Thanks for the schedule link. Dish isn't listing the individual episodes.

It's a shame that I've seen just about all of the half-hour episodes already (and a bigger shame that I can't sit through most of the one-hour episodes. They're just too long!)

[tatsinfla]

thanks for the heads up...always loved that show and rod...great writer...died way to young...

[NeoConfederate]

Thanks for the heads-up! Brings me back to the days I’d axe my mom to make some coffee at night and I’d stay up to watch The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limts, and most anything with Vincent Price.

Then I discovered pot and they really got good! Does anyone remember Night Gallery? That was the bomb! Much in the same way Israel is now bombing the terrorist group Hamas. I can’t wait till the Shock-n-Awe part!

[Toki]

Wow! Thanks for the reminder. I always try to watch some of the marathon, (but I always catch the same episodes over and over.) Now I can try to find some new ones. :D

Twilight Zone Marathon all day today and New Years Day on Sci-Fi Channel

This will drive the wife nuts - "HOW MANY TIMES can you watch that stuff?

Let me count the ways . . .

As an old bold Linotype operator, my favorite one-hour episode is "Printer's Devil". Burgess Meridith was in top form.

Also has Twilight Zone episodes free online.

I’m going to have to turn off the Twilight Zone recording on my DVR or that sucker’s going to fill up over the weekend.

There’s also a Clint Eastward marathon on AMC (American Movie Classics). It’s scheduled to run until 12 noon(ET) New Years Day. Immediately following the final Eastward film is The Magnificent Seven.

BTTT! Thanks for that info.

[Tanniker Smith]

I always liked "A Stop at Willoughby" for a good story with a nice little twist at the end.

That one caught my wife totally off-guard, and it was right after some other episode that made her comment, "Why does it always seem like they're saying 'don't bother trying to be better than you are, be happy with you're current lot'?"

Actually, that's one thing that I hate about bad TZ ripoffs (and some of the poorer episodes): whether the main character lives or dies, thrives or is punished seems to be totally random, regardless of character or decisions or even any relevant moral.

There are three Twilight Zone Episodes that they never seem to show on the SciFi Channel:

* "The Time Element" ..................................... 11/24/58 (Original Pilot Episode)
* "An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge" ... 2/28/64
* "The Encounter" ............................................ 5/1/64

[Zionist Conspirator]

Dang! I’d forgotten about this!

[NCC-1701]

Thanks for the heads up. However, I don’t have to watch it on Sci-Fi any more. I’ve got the complete boxed set so a TZ marathon is possible at anytime.

As an aside, I want to wish all FReepers a very happy and prosperous new year in 2009. That is despite of The Messiah taking the reins of the country for the next four years.
