"I highly commend the episode: 'Nightmare on Elm Street'..."

Actually, I believe the name of the episode to which you are referring (according to the TZ Episode Guide) is "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street." That was one of my all-time favorite TZ episodes. Another one of my favorites is "The Obsolete Man." That one starred Burgess Meredith as a man sentenced to die for his "obsolete" belief in God. I think we're headed in that direction as well.

"Monsters Due on Maple Street" You are quite correct, sir.
Claude Akins as one of the players trying to maintain sanity in a neighborhood gone mad.

"The Obsolete Man" ... Fritz Weaver, first as judge & grand inquisitor,only to slip up in his moment of great distress and himself also found obsolete in his role as was Burgess Meredith - Mr. Wordsworth.

Robert Redford as a severely wounded policeman, initially refused help by the old widow as she believes him to be the angel of death come to claim her. ....... Charles Bronson and Elizabeth Montgomery as opposing combatants in a post apocalypse world.....etc.

Imaginative writing, good casting and stories with a message within a half hour format.
