Greatest television shows ever

[WillMunny]

I saw that one. My favorites are the really dark, scary ones. Like "The Hitch Hiker" or "When the Sky was Opened" or "The Grave" or "The Purple Testament" or "Judgment Night", etc. etc. Those are the real ghostly ones that give me the cold chills.

I’ll check ‘em out. Thanks!

Here's a couple of other great, chilling ones: the utter mind-puzzler "The Arrival" and "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" (featuring Capt. Kirk himself as a mentally unstable air traveler).

I saw Nightmare at 20,000 Feet.

Another fun TZ tidbit, "The Grave" featured the late, great Lee Marvin, who (obviously) managed to be the biggest badass ever....without firing a single shot.

"Ah reckon Ah bet agin ya, Conny."

Ah yes, I remember that Lee Marvin scene in the bar very well. He smacked that young, stupid guy across the room for suggesting he was afraid.

Also had the great Strother Martin as Mothershed.

Wasn't standard Western Lee Van Cleef in that episode, too? Or maybe I was thinking of something different. At any rate, the bar scene was wonderfully, realistically acted by all those guys and that weird, mysterious girl that played Pinto Sykes' sister.

Yup, I'd forgotten he was in it too.

Rod Serling went to one of the most liberal colleges in this entire country, Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Funny fact, Leonard Nimoy graduated from there as well.

But Serling and Nimoy were those "old school" 50's & '60s liberals who also wanted the best for America, but simply had different ideas from Republicans on how to do it. They have nothing whatsoever to do with today's violent, murderously American-hating, psychotic-public-train-wreck, utterly criminal Democratic party that exists now.

Liberals are liberals

I like the one where he's at the beach and happens to stand next to a huge woman laying in the sand. She says, "Hey, you're blocking my sun! I'm trying to get an all body tan here." And Al looks up at the sun, then turns to the woman and says, "You're asking a lot of the sun!"

Rod Serling's original Twilight Zone was the most intelligent, timeless, vivid, well-acted, iconic storytelling in the past 60 years of American television. I'm always glued to the TV whenever ScyFy does a 48-hour TZ marathon, I never get tired of them. Name me a TV with more brains than the TZ.

...didn't that have an episode of some country bumpkin that loved to tell tall tales/exaggerate like a lot of country bumpkins do, all the time--and one was some aliens landed nearby and he ''defeated '' them with his harmonica...???
