I don't know if the following TZ episode list is 100% accurate, in terms of air dates, etc.
In any case, my top 3 favorites in the western category are:
The Grave, The 7th Is Made Up of Phantoms, and Mr. Garrity and the Graves. Other 'western' episodes are:
Mr. Denton on Doomsday, (The) Execution, Dust, A Hundred Yards Over the Rim, and Still Valley.
Of the 'Space' episodes, my top 3 are:
People Are Alike All Over, The Lonely, and The Little People. To Serve Man was a great one too, IMHO.
Other assorted favorites (in order of listed air dates) are:
Time Enough At Last, A Nice Place to Visit, A Stop at Willoughby, The Howling Man, The Night Of The Meek, The Odyssey Of Flight 33, The Rip Van Winkle Caper, The Obsolete Man, The Hunt, The Changing of the Guard, Nightmare at 20,000 Feet, and Living Doll (Talky Tina).

Such well-written stories. Even my kids (now teens) enjoyed the original series, though it was long before their time.
The Hunt
Hocus Pocus and Frisby
A Stop at Willoughby
Nightmare at twenty thousand is great. Shatner is such a ham. Also Little Girl Lost is one of my favorites. Daughter is missing in the middle of the night call a physicist to find out what’s going on. That seems reasonable.
Did you catch this true-life story from earlier...
Hiker Burned, 2 Dogs Die After Leaping Into Idaho Hot Spring
NBC News ^ | August 25, 2015 | Reuters
SALMON, Idaho — A man hiking through a national forest in Idaho suffered severe burns and his two dogs were scalded to death when both canines plunged into a hot spring and he jumped in after them to try to save his pets, authorities said on Tuesday.
Langolier.
....
Hocus pocus and frisby
A rural gas station attendant given to telling tall tales about himself is kidnapped by aliens who believe him to be one of Earth’s leading intellects.
You Drive
After involved with a hit-and-run killing a child, Mr. Oliver Pope is haunted by his car.
Night Call
Telephone calls begin to haunt a disabled elderly woman.
The Bewitchin’ Pool
Two children escape their bickering parents through a portal in the bottom of their swimming pool to a magical land watched over by a kindly old woman the children call Aunt T.
_____________________
That last one, the bewitchin pool, really appealed to me as a kid. I too came from a broken, dysfunctional home and how I wished I could escape to a nicer, better world just by diving to the bottom of a pool.
Thanks for posting the season list and summaries.
Episode is "Stopover in a Quiet Town". It was one several from the end of the final season that I mistakenly left off.
Bkmk
Absolutely heartbreaking..

Yeah, that was a nice one. Sorry things weren't so good early on for you.
The episode reminded me a bit of when I lived on Manhattan's Lower East Side, which at the time (the 1960s) was a ghetto. We used to travel to Tennessee by train each summer to spend a month with relatives (on my father's side). Life was so completely different there: Warm, southern hospitality, great home cooking, beautiful scenery (Great Smokey Mtns), open space, etc, etc... There were many a time during the other months I wished I could "disappear" and wind up in Tennessee with my grandparents, aunts and uncles. Not that I had any real trouble at home, but I just loved it so much in Tennessee.
You’re welcome. Sorry for leaving off several at the end. Among them were some excellent episodes.
Huh?
They are all good. Now I might have to drag out my dvds and watch them all over again. To Serve Man always sticks in my memory. I just remember laughing and laughing. I was not expecting that ending.
I agree. That episode haunts me to this day.
I've always wondered why he didn't look for an eyeglass store while he had his glasses.
