC (Canada) 
in 1983-1985. There was no translation of it. I don't actually recall this 
particular (portion of) episode at all. I only remember that there was an 
episode that was about a customs office relying on a buggy face 
recognition device, and another episode that talked about a possibly 
lethal case of video game addiction. The overall plot of the series was 
that the characters were trapped in a virtual reality system as if they 
had been shrunk into the computer. No matter which world they zapped to, 
they kept meeting the same weird guy who was an android working for the 
system, each time in a different job and a different suit. Imagine what 
happened if Kafka had designed TRON so that it looked like The Sims... 
maybe.
