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.
