The Rip Van Winkle Caper

>not Nothing in the Dark

This is my favorite, so I'll just say "the Howling Man".
The "gold is worthless" twist in that wasn't that good but I still liked the episode.

"There's a Gremlin on the side of the bus"

>Real Martian
But he was Venusian

Odyssey of flight 33

...

Eye of the Beholder

To Serve Man

Walking Distance or the Howling Man.

Walking Distance.

That was easy

A Quality Of Mercy

Thirty Fathom Grave is kino.

Walking Distance is the best for making you feel things.

And When the Sky Was Opened and A World of Difference are underrated.

The Shelter. I Am The Night, Color Me Black

>tfw when Netflix doesn't have S4 of Twilight Zone so you can't watch The Thirty Fathom Grave

>tfw I watched The Thirty Fathom Grave for the first time on board a ship in the pacific ocean at midnight

The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street is still the best.

Walking Distance has the best soundtrack too (by Bernard Herrmann too):

>Walking Distance is the best for making you feel things.
The Changing of the Guard

>Walking Distance

Anyone else actually prefer the episodes that are more sentimental instead of "sucks to be you asshole" type endings? One For the Angels is another favorite that makes me so fucking happy but sad at the same time.

Five characters in Search of an Exit

>you will find escape from the hell you share with others once you are loved
>mfw

A Nice Place to Visit was fun.

caesar and me

I'm inclined to agree. I like the "fuck you" stories as well, but I think the ones with some sadness are much more memorable, and the show at its best.

I remember Kick the Can being another highlight for that.

It all depends on how well made they are. In Praise of Pip was more sentimental but it was shit.

Yeah, I get that. A Stop at Willoughby wasnt allowed to be watched when my mom was around because her dead father was basically the exact same character, NYC ad-man living in CT taking the metro north home every night. Hit way to close to home for her.

A Game of Pool

Fantastic episode; one I can watch any time as an autist who wants to be the best at something.

This man knows.
Also, shout out to The Obsolete Man.

The Lonely literally did "Her" fifty years earlier, in a fraction of trhe duration, and better.

I love One For the Angels. But I also love the asshole episodes so I guess it's a good thing TZ had so many of both kinds.

Its more about criminals fucking each other over for nothing than the ending. Hell even back then a mil of gold was not a lot

The one with Burgess Meredith--no, not that one, the other one.

I remember really liking Passage on the Lady Anne.

Not that it's one of the best episodes, I just liked it.

This is really fucking good. I thought most of the soundtracks were just stock.

Will I ever get out of Sup Forums?

It's kind of funny how relevant most of the episodes are to this day.

No

Aside from Serling, who wrote the best episodes?

I really, REALLY like Richard Matheson.

Have you been watching The Good Place?

Another Morgan Brittany episode.

How about the one where the two kids drown in the pool?

Save him, user. He's all yours!

George Clayton Johnson.

A Game of Pool and Nothing in the Dark. Enough said.

>the asteroid prisoner who had to abandon his robot waifu

My favorite is Two. I also like the one where a couple are kidnapped to be alien toys.

This episode also has similarities to that movie.

1) Walking Distance
2) A Stop at Willoughby
3) Time Enough at Last
4) The Invaders
5) The Hitch-Hiker
6) The Big Tall Wish
7) Execution
8) The Shelter
9) The Midnight Sun
10) Miniature

11) An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge (aired on the Twilight Zone Series but was not produced by Serling)

And When the Sky Was Opened has terrified me more than any other TZ episode, I'm not sure why.

The Howling Man or It's A Wonderful Life

>The Hitch-Hiker

One of the few episodes that spooked me.

One of the few times the whole "they were dead the whole time!" trope worked.

Night of the Meek

Nothing in the Dark

Night Call

The Bewitchin Pool

The Hunt

And When the Sky Was Opened

The Lonely

Nick of Time

A Hundred Yards Over the Rim

Where Is Everybody? (Courthouse Square)

The Shelter

A Game of Pool

The Grave

Dead Man's Shoes

A Piano in the House

The Last Rites of Jeff Myrtlebank

Jess-Belle

Except for Back There by Jerry Goldsmith.

>100 yards over the rim
Underrated kino. Love episodes with happy endings.

The greatest thing about the 'Zone, is the fact that even the 'worst' or 'weakest' episodes, were and are still miles above almost anything else.
The show was top notch, even all these years later.

Interesting interpretation, but that's not what happened.
I've also heard the theory that Aunt T was some kind of Witch, who was abducting children to turn them into an army that would take over the real world.
Again, interesting, but bunk.

My favorite .'zone.
youtube.com/watch?v=a1sf2CzEq0w

It's such a great fucking series I can come up with a different favorite episode depending on my mood.
A stop at willougby is what I feel in this moment.

Forget what it is called but the one where the woman keeps having the same dream while in the hospital. The way it was executed was just so suspenseful.

Room for one more, honey.

Also, one of the 4 episodes done on video tape instead of film.

The one where that guy wakes up in an empty town and at the end the camera zooms out to reveal he's small and the town's a dollhouse. Don't know the episode title.

You're getting on a plane and see this chick. What do?

I remember that one. He and his wife were abducted to be toys for an alien kid. Stop Over in a Quiet Town.

The gangster who thinks he's in heaven, but of course it's hell :^]

That's the one. Thanks, user. Got a hankering to do a rewatch now.

Run like hell, then masturbate furiously, cuz, daym.

"Mr. Valentine...What ever gave you the idea this was Heaven? This IS the 'other place. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"

>My mule wouldn't walk in the mud so I had to put seventeen bullets in her

Isn't she the one that played Dr. Spock's underaged wife in Star Track?

>Star Track
If I could reach you, I'd shove a rusty chainsaw up your taint, you ignorant fuckwad.

Jean Marsh was great. Also loved her in Upstairs, Downstairs.

Great answer

Good answer

Bad answer

No, the best soundtrack is that post-apocalyptic one where the American soldier and the qt Russian lady soldier find each other. They used the same score that Himan Brown would later use for CBS radio mystery theater in the 70s.

Time enough at Last is my favorite "fuck you" ending. The guy didn't deserve his fate at all. I always imagined him crawling through the rubble on his hands and knees feeling around for the gun he had decided not to kill himself with.
