All mentioned are good. Don't remember the phone cord in the cemetery one....will have to watch for it.

How about the monks in the old Abbey who have the guy held in jail by the little staff, who turns out to be the Devil and start WWII....

The one where Alyssa Milano gets nekkid.

(Ok, ok, it was an Outer Limits episode)

I was lucky enough to see the very first Twilight Zone episode on the night it aired, and I was hooked from that night on. When this thread appeared, so many episodes came to mind that I had to Google "Twilight Zone Episodes" to find the titles I wanted to post. Needless to say, I spent considerable time reviewing each and every summary, and I can honestly say it's too difficult to pick a single one. I'll just vote for all that have been named so far, and all that will be posted hereafter. There truly was a golden age of television.

The one where the bank robber gets shot, he wakes up in a place where he wins everything he tries, has everything he wants..

Plays pool- clears the table, there is no challenge.

He says "I want to go to the other place!"

"YOU ARE IN THE OTHER PLACE!!!"

"The Living Doll", Talking Tina with Tell Savalas. Although every episode is great.

saw that as a kid and every damn time i get on a flight i think about that.

Yes! That one. I also recall one about a ventriloquist's dummy who controlled his "master." I don't even recall specifically what creeped me out about it, but I get the willies just recalling it.

Later, they go coon hunting and the dogs starts to drown in the water fighting a coon; the old guy dives in to save him. They wake up (late) the next morning beside the creek ........................you guessed it.........they're both really dead but don't know it.

I'm a real softie for dogs, and at the end of this episode when the angel tells the hillbilly that "a man will walk into hell with both eyes open, but not even the devil can fool a dog" I always tear up.

Lots of Twilight Zone episodes on Hulu...

Hulu - Search

Great thread! Most episodes were great, the rest were merely good.

My favorite, probably because (to me) it was the creepiest, was "Nightmare as a Child."

Nightmare as a Child - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The little girl's voice was so sweet, yet so haunting. "I'm You, Helen!" still sends shivers up my spine when I watch the episode.

I always liked the episode where the secret to eternal youth was playing Kick the Can.

Wasn't Burgess Meredeth in a New Twilight Zone episode, as a wino who found a medical kit in the garbage? Seems like he could successfully operate on people, but I don't remember what the upshot was. Or was I living in another dimension when I thought of that?

Talking Tina is a classic. As are both Shatner episodes (Nightmare at 20K' and Nick of Time).

Almost all of them are classics...possibly the most consistently well written show ever on TV. Penny for Your THoughts with Dick York was a good one, and It's A Good Life (which I often quote) is pretty creepy. I'll never forget the jack-in-the-box shadow...

I have collected all but 20 of the 156 episodes.

I am with many of you guys, "Time Enough at Last"with Burgess Meredith is my favorite.

"The best laid plans of mice and men and Henry Bemis, the small man in the glasses who wanted nothing but time. Henry Bemis, now just a part of a smashed landscape, just a piece of the rubble, just a fragment of what man has deeded to himself. Mr. Henry Bemis...in the Twilight Zone."

Talking Tina is great.

I will say that I have not seen most of these however. Now I want to!

I still remember the TZ episode where a prisoner makes an agreement with the prison undertaker to escape from the jail in a coffin. The undertaker is supposed to dig him up the post-funeral. The prisoner avoids looking at the dead body the whole time until the body rolls over onto him and it is the dead undertaker next to him in coffin. I guess I scared easily as a kid.....
