Maybe someday I'll have plans to spend the holiday at some wild swingin' party, but until then, TZ is always my reminder that it's the new year. lol

BL, out of the ones playing in this marathon, some of my favorites are:
Will The Real Martian Please Stand Up? (12/31 at 9:00 PM)
The Obsolete Man (12/31 at 9:30 PM)
The Howling Man (1/1 at 7:00 PM)
Time Enough At Last (1/1 at 8:00 PM)
The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street (1/1 at 9:00 PM)
Nightmare at 20,000 Feet (1/1 at 10:00 PM)

Those are "classics" for me, but there are many other great ones...you pretty much can't go wrong! There are still some I've never seen or hardly remember, and I'm hoping to catch a few this time around.

I'll watch a Stop at Willoughby.

Each year my daughter and I create a village with lighted houses and figures under our Christmas tree and we call the village "Willoughby" in honor of this episode.

I too love the "Howling Man" and, of course, "Twenty-two." Thirdfrom the Sun is another good one with a classic TZ twist.

"Twenty two" was a good one as well. So was "The Invaders."

You know the whole idea behind "Life on Mars" happens in a nutshell in "Stop at Willoughby." Each and every episode has a wonderful idea. I should make time to watch the next seasons. smile

Re: Twilight Zone Marathon - 01/12/09 08:00 PM


I started a Twilight Zone marathon of my own last night -- starting with Season 1 Episode 1, but there was a glitch with the Netflix on-demand that caused the audio to lag about half a minute behind the video. I wasn't sure if that was intended or not while watching, knowing this series! lol But alas, the second episode had the same problem, so I gotta wait 'til they fix it. ohwell But it's great that Netflix has the entire series (just the first on-demand so far, though)

That'd be a fun way to watch it, from beginning to end, to see how the show progressed.

I loved the marathon. I wish I could buy that whole DVD collection.
