'', each episode of the series contains two short half-hour stories, that have a twist ending. Also present in each episode is a link or connection between the two tales. Rather than draw on a pool of experienced writers, the producers of the series issued a call to up-and-coming writers to submit screenplays. Some 2,400 entries were received and from these, 14 finalists were chosen. Directors were chosen in a similar fashion. A mix of experienced and emerging directors were chosen to shoot each episode. Each episode was shot over a period of four days with each director given another four days to edit.

Episode Pair Links

In each pair of episodes in Two Twisted, there is a link between them (Like an object or a name that's in both episode). Here are the links in each pair of episodes: * ''There's Something About Kyanna'' & ''Finding Frank'' ** Mid way into the first episode, the camera moves over a book titled Trespassers. ** About the same way through the second episode, the main character Frank, looks at a picture. Behind it is the same book, Trespassers. * ''Call Back'' & ''Heart Attack'' ** Toward the end of the first episode, an ambulance blocks the road as it tends to a fallen bicyclist. ** In the second, the lead male suffers a heart attack while on his bike, the same model seen in the previous episode. * ''Von Stauffenberg's Stamp'' & ''A Date With Doctor D'' ** In the middle of the first episode, an offer was made to buy the barbershop. ** In the second, Rolly broke a coffee cup that had underneath it a corporate proposal to buy the barbershop in the first episode. * ''Soft Boiled Luck'' & ''Arkham's Curios and Wonders'' ** Near the start of the first episode, a red cube puzzle is used as "a cognitive test for the shrinks, part of the psych report". ** In the second, the puzzle is seen in Vincent's bedroom, on a shelf, beside a plasma ball. The puzzle is never shown in clear focus during the episode, but is seen in the "Rik Bitta" segment for the week. * ''A Flash Exclusive'' & ''Delivery Man'' ** Man and Van which visits the first woman to deliver groceries are the same ones in the next episode. *''Jailbreak'' & ''Saviour'' **In the start of the first episode, the doctor is stitching up a man as Jenkins walks in. **This same man is the immortal man in the second episode. *''Love Crimes'' & ''Grand Final'' **In the start of the episode, Vince Colosimo's character sees a note on the fridge from 'Mason', stating that he will be late at basketball training. **In the second episode, Dan's friend is called Mase (obviously short for Mason), and plays basketball, so it's the same boy.
