I saw an episode many many years ago that I swore was a TZ episode. The plot is that a man is trapped in a freeway tunnel, in bumper to bumper traffic. It takes place in real time the entire show is about him gradually breaking down and nearly going insane. And then the twist is that he’s actually in hell. I’m not finding it when looking through the OG TZ, so I thought maybe the 80s reboot but can’t find it there either. Anyone recognize the episode and know what series it might have been on?

Here's the CURRENT standing and surprises:

-The "soap opera cameras" hurt the ranking of 22 and Long Distance Call because I'm really taking visuals/directing into consideration (But these are both great stories)
-Current Politics really affected my viewing of the The Obsolete Man and Eye of the Beholder.
-I love Dust and Nick of Time more than most people
-I got a lot of flack for my first season ranking of The Lonely and Third from the Sun.... I hope there aren't a lot of Mr. Dingle the Strong fans out there (Burgess Meredith is now the star of my 2nd favorite and 2nd least favorite episode.

This has been something I have thought about for a while. We all know how the episode goes and everything, but what has still been bothering me is this section of the story, where Pip takes Rocky to view records on his life. With how it looked and everything, it made me wonder if this was part of Hell still, or what if for a moment, Rocky was actually taken out of Hell?

Feels like some cruel irony that Pip would do, as at this point Rocky doesn't know he is in Hell yet, so it's easy for Pip to take him out without knowing. Of course after realizing this was "the other place", he is now trapped, and can no longer go there. For a moment, Rocky was unknowingly free from his torture for a short amount of time.

Anyone else notice that Mr. Serling pronounced robots as robits? Seems odd

Do you think Ilsa ever told her adoptive parents about being trained in telepathy? Or do you think she would keep it a secret?

If you were in A nice place to visit.

Two brothers played the lead in consecutive episodes of twilight zone. What's your guess no googling.

Disappointing.

What’s the best thing about The Hitch-Hiker?? Save for his initial fourth wall break….hes actually the least creepy thing about the episode.

The sailor (Why is he sitting so close to Nan???). Then Nan manages to outcreep him. Finally her phone call to her mom. (shudder)

Then there’s reading up on Inger Stevens. Poor woman. How can someone do such high-profile work and end up like she did.

A lot of the TZ leads have such tragic ends (see Gig Young)

Some fanart for one of the most iconic episodes of The Twilight Zone!

Starts with a few from Season 4, then a few from Season 5, then a dog's breakast of shows.

Begins 6 a.m. ET and runs through 4 a.m. tomorrow.

I'm finally diving in! I'm super happy to be able to discover the series in its restored version. Which episode do you wish you could watch again for the first time?

My grandfather passed away just over a month ago. He was a collector of so much Sci-fi and memorabilia (mainly Star Trek). I remember he was gifted this DVD box set of the entire series one year for his bday forever ago, and I also purchased him the DVD copy of the movie.

I remember one summer growing up, he let me borrow this set and I watched several classics and found several new to me episodes as well, and I would go back to his house and we would rewatch and talk about him growing up and all sort of things.

Needless to say, going through his belongings, this was the only item I asked for. Maybe one day soon I'll get a lazy Sunday and throw some of his favorites on.

What makes The Twilight Zone such a great show that is appealing to everybody and would it still be beloved in the modern day by younger audiences.

I’m from Brazil and I can’t find it on any streaming service, where can I watch it?

I am a huge fan of this podcast. They did a great job with Twilight Zone! Give it a listen.

i watched season 1 and season 2, I'm currently halfway through season 3

a lot of people say that the hour format did not work in season 4's favor and that there are only a couple of good episodes

I mean the plot and message are very simular. TZ really was the blueprint for a lot of upcomming tropes, stories and horror

Those dolls were very well made. Someone must have saved them. Have they surfaced online?

his Serling impression is pretty good

I wish more people in my circle would give Twilight Zone a chance. I keep telling them Rod Serling was ahead of his time. He walked so Black Mirror could run 😭😩💕

Interesting article about Houdini's death, with a surprising Twilight Zone connection!

Well, not that surprising... i said it in the title.
