Coda Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 My favorite is 'Will the real martian Please Stand up?' "You've heard of finding the proverbial needle in a haystack? Well, your job is even harder, You've got to find a Martian in a diner" Ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vital signz Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 How about "Over and Out"---the one where a man crashes on a planet in a spaceship and in in a forest, which is beautiful. He cannot fix his spaceship and transmits communications to that effect. He starts to uncover his surroundings looking for things to help him survive. He realizes it will be a lonely, lonely future. Then he hears something. As I recall he finds a woman in the forest. She is also stranded there alone. They do not speak the same language. But then they tell each other their names and he says "Adam" and she says "Eve".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In A Tidewater Surge Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 QUOTE (Your_Lion @ Jan 4 2010, 10:19 AM) Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up - Which character is really an alien? ( Beneath his hat the strangeness lies Take it off, he's got three eyes ) This is probably my favorite episode so far.

Your_Lion Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 QUOTE (In A Tidewater Surge @ Dec 10 2010, 08:24 AM) And hurray for reviving a long dead thread Wow! That's a real coincidence that you revived this thread today. I just watched a couple of episodes last night, and I only just ordered the third season boxset about ten minutes ago. creepy, huh? "There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeOhBe Bob Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 you got em all already.... Was it George C Scott as the retiree that went to Vegas because wifey won a radio contest got a single chip, put it in the slot machine and was obsessed with it when it "stole" his money...the thing even came to visit them in their room and the ep where there was a colony on a planet and I think it was James Whitmore who'd ran the show on this godforsaken planet, a rescue ship came for them after many years, and he was the only one left behind?

Principled Man Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 "A Nice Place To Visit" 3rd-rate criminal Rocky Valentine is killed during a robbery and wakes up in the Afterlife. His guide, Pip, takes him to a wonderful hotel (Heaven?) where all his dreams come true. He gets whatever he wants, whenever he wants....over and over again....all day long.....without end. The subtle evilness of the episode is brilliant..... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/d9/A_Nice_Place_to_Visit.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and I think they're pretty good. But then, as a fan of old Doctor Who, I'm used to the look of tape. There are 6 in total, all from the 2nd season. The Lateness of the Hour http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/00/The_Lateness_of_the_Hour.jpg An atmospheric episode, and a good one, even though the "twist" is pretty obvious. Night of the Meek http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/50/Night_of_the_Meek.jpg A Christmas episode, and a very heartwarming one...I think I'll watch it tonight. The Whole Truth http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c5/The_Whole_Truth.jpg One of the "comedy" episodes, the story of a used-car salesman who can't lie. Twenty Two http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e7/TwentyTwoMorgue.jpg An episode about a recurring nightmare. Nice and creepy. Static http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/7b/Static_%28The_Twilight_Zone%29.jpg A good central performance in this story about a paranormal radio. Long Distance Call http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/25/Long_Distance_Call.jpg Probably my favourite of the six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always loved Serling's et.al. take on time travel! I love that plastic surgery one. But my favorite has to be "A Kind of a Stopwatch" Below is the synopsis with spoiler (from Wikipedia) Patrick Thomas McNulty is an obnoxious, talkative and unpopular know-it-all. At the local bar after being fired, an odd man named Potts gives him a stopwatch, "an old family heirloom". Thinking it an odd gift, McNulty soon realizes that stopping the watch stops time itself. Excited with his new toy, he tries to win back his job. Unsuccessful, he soon thinks of another use: robbing banks. But he drops the watch and it breaks, leaving everyone and everything around him forever frozen in time. With no one to talk to or interact with, we last see him in a panic: "Somebody move! TALK!! Say something!!! HELP!!!!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good,bad,andrush Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I love the Twilight Zone! I really like button! button!. (As well as the recent remake "The Box." I may be the only person in the world who enjoyed that film.) And I really like the bookworm one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanaceaFish Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 For those of you who have the Sci-Fi channel, they are airing their traditional Twilight Zone NYE Marathon...The current ep is "The Last Flight", in which a pilot lands his 1917 biplane at a modern French base.

GeddyRulz Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 The New Years TZ marathon is still going. I looked at the episodes ahead, and it appears the really good stuff comes on at 10 PM tonight (Saturday) and runs until after midnight. It's funny how they jump around in sequence and give you a lot of bad episodes in a row before giving you a gem (or gems). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyRulz Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) 9:30 - 10:00. "Time Enough at Last" just ended. Poor Burgess Meredith as the man who just wants more free time to read, finally gets it after an apocalypse, and then his glasses break.... so for the rest of his life he cannot read. 10:00. "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet," with Bill Shatner as the guy recovering from a nervous breakdown who sees a creature on the wing of the airplane, sabotaging it, but can't convince anybody he's not just imagining things. 10:30. "Living Doll." I think this is the episode where "Talky Tina" keeps speaking to Telly Savalas, scaring the beejesus out of him. 11:00. "A Stop at Willoughby." One of Serling's many personal stories, about an overworked businessman whose train stops in an idyllic, restful fantasy town. But if he disenbarks, can he go back to the real world? 11:30. "The Obsolete Man." Burgess Meredith again, this time as a condemned man planning his own execution. 12:00. "The After Hours." A woman visits a department store's non-existent 18th floor after closing. 1:30. "Mirror Image." Vera Miles is a woman who sees her double in a bus terminal... but does anyone else see her? 4:30. "Nothing in the Dark." A reclusive old woman who fears the reaper opens her door to Robert Redford, a wounded soldier who may be a gentle angel of death.
