The Twilight Zone

[GlennCase]

I am referring to the original series that debuted in 1959, and not the attempts to revive the show in the 80's and 2002.

I have been watching the episodes in the order of their air dates, and I've gotten a little over 2/3 through season one so far. This show still holds up as some of the most brilliant, fascinating and thought provoking television I have ever watched. That's fairly impressive for a show that's nearly 50 years old.

ROCK!

These were great shows. I also liked the 80's version, well, that was when I was growing up. Mmm, that theme music is awesome. Anyway, are you watching on DVD?

Anyway, are you watching on DVD?

I'd like to get the definitive editions on DVD, but I am primarily finding them on YouTube and cross referencing an episode guide for now.

ROCK!

"Room for one more, Honey!"

I love that one - it looks weird cause it was shot on video. Have you gotten to that one yet?

whenever they run those Twilight Zone marathons on tv i always watch a bunch... i love that show. I like all the rip-off shows as well like tales from the darkside, monsters, etc...

I got through season one and I am just starting season two, but I broke sequence to watch this one ("Twenty Two") and Niv's suggestion ("Five characters in search of an exit"). Great choices, guys! They are both fantastic episodes. I went ahead and caught "To Serve Man" and "A Most Unusual Camera" while I was at it.

I think my favorite first season episodes would have to be as follows:

1. "What You Need" (12/25/59)
2. "A World Of His Own" (7/1/60)
3. "The Last Flight" (2/5/60)
4. "Time Enough at Last" (11/20/59)
5. "And When The Sky Was Opened" (12/11/59)

Again, I recommend this magnificent episode guide if the titles don't ring a bell. You know, like the bell that plays into the story of "Five Characters in Search of an Exit!"

I love this show.

ROCK!

Even Richard Matheson's crap was solid gold.

"The Obsolete Man" is my favorite episode.

The Sci-Fi channel used to give me reasons to love the 4th of July...back when I had cable.
