Title: Twilight Zone
Post by: Samus Aran on October 30, 2010, 03:27:24 PM
So, I don't really watch much TV, but one show that always captivated me was The Twilight Zone. I used to watch it on the Sci-Fi channel sometimes. Just in the past couple days, I've sort of re-discovered the joy of watching this show.

So, anyone here have a favorite episode of Twilight Zone?

I'd have to go with "Walking Distance" or "The Long Morrow." Other runner-ups include "A Game of Pool" and "The Masks." And of course there's "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge," but that's not a real episode so much as a short film that was purchased and then aired as a TZ episode.

And dear god don't pick anything from after the original five seasons from 1959 to 1964.

I LOVE THE TWILIGHT ZONE

I can't remember the titles of my two favorites...but they're the ones when
[spoiler= Fave #1]The guy hides in the safe to read and survives the atomic blast...so he's free to read forever but his glasses fall and get smashed. :'([/spoiler]
[spoiler=Fave #2]The mannequins at the mall all come to life and start chasing after the woman but it turns out she had the chance to be human and it was someone else's turn. [/spoiler]

I only remember two. One was about a head in a jar or something. The other was about wishes. The old be careful what you wish for.

If it's the one of the couple owning the antique shop who discovers a genie in a bottle, and the wishes end up having consequences (like heavy taxes on money, or becoming Hitler for power), then...that one is called "The Man in the Bottle" and it was actually on Syfy last night.

I absolutely loved it when I was younger. I didn't have cable or anything and I'd have to go over to my grandparents to see it.

It's been a while. The last one I saw was the one where all the power gets shut off to that one street and everyone goes apeshit and starts blaming each other and it turns out it was just a big sociological experiment.

I always thought the show was hilarious.

My favorite is the one where bigfoot is ripping stuff off of the wing of a plane and some crazy guy is watching him and no one believes him but it turns out he was right and it's like woaawoaaahwoawhao

It was one about a son who died and they wished him back to life. If I remember right they were Scottish or British and farmers.

DAMN IT I MISSED IT.   akudood;
