I finally found the right time to rewatch this one. The lead actor (Pete?) is amazing. This is one of the s4 episodes that actually works. Especially relevant right now.
Definitely looking to rewatch some more eps before I start studying for my exam tomorrow
For me, it's hard to say as I'm always in the opinion that each of them have their weaknesses. I would go with the 80s one but the episodes were too short and a lot of the episodes from the Peele show didn't suit me. I might go with the 2002-03. Of course, none of them are anywhere as good as the original.
This is honestly just my opinion.. Ive watched the 3 they had, and while some had good episodes here and there, they just didnt capture that feeling for me. maybe the black and white somehow was great at setting tone, idk the revivals just seem lazy to me. I feel like jordan peele wasnt given enough input on his, ive always seen him as great in horror, suspense etc.
I’ve always been a fan of this show. But everything that’s happened over these last couple of days, with the presidential election and all, has made me regain an interest in it (normally, I watch it around new years and the 4th of July. But this year, I’m starting early.) It feels so real. I’ve never seen another show that captured the feeling of life being abnormal, of things not being the way they should be… of things in the world being unsettling. I love how Serling shows, in episodes such as the monsters are due on maple street, that it is possible for a group of people to be wrong, to be unintelligent, to make horrific decisions. I love how he shows that we are oftentimes our own worst enemy, as opposed to some outside force.
I went to watch "escape clause" and the only episodes available in season 1 started at episode 12, season 2 at episode 6 and so on. Can anyone explain this? I just watched these episodes within the last few days
Just a one-off 11 X 14 metal plate print to add to my home decor. Took advantage of a 70% off promo at the photo department of a drugstore
Long story short, on 10/1 I was told that I would be laid off from my job on 10/31 due to a reorg that impacted my area of the business. Since then I've now applied to over 700 jobs on LinkedIn with a few bites here and there. The current job market and waiting game is absolutely exhausting. So with that being said, what are your favorite episodes for times of uncertainty? And for anyone else going through the same thing, best of luck to you. Something good will happen soon.
Made a quick little photo for anyone who is interested. I love the show, pinball, and song. Thought a few might enjoy!
I watched this episode recently and it’s not bad. But what I don’t get is that if the future her is trying to warn the past her, why does she need to dress and scream like that and end up scaring her past self? Shouldn’t she have just rode up chill and just been like “yo don’t marry that dude. Big mistake.”
What is the best parody of the Twilight Zone that you have seen?
Me personally, I like Futurama's "The Scary Door" skits.
Was watching the episode Twenty Two and the ending is super similar to start of the movie Final Destination. The visions, the plane exploding as it took off and her not getting on etc. It all reminded me of it.
I think there may be some influence and there’s a tiny bit of talk about it online. But nothing super solid.
Looks like Rod’s had some Halloween visitors
Regardless of what the outcome is tomorrow, everything will change afterwards. I’ve spent the last two days circling back and forth between “Parks and Rec” and “Laverne and Shirley.” But I honestly want to watch a little twilight zone too because I feel like we’re living in such an interesting, uncertain time and I feel like the twilight zone captures that vibe.
Many of the production crew names from the movie "The witches of Breastwick" are characters from the 1960s "Twilight Zone" series
Any type of way it deals with death such as afterlife , someone dying soon, etc
One of the first episodes I watched with my daughter and the line she still remembers years later ….
“He doesn’t know anything about going to school… or girls …or wearing long pants “
She just thought that was hilarious.
Do you have a line that stuck with you from an episode?
Or a line that when you hear it you immediately know the episode?
Sometimes other anthology shows get mentioned here like One Step Beyond which actually debuted 6 months before TZ.
But does anyone remember this show on HBO back in the 80s?
I’ve got all the series in digital format, the original series is still my favorite
Rod Serling was far ahead of the times with The Twilight Zone. I'm sure he didn't know how beloved the show would be 60 years later. Most of the ideas for the show were genius but not all. One episode I thought was genius was Probe 7, Over and Out. The Adam and Eve ending was brilliant. Some of the ridiculous episodes for me include the ones where characters survive spaceship crashes. (I know 'Adam Cook' survived a crash but at least they tried to make it believable. He had two broken bones in one arm and a cracked rib :o) I can't recall the title but there's one where a spaceship crashes near Reno, NV and some of the crew survive unscathed. If a spaceship had crashed I'm pretty sure no one would have survived and second someone would have seen it even miles away. Anyway, what are some episode you think are brilliant and some not so much?
I was in a mood to play a Twilight Zone-esqe video game and I was wondering if there were anything like that? Bonus points if it’s something available currently for the Nintendo Switch
Ones that haven't been done already, of course. My vote might go towards Harrison Bergeron.
