Has anyone been watching Twilight Zone marathon?
« on: January 02, 2017, 08:38:22 AM »
Been on all weekend. What are your favorite episodes? Mine-

Living doll, the talking doll that kills the dad.
Slot machine, where the guy gets haunted by a slot machine.
The crippled old lady who keeps getting crank calls. Find out the phone wire is loose and laying on her old fiancé's grave.
The good life, where the little boy sends people out to the field.
Too many more great ones to list.

Apparently there are lots of old dudes on Getbig. Me personally, I draw the line at black and white.

I remember these shows growing up: Tales from the Darkside and Sightings. Both scared the shit out of me.

I actually just found one on eBay for $49.95. It says it is 4" tall. That's pretty small for fifty bucks.

That show was way ahead of it's time, so was Rod Serling.  

I also liked 'Night Gallery'... a bit more dark and creepy.  Some of those episodes scared the shit out of me when I was a kid.  All of season 1 and 2 were awesome...

Serling was an absolute genius! You are spot on, Night Gallery was more dark where Twilight Zone was more of a mind fuck.

Absolutely. 

Must see episodes of Night Gallery are:  'The Cemetary', 'The Dead Man', 'Pickman's Model', 'Cool Air', 'The Caterpillar' and 'Camera Obscura'.

I've seen all 156 TZ episodes one thousand times or more each and still watch the marathons on New Year's & 4th of July. One of my favorite TV shows since I was a kid.

One of the greatest shows ever on television. I still need to get around to finishing the replica of Willy from "The Dummy".

You seriously building a replica. I don't think I could sleep with that in my house.  :o
