Genre of episode that has kind of disappeared in modern Star Trek:

It's like a premise that could be a Twilight Zone episode, but it's just set in the 24th century

E.g. TNG's Cause and Effect could have been a Twilight Zone episode ("What if your déjà vu was real?"; it was arguably an homage to Twilight Zone's "Twenty two")

@researchfairy Is this due to the shift away from episodic Trek to serialization?
