| Apparently they couldn't trademark the term "Sci-Fi" so they changed the spelling... it's a "Branding" thing. Ghey.
Skimmed thru the program guide today and decided that I'm gonna record about a 6-hr block's worth of shows tomorrow afternoon, ending with my all time fave Zone, "Time Enough At Last" with Burgess Meredith as the little guy who wishes he had more time to read... | |

| I totally OD'd on SyFy's "Twilight Zone" marathon... it'll take me forever to watch all the eps I recorded... but I did sit down specifically to watch "Time Enough At Last" w/Burgess Meredith... my fave episode of the entire series. I feel so damn sorry for that guy @ the end... you just go "Awwwww, man that SUCKS!"

| I recorded a bunch of em too, and only took the time to watch my favorites so far, but man do I love some of those shows. Will The Real Martian Please Stand Up? is one of my all time favorite shows. | |

That's a good one too, with all the people in the diner! I also watched the one with Barry Nelson and his wife waking up after a party to find themselves trapped in an empty town made of stage props and paper mache (forget the name of it)... at the end the camera pulls back and they're in a little kid's doll house set up ("Honey, be careful with your new pets! Your father brought them all the way from Earth!") ... During the marathon they kept pimping this 28-DVD set of the entire series in a big box... I was droolin' at the thought but I'm sure it's gotta be expensive as hell... | |

| I know the classic TZs by heart so much, I rarely watch the marathons anymore. I taped them when WGN was running them every night back in the 80s and watched then over and over and over. I think it's probably the only big anthology series I do NOT have on dvd because I'm too familiar with all the stories.
The definitive collections and regular sets will probably be going down in price once the blu ray's start coming out this year.
Just keep those Tales from the Darkside's coming, then someone put out Monsters! dammit. | |

| I missed the marathon this time around, but I watched quite a few of the episodes the last time some channel was running a marathon. Might have been the Sci-Fi channel, but I don't remember. I found it amusing to see so many episodes that the Simpsons re-worked into many of the early Treehouse of Terror Halloween shows. | |
