My brothers were really scared, and left my dolls alone after watching Living Doll.

Matter of fact I would chase them around with my dollies after that episode.

"Time Enough At Last" was always my favorite, probably because I am an extremely .. extremely .. avid reader and my eyesight is only slightly better than that of Burgess Meredith in the show.

It's not fair! It's just not fair!!

“The Eye of the Beholder”

Scared me out of a year’s growth as a kid.

Not a problem. Just click on the link in 86 and it will take you to IMDB, where you can select any episode during the first five seasons. That should give you a good Twilight Zone start ...

I was hoping someone would pick ‘A Stop at Willoughby’. That’s my favorite as well. James Daley gave an Emmy-worthy performance.

“Matter of fact I would chase them around with my dollies after that episode.”

LOL, that’s good! Telly Savalas is the man in that, correct? If a little doll can scare Kojak, you know we got problems!

Agree completely. Liked TZ. Outer Limits scared the crap out of me. Loved it as a second grader, still do.
The Hunt is far and away my favorite as an adult.
