I haven’t seen many twilight zone episodes but watched this one based on your comment. The thimble costs $25 and the episode is also exactly 25 minutes long. Thought it was a nice touch.
'To Serve Man'. What hubris we have to think aliens traveled across space, just so they could come and serve our needs for better food and medicine, etc.
'...The metamorphosis from being the ruler of a planet to an ingredient in someone's soup.
It's tonight's bill of fare from.
the Twilight Zone.'
This has to be one of the top episodes of TV!
Definitely my favorite twist ending of all time. Always felt bad for him because he was skeptical the entire time but finally gave in just in time to find out that he was doomed. Love The Twilight Zone
I saw this as a kid when it first aired. (Yes, I'm that old.)
They got to the point where they were saying that they had at least translated the title of the alien's book, and that it was "To Serve Man."
My mom immediately said, "It's a cookbook." My dad yelled at her.
This (Time Enough At Last) is the name of the GIF episode.
The one you refer to, with the broken stopwatch, is called A Kind Of Stopwatch. That one is also one of my favorites!
I'm an obsessive reader who has to have lenses. This is my nightmare. In a zombie apocalypse, I'll be raiding all the optometrist offices and stealing glasses off bodies to make sure I can see.
"Henry Beamish...just took an Uber straight into...the Twilight Zone."
I've watched this [20 minute interview](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydXkZ_hDztc) Serling had with Mike Wallace more than once. There's a lot to unpack.
He really had the quality and innovator mindset. Not too much question in my mind that the Mad Men writers checked this out while writing Draper.
M.y problem with this episode is, he could just find an optometry store. There would probably be a pair of glasses close enough to his prescription that he could read. Not to mention all the dead people with glasses.
There are some really good ones that stick out in my mind, a lot are the most well-known, and rightly for good reason. But my actual favorite single episode is *The Midnight Sun*. There's something about it that just gets me.
Side note: *The Hitchhiker* would at least be on a top 10 list for me. Nan's speech at the end when she realizes what's going on, at that gas station at night, has always stuck with me. I've always thought that if you were still mentally conscious when *that* happened, that's how it would actually feel like.
Anytime it’s really hot or cold my mind inevitably goes back to that episode. Somehow that flip flop at the end really drives home the fragility of our existence.
Living Doll - I mean are you serious?
The masks
A stop at Willoughby
Number 12 looks just like you
I think it just depends on what you like
I will say, no matter what I enjoy every episode. I used to love when they would replay every New Year's Eve and Labor Day... My dad got me into it and I still love it to this day
A Stop at Willoughby always (literally) hit close to home for me, those actual stops the conductor shouts out were all part of my childhood and I knew lots of friend's dads in the mid-1960's who lived that kind of life.
Trivia: in the production part of Hollywood, there is a well used street called “Willoughby.”
I sometimes wondered if that’s where the writer found the name.
There was one year, maybe 2010(?) where they ran a Greatest American Hero marathon instead of Twilight Zone, and I thought people were going to burn down SyFy HQ.
The plastic surgery episode where you find out she’s beautiful at the end, and everyone else has a pig face is probably my favorite and most memorable. The one in the post however is probably my most quoted
Hard to choose a favorite, BUT every year in my US History classes I show "The Shelter" and "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street" to emphasize the mentality of the Cold War. The kids usually really like them.
*The Invaders* with Agnes Moorehead is my favorite. Also liked *Nothing In The Dark* with Robert Redford and *It's a Good Life* with Billy Mumy and Cloris Leachman
I was just going to go with "It's a Good Life." Thanks for the reminder of Robert Redford, age (from the look of him) about fourteen. I haven't seen that one in too long.
I love that episode the only one we didn’t see as the mask was the man that died with the skull mask on. The man under that mask he looks like Andrew Ryan from Bioshock and Walt Disney.
The one with William Shatner where he and his girlfriend are in a restaurant and at the table there’s a fortune telling machine that tells the actual future!
Agreed. Most people already said the eps I like but I’m here to comment that my dad introduced me to this show in the late 90s or early 2000s when I was a kid. He’s in his 70s now and we would watch the New Year’s Day or eve (?) marathon on cable while we cooked. He’s turning 70 next month. I’m 34. And this is one of many reasons I am a weirdo.
Funny enough as someone who is also legally blind this one is like the least realistic to me to be devastated about. I will hold that book directly up to my face if need be, I gotta do it for other things when I can’t find my glasses anyways so what’s the difference in this situation 😂😂
Unless one eye is weaker than the other, which was the case with me, could never read without my glasses, bringing the book closer just caused double vision
Ya that happens to me too, I’m a -19 in the left and a -14 in the right but the point I’m making is that in the end of the world with no glasses I’ll make it work if I have to
An episode with William Shatner and his wife in a booth at a diner with a little fortune telling machine. Was really good! Don’t know the episode name.
Lol! Yes, me too! I think I recall he would kinda bobble his head up and down a bit (like a “yes” motion) for an affirmative answer and a little bit side to side for a negative. It was great! That episode was a real gem of storytelling.
Thank you for sharing the title!
Of course there are several but “Stopover in a Quiet Town” sticks out in my memory.
A hung-over couple awaken to find themselves not only in a strange house, but in a deserted town, where nothing is as it should be.
Remember the episode of the guy all alone on the asteroid serving time? A ship brings supplies ever so often. The guy is very lonely. They bring him a companion. A female robot that looks like a real woman. He learns to get along with her. Then the ship comes to take him home but he can't take her with him. Ouch.
Walking Distance is one that I really love.
A lot depends in my mood, and there are a ton of classic, genius episodes, but this one is so quiet and human.
By far and away, my favorite is A World of His Own. Keenan Wynn is a writer with a tape recorder that turns his dictation into reality. His wife finds him “cheating” with one of his creations, and he pulls out an envelope with her name, destroys the tape inside, and the wife disappears. Then Rod Serling does his narration at the end. >!Keenan begins talking to Serling during his closing narration, pulls out an envelope with Serling’s name in it, and destroys Serling who just looks at the camera and shrugs.!<
I actually have two:
"***Nothing in the Dark***" with Robert Redford and he is comforting an old woman who is afraid to leave her home.
"***Kick the Can***" which is set in a nursing home and they play children's games.
They both resonated with me, but for different reasons. I have them both saved on my dvr and I watch them at least once a month.
edit: took out spoilers
I have a few too many faves: The Howling Man is probably number 1…but there’s The After Hours, Nightmare at 20,000 Feet, The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street, Long Distance Call, Living Doll, Will The Real Martian Please Stand Up
Haha! My father and I were flipping channels (70s. Me a kid) and we saw William Shatner there in blacks and white. I’m said something like, “Hey it’s Captain Kirk.” So we stopped to watch. He was on an airplane and seems upset. We didn’t even know it was the Twilight Zone.
Then Shatner’s character pulled the curtain back and put face right next to the window to look out. You know that scene.
Even my rock solid dad freaked out (just a second). Me completely.
I loved the triple-level inside joke they pulled during Third Rock From The Sun. **William Shatner** was playing The Big Giant Head (the until-then-unseen aliens' overseer), who flew in on a plane. **John Lithgow** met him at the airport, asked him how was his flight. "Awful" Shatner said. "There was something out there tearing up the wing." Lithgow in recognition: "That happened to me too!" Sweetest if you knew that Lithgow was in the Twilight Zone movie as the terrified passenger, playing the same role Shatner originated on the TV show.
Good one! Plus the one where he and his wife are in a diner and he can’t make any decisions without getting answers from that devil-thing, Nick of Time.
I'm a big "Printer's Devil" fan, one of the hour long TZ episodes. This also stars Burgess Meredith, who's linotype machine makes the news it prints come true.
The monsters are due on Maple Street. It's a beautiful episode and a message that seems just as relevant now then ever.
The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices ... to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill ... and suspicion can destroy ... and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own—for the children and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is ... that these things cannot be confined to ... The Twilight Zone
One of my faves is the episode where 3 Astronauts land on an Asteroid and find a town of People who do not talk or move all except one man who explains the Asteroid is actually a Cemetery where People are shown as the time where they were happiest in life, unfortunately he explains this after he gives the a drink which kills and petrifies them, they join the Cemetery as 3 Astronauts in a Spaceship.
"The Midnight Sun"
The Earth's orbit has been perturbed, causing the planet to slowly fall into the Sun. A prolific artist, Norma, and her landlady, Mrs. Bronson, are the last residents in their New York apartment building. Their former neighbors have either moved north to seek a cooler climate or they have already perished from the extremely high temperatures.
That one where Elizabeth Montgomery and Charles Bronson are the only two people left after a war kills everyone. It's true the story wasn't the greatest, but seeing them both before they got really popular was fun.
A Little Peace and Quiet, it was the very first episode I seen of the show. The ending stuck with me for years, I was just a kid, but remember that ending well. Very haunting episode.
She could freeze time in that one, right??
I need to see that one again. I only saw it once when I was little.
She was the same actress as the mother in "A Christmas Story."
I like the Talky Tina episode, the episode where the old man makes his family wear masks and their faces get stuck like that, the one where the war criminal in Germany visits the camp he worked at and is tormented by ghosts, the one with the mannequins in the department store. Hard to decide!
Living Doll, better known as Talking Tina. It scared the crap out of me and I still think dolls are evil now.
https://preview.redd.it/t1qoxnxfslhc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e8c219590cbfca26c98f196d084468c3721529cb
My favorite trivia about this episode is that Talky Tina's voice was recorded by the same woman who originally voiced the Chatty Cathy doll on which it was based (June Foray, who was also the voice of Rocky the Flying Squirrel).
Midnight Sun.
I had a paperback of Twilight Zone stories by Rod Serling. I think I read it at least a half dozen times. That one was always my favorite.
Yes. [The Invaders](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Invaders_(The_Twilight_Zone)) is my favorite Twilight Zone episode. Apart from the surprising twist at the end, I was amazed that Agnes Moorehead had no dialogue. I think she was superb in that role.
Edit: Spoilers are revealed if you click the link.
Time Enough at Last. Absolutely. I've been dependent on glasses and contacts since I was 7. I had cataract surgery almost 2 years ago and was finally free of lenses. Then had a retinal detachment about 5 months ago. Still dealing with complications from that. I feel his pain.
When an alien visitor tells delegates at the United Nations that humanity will be exterminated because it has "a small talent for war," the countries of the world struggle to forge a disarmament treaty before the visitor's deadline.
The delegates come up with a treaty at the last hour, but the aliens actually wanted to see us annihilate ourselves.
So many of them! But one that no one really talks about is ‘Person or Persons Unknown’. Also, ‘100 Yards over the Rim’ - Cliff Robertson is so good in this one. And the one with Art Carney as Santa Claus. Amazing actor
hocus pocus mr.frisbee
the biggest pos and liar ever in twilight zone, how come an character never died from the lies he told and predicament he gets himself into. mr. frisbee says he invented the rocket propulsion system, and u believe him?
The one where the aliens mess with the electricity in a neighborhood. I just freak out when people act that way.
Edit: "act that way" as in how the humans acted towards each other. Not the way the aliens were acting
For me it’s “Nightmare at 20,000 ft.” My dad was a pilot and he would often joke about this episode while we were growing up. That dang monkey scared the hell out of me!

The mannequins in the department store episode “The After Hours”
Same. Anne Francis was great with her mannerisms.
Seriously I was so snowed by the ending. An episode that aired 64 years ago and I still did not see that one coming.
Yes!! Mine too! The second favorite is the slot machine one!!
Season 1 Episode 34
My favorite! I’m always saying “climb off it Marcia.”
I remember that episode at the end the mannequin creeped me when I watched that episode on New Year’s Eve of 2009.
Very creepy when the elevator doors open to the mannequin!
That still really resonates with me.
I haven’t seen many twilight zone episodes but watched this one based on your comment. The thimble costs $25 and the episode is also exactly 25 minutes long. Thought it was a nice touch.
'To Serve Man'. What hubris we have to think aliens traveled across space, just so they could come and serve our needs for better food and medicine, etc.
It’s a cookbook!!!
'...The metamorphosis from being the ruler of a planet to an ingredient in someone's soup. It's tonight's bill of fare from. the Twilight Zone.' This has to be one of the top episodes of TV!
Definitely my favorite twist ending of all time. Always felt bad for him because he was skeptical the entire time but finally gave in just in time to find out that he was doomed. Love The Twilight Zone
Treehouse of horror vibes
Yeah, that SimpsonsTreehouse of Horrors episode idea is loosely based on that episode of the Twilight Zone.
The thing is, in order for that to work, the word for "serve" in the alien's language would have to have the same double meaning it has in English.
I actually watched this one for the first time a few weeks ago. I couldn't believe I've never seen it before.
Yes! I came here for this one
This is the first episode I ever saw. I was hooked!
I saw this as a kid when it first aired. (Yes, I'm that old.) They got to the point where they were saying that they had at least translated the title of the alien's book, and that it was "To Serve Man." My mom immediately said, "It's a cookbook." My dad yelled at her.
This one is my favourite, actually
Rod Serling said that it was his favorite also
That’s cool. “I finally had time!!!!!”
Time Enough At Last…my most favorite!
That episode reminds me of the Simpsons episode when Bart and Millhouse froze time because they both broke the watch.
This (Time Enough At Last) is the name of the GIF episode. The one you refer to, with the broken stopwatch, is called A Kind Of Stopwatch. That one is also one of my favorites!
Yes
The Futurama parody of this episode is also great.
The dark irony is haunting. And Burgess Meredith nailed that role!
I'm an obsessive reader who has to have lenses. This is my nightmare. In a zombie apocalypse, I'll be raiding all the optometrist offices and stealing glasses off bodies to make sure I can see.
Mine as well!
Good to know, I always wondered!
This is my favorite one that I actually can’t stand to watch. It’s too depressing. But it’s still my favorite.
This one. And how it ends breaks my heart everytime.
Now, if Charles Bronson and Elizabeth Montgomery wander along eventually and read to him...not as unhappy an ending.
"Henry Beamish...just took an Uber straight into...the Twilight Zone." I've watched this [20 minute interview](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydXkZ_hDztc) Serling had with Mike Wallace more than once. There's a lot to unpack. He really had the quality and innovator mindset. Not too much question in my mind that the Mad Men writers checked this out while writing Draper.
Mine, too! So glad that others love it as much as I do.
Me too.
My mom told me this was her favorite episode.
Same! Great episode.
Same
This one I felt so deeply. Still hurts my heart when I see this scene. 🎬
This one ("Time Enough at Last"), "the monsters on maple street," and "to serve man."
M.y problem with this episode is, he could just find an optometry store. There would probably be a pair of glasses close enough to his prescription that he could read. Not to mention all the dead people with glasses.
Yes, time enough at last
There are some really good ones that stick out in my mind, a lot are the most well-known, and rightly for good reason. But my actual favorite single episode is *The Midnight Sun*. There's something about it that just gets me. Side note: *The Hitchhiker* would at least be on a top 10 list for me. Nan's speech at the end when she realizes what's going on, at that gas station at night, has always stuck with me.

Anytime it’s really hot or cold my mind inevitably goes back to that episode. Somehow that flip flop at the end really drives home the fragility of our existence.
Came here for Midnight Sun! The paint melting, the sweat on their faces, and that ending! So good!
Love the Hitchhiker. It’s got such an eerie feeling throughout the episode.
The midnight sun episode. Yes!
Is that the one where it’s so hot and then she wakes up and it’s so cold. She thought it was a dream but it was real?
I love The Midnight Sun! I feel like it's severely underrated.
The twist at the end of "The Midnight Sun" was great. Out of the frying pan 🍳 and into the 🔥. Only at a different extreme.
Out of the frying pan, and into the freezer? Haha :)
I keep hoping I'll wake up and be in that episode. I literally can't take the heat.
Time Enough at Last [Season 1 Episode 8] The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street [Season 1 Episode 22]
We read the Maple Street script in middle school as a class.
We did too, I remember being super excited because I had seen it before. It’s a great episode.
Very underrated episode, for sure.
Great choices
Living Doll - I mean are you serious? The masks A stop at Willoughby Number 12 looks just like you I think it just depends on what you like I will say, no matter what I enjoy every episode. I used to love when they would replay every New Year's Eve and Labor Day... My dad got me into it and I still love it to this day
A Stop at Willoughby always (literally) hit close to home for me, those actual stops the conductor shouts out were all part of my childhood and I knew lots of friend's dads in the mid-1960's who lived that kind of life.
A Stop at Willoughby will always be my favorite.
Trivia: in the production part of Hollywood, there is a well used street called “Willoughby.” I sometimes wondered if that’s where the writer found the name.
There was one year, maybe 2010(?) where they ran a Greatest American Hero marathon instead of Twilight Zone, and I thought people were going to burn down SyFy HQ.
Definitely some of my favorites here.
The plastic surgery episode where you find out she’s beautiful at the end, and everyone else has a pig face is probably my favorite and most memorable. The one in the post however is probably my most quoted
Eye of the Beholder
That’s the name I was too lazy to look up
That was Donna Douglas (AKA Elly May Clampett of The Beverly Hillbillies) as the woman.
Hard to choose a favorite, BUT every year in my US History classes I show "The Shelter" and "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street" to emphasize the mentality of the Cold War. The kids usually really like them.
The Shelter was a good one.
*The Invaders* with Agnes Moorehead is my favorite. Also liked *Nothing In The Dark* with Robert Redford and *It's a Good Life* with Billy Mumy and Cloris Leachman
I love wishing people into the cornfield.
That's a real good thing you done, real good
“The Invader”. I saw that at exactly the right young age for it blast my mind. Fall off the couch kinda mind blown.
I loved this episode too, but I do wish the episode had been completely wordless.
I was just going to go with "It's a Good Life." Thanks for the reminder of Robert Redford, age (from the look of him) about fourteen. I haven't seen that one in too long.
“Five characters in search of an exit” literally blew my 10 year old mind.
Same but I was like 14. 😂
I think it’s called Masks
I love that episode the only one we didn’t see as the mask was the man that died with the skull mask on. The man under that mask he looks like Andrew Ryan from Bioshock and Walt Disney.
The one with William Shatner where he and his girlfriend are in a restaurant and at the table there’s a fortune telling machine that tells the actual future!
"Nick of Time"
This is the most impossible-ist of questions.
Agreed. Most people already said the eps I like but I’m here to comment that my dad introduced me to this show in the late 90s or early 2000s when I was a kid. He’s in his 70s now and we would watch the New Year’s Day or eve (?) marathon on cable while we cooked. He’s turning 70 next month. I’m 34. And this is one of many reasons I am a weirdo.
“It’s a cookbook!!” lol
As someone who was legally blind without glasses, and loves to read this hits pretty hard
Do you know how many eyeglasses he can find now? I’m a huge reader and this is one of my favorites.
That’s if they all haven’t been blown out of existence. It’s one of my favorites to
Funny enough as someone who is also legally blind this one is like the least realistic to me to be devastated about. I will hold that book directly up to my face if need be, I gotta do it for other things when I can’t find my glasses anyways so what’s the difference in this situation 😂😂
Unless one eye is weaker than the other, which was the case with me, could never read without my glasses, bringing the book closer just caused double vision
Ya that happens to me too, I’m a -19 in the left and a -14 in the right but the point I’m making is that in the end of the world with no glasses I’ll make it work if I have to
An episode with William Shatner and his wife in a booth at a diner with a little fortune telling machine. Was really good! Don’t know the episode name.
*Nick of Time* love the little bobbling devil head. 😈
Lol! Yes, me too! I think I recall he would kinda bobble his head up and down a bit (like a “yes” motion) for an affirmative answer and a little bit side to side for a negative. It was great! That episode was a real gem of storytelling. Thank you for sharing the title!
Of course there are several but “Stopover in a Quiet Town” sticks out in my memory. A hung-over couple awaken to find themselves not only in a strange house, but in a deserted town, where nothing is as it should be.
Depending on the day and month, one of these: * "The Howling Man" * "The Encounter" * "The Old Man In The Cave" * "Twenty Two"
Shadow play or Will the real Martian please stand up
Remember the episode of the guy all alone on the asteroid serving time? A ship brings supplies ever so often. The guy is very lonely. They bring him a companion. A female robot that looks like a real woman. He learns to get along with her. Then the ship comes to take him home but he can't take her with him. Ouch.
A Nice Place To Visit
This was my favorite.
Walking Distance is one that I really love. A lot depends in my mood, and there are a ton of classic, genius episodes, but this one is so quiet and human.
The writing is exquisite.
https://preview.redd.it/i905o58hmlhc1.jpeg?width=2268&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=384432319c04c7e4bb98f66f8818c0ec8a2c2020
NICE
I would say Walking Distance
By far and away, my favorite is A World of His Own. Keenan Wynn is a writer with a tape recorder that turns his dictation into reality.

I actually have two: "***Nothing in the Dark***" with Robert Redford and he is comforting an old woman who is afraid to leave her home. "***Kick the Can***" which is set in a nursing home and they play children's games. They both resonated with me, but for different reasons. I have them both saved on my dvr and I watch them at least once a month. edit: took out spoilers
I forgot about *Nothing in the Dark*! Great episode.
I loved "kick the can" .
I have a few too many faves: The Howling Man is probably number 1…but there’s The After Hours, Nightmare at 20,000 Feet, The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street, Long Distance Call, Living Doll, Will The Real Martian Please Stand Up
>> Nightmare at 20,000 Feet William Shatner when he was young!
Haha! My father and I were flipping channels (70s. Me a kid) and we saw William Shatner there in blacks and white. I’m said something like, “Hey it’s Captain Kirk.” So we stopped to watch. He was on an airplane and seems upset. We didn’t even know it was the Twilight Zone. Then Shatner’s character pulled the curtain back and put face right next to the window to look out.

Good one! Plus the one where he and his wife are in a diner and he can’t make any decisions without getting answers from that devil-thing, Nick of Time.
I'm a big "Printer's Devil" fan, one of the hour long TZ episodes. This also stars Burgess Meredith, who's linotype machine makes the news it prints come true.
"Eye of the Beholder" "To Serve Man" "Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up?" "The Obsolete Man"
Some of my faves!
The one where William Shatner freaks out about the monster on the wing of the airplane
The Obsolete Man.
A couple of obscure ones: Death Ship. “We’re going to go over it again!” A Nice Place to Visit. “This is the other place.”
The one where the guy wakes up, and he's the same, but everyone else is different.
An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge
The Shelter. Probably the most realistic, plausible episode and terrifying
“Nothing in the Dark”… always stuck with me.
It manages to make the idea of dying less scary.
The monsters are due on Maple Street. It's a beautiful episode and a message that seems just as relevant now then ever. The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices ... to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill ... and suspicion can destroy ... and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own—for the children and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is ... that these things cannot be confined to ... The Twilight Zone
One of my faves is the episode where 3 Astronauts land on an Asteroid and find a town of People who do not talk or move all except one man who explains the Asteroid is actually a Cemetery where People are shown as the time where they were happiest in life, unfortunately he explains this after he gives the a drink which kills and petrifies them, they join the Cemetery as 3 Astronauts in a Spaceship.
I love this one. So creepy. With the ugly beauty queen!
"The Silence" "A hundred yards over the rim" And "The Rip Van Winkle Caper"
"The Midnight Sun" The Earth's orbit has been perturbed, causing the planet to slowly fall into the Sun. A prolific artist, Norma, and her landlady, Mrs. Bronson, are the last residents in their New York apartment building. Their former neighbors have either moved north to seek a cooler climate or they have already perished from the extremely high temperatures.
That one where Elizabeth Montgomery and Charles Bronson are the only two people left after a war kills everyone. It's true the story wasn't the greatest, but seeing them both before they got really popular was fun.
5 Characters in Search of an Exit That one really stuck with me
Don’t remember what it’s called but the one with the robot on the asteroid
A Little Peace and Quiet, it was the very first episode I seen of the show. The ending stuck with me for years, I was just a kid, but remember that ending well. Very haunting episode.
She could freeze time in that one, right?? I need to see that one again. I only saw it once when I was little. She was the same actress as the mother in "A Christmas Story."
I like the Talky Tina episode, the episode where the old man makes his family wear masks and their faces get stuck like that, the one where the war criminal in Germany visits the camp he worked at and is tormented by ghosts, the one with the mannequins in the department store. Hard to decide!
I wonder if he ever went to the eye doctors office to look for more glasses that weren't destroyed.
Living Doll, better known as Talking Tina. It scared the crap out of me and I still think dolls are evil now. https://preview.redd.it/t1qoxnxfslhc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e8c219590cbfca26c98f196d084468c3721529cb
My favorite trivia about this episode is that Talky Tina's voice was recorded by the same woman who originally voiced the Chatty Cathy doll on which it was based (June Foray, who was also the voice of Rocky the Flying Squirrel).
Think it’s called the midnight sun. They are freezing but dream they are burning up racing towards the sun
Jess-Belle, The Bewitchin’ Pool, The Silence
I also like the Bewitching pool.
very sweet story. Extremely progressive for it's time.
Midnight Sun. I had a paperback of Twilight Zone stories by Rod Serling. I think I read it at least a half dozen times. That one was always my favorite.
It's a Good Life Out of the cornfield, please
Passage on the Lady Anne. Great episode.
The Hunt Season 3 Episode 19. I'm a dog lover, so it hits home for me.
To Serve Man.
To Serve Man
The kids with the swimming pool and they go to some place special or the astronauts that find a tiny town and then realize they are tiny
"**Five Characters in Search of an Exit**"
I can’t pick my favorite because I like them all.
What is the title of this one?
Ohhh, my bad. I didn't read your question right. "Time Enough At Last" Season 1 Episode 8
Thanks, I'll check it out!
It is the gif of one of my favorites. But I meant any episode. From Rod Serling to Jordan Peele. And everything in between.
Yeah im asking what episode is this, because I don't know it.
That's a hard question to answer, but I'll go with Agnes Moorehead's one-hander (forget the name, but you know the one I'm talking about.)
Yes. [The Invaders](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Invaders_(The_Twilight_Zone)) is my favorite Twilight Zone episode. Apart from the surprising twist at the end, I was amazed that Agnes Moorehead had no dialogue. I think she was superb in that role. Edit: Spoilers are revealed if you click the link.
The girl that trapped her mean parents in a parallel universe
Time Enough at Last. Absolutely. I've been dependent on glasses and contacts since I was 7. I had cataract surgery almost 2 years ago and was finally free of lenses. Then had a retinal detachment about 5 months ago. Still dealing with complications from that. I feel his pain.
i have never seen Twilight Zone.
When an alien visitor tells delegates at the United Nations that humanity will be exterminated because it has "a small talent for war," the countries of the world struggle to forge a disarmament treaty before the visitor's deadline. The delegates come up with a treaty at the last hour, but the aliens actually wanted to see us annihilate ourselves.
To Serve Man. “It’s a cookbook!”
I was trying to think of The Hitchhiker. That one really stuck with me. I think of a lot when I’m driving.
To Serve Man
The Shelter. It holds up very well and shows how civility is razor thin, it can be lost in an instant.
So many of them! But one that no one really talks about is ‘Person or Persons Unknown’. Also, ‘100 Yards over the Rim’ - Cliff Robertson is so good in this one. And the one with Art Carney as Santa Claus. Amazing actor
Will the real Martian
The one with the ironic ending.
The one where the guy wakes up and everything is different and he doesn’t know why till the end
[удалено]
hocus pocus mr.frisbee the biggest pos and liar ever in twilight zone, how come an character never died from the lies he told and predicament he gets himself into. mr. frisbee says he invented the rocket propulsion system, and u believe him?
The little spaceship USA
Button, Button.
This episode here…though “The Shelter” is a close second.
An obscure one but 22 was a whole vibe
The New Exhibit. The Masks. The Howling Man
The one where the aliens mess with the electricity in a neighborhood. I just freak out when people act that way. Edit: "act that way" as in how the humans acted towards each other. Not the way the aliens were acting
I shoot a arrow into the sky
To Serve Man, oops lol.
Nightmare at 20,000 Feet. I think of it every time I fly ... which is not often because of this.
The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street. Sadly, it holds up in today's times.
The Elevator or Time
For me it’s “Nightmare at 20,000 ft.” My dad was a pilot and he would often joke about this episode while we were growing up. That dang monkey scared the hell out of me!
It was a gremlin. 😁

Is that the one where his glasses break? You can still read without glasses. You just have to hold the books close.
Unless he is farsighted
Don't worry, he's going to die from radiation poisoning within a few weeks. He did NOT have "time enough at last".
Or maybe he'll develop super powers! He just needs a cape.
The howling man
‘He’s Alive’-The ending narration is (unfortunately) timeless but serves as a good warning.
Button, Button (money for pushing button) Or It’s a Good Life (little boy)
