Are you talking about the man and women that go to a party and wake up the next day and [spoiler] they find them self as living dolls in a play house for an alien giant girl[/spoiler]

That one was called Stopover in a Quiet Town.

A man finds himself wandering in an abandoned town while struggling to find the answers about his identity and where he is.

The one called Where Is Everybody is about a man that finds himself wandering in an abandoned town and doesn't know who he is. It was the very first ep of TW.

There's one episode where the Earth is drifting closer and closer to the sun, slowly killing off all of human civilization as the temperature rises to a boil. But at the end our heroine wakes up to find it was just a dream; the Earth is actually falling away from the sun, and a new ice age is covering everything.

Only full episode I've seen, so I guess that it's my favorite.

It is.


I have been thinking on which ones were my favorite episode or episodes are. There is a few that others have listed that I like and a few that I didn't like so well.

I can say that there is not one episode that I ever hated, but I know some that I just didn't like well as others. There is one thing about the Twilight Zone is, it had something for everyone.

Yeah I can understand that. I mean I didn't hate any of the episodes, just that I prefered some to others.

And there must be another thing said about the Twilght Zone, most of the time you do not know what to expect and often times are surprised by the ending.

Some of the stories were much better than others. I haven't seen the whole series but there were so many interesting and original premises within the show (the originals, not the terrible remakes).
Very enjoyable, thought-provoking and even creepy at times.

Can anyone say great value! I wish I had a spare $140 dollars for the Complete Original Series:

To quote Tristan from Yugioh TAS, "Holy beep on a beep sandwich!" :wow!:

We only own the first season 5-disc set. It's got some really cool goodies there, like an episode of Liar's Club, a game show similar to To Tell the Truth where Rod Serling was the host. He was a great game show host, very charming and funny.

SirThinks2Much, that's a little over $100 US at the moment (shipping is extra of course).

What I meant was, "That's a really good price considering the smaller boxsets used to sell for $30-50 USD." :grin:

Oh, yes. Sorry, I understand now.
I thought you might have understood it as $140 US at the time (I forgot to mention it was an Aussie site). I just hope they keep that price for awhile so I can scrape my moola together and buy it.
