The Obsolete Man

[katsteve2012]

Burgess Meredith appeared in four Twilight Zones
The two you mentioned and the one where he is a weakling who space aliens give super human strength
He was also in a fourth episode where he played the Devil

Jack Klugman also appeared in 4 episodes of the Twilight Zone, tying Burgess Meredith for the most appearances in the series by any other actors.

I remember both of them, and Overholts was in 8 episodes, however I don't recall that either of them played the lead character as many times as Burgess Meredith and Jack Klugman did. I should have clarified that I was referring to lead character appearances.

If you want to go with non-lead actors
Rod Serling appeared in quite a few episodes

I don't recall seeing him as an actor in the series, however I do recall his wife playing in the episode where an airline passenger saw a gremlin trying to sabotage the plane that he was on.

William Shatner was in that one.

He was also in the one with the fortune telling machine.

To Serve Man was pretty good.

In the end it was actually a cookbook.

Incredible episode. As was “I’ve got all the time in the world”. Another Burgess Merideth classic.

I wonder what guys like Rod Serling and George Orwell would say, if they were around today.......~S~
