In the mid to late 80's (I believe) there was an anthology series on for a short time (I believe it bombed) that was sort of like Night Gallery. There was a big name attached to it (Speilberg maybe?). The first episode was about a reporter doing a story on death row inmates, but only one person knew that the reporter was working undercover. The reporter was trying to do a "first person" look at the prison system, but ended up going to the electric chair. The story ended withthe reporter seeing the switch thrown to electricute him. Then the guards told him that they were in on his story, but went that far to make his reporting as realistic as possible. However, the reporter panicked so much at the thought of dying, his mind snapped, leaving him a "vegetable".
A very "EC Comics" type ending. Anyone remember this?
