Twilight Zone Marathon..

What's your fav episode?

[First Speaker]

1. "Dead Man's Shoes"

...the show was always best, I thought, when it was close to the "real" world of the 1950s--the tail end of the Noir era. This episode was a neat little mini-noir fantasy, Warren Stevens was a criminally wasted actor with a Bogart quality to him, and I just love that little jazz riff that keeps running thru the episode...and of course, it was in black and white, which helped the series immensely...

12. "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street" is brilliant-- the ultimate TZ

Serling's closing commentary:

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.

13. A Stop At Willoughby

where the depressed, over-worked, hen-pecked, and demoralized business man decides to get off his commuter train at a place called Willoughby, which is located somewhere in the calm days of the late 19th century. I like that episode because that man is me and I'd love to be able to escape the living hell of the modern world.
