This is my favorite, so I'll just say "the Howling Man".

The "gold is worthless" twist in that wasn't that good but I still liked the episode.

Walking Distance.

That was easy

Thirty Fathom Grave is kino.

Walking Distance is the best for making you feel things.

And When the Sky Was Opened and A World of Difference are underrated.

The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street is still the best.

Walking Distance has the best soundtrack too (by Bernard Herrmann too):

Anyone else actually prefer the episodes that are more sentimental instead of "sucks to be you asshole" type endings? One For the Angels is another favorite that makes me so fucking happy but sad at the same time.

>>80280575
I'm inclined to agree. I like the "fuck you" stories as well, but I think the ones with some sadness are much more memorable, and the show at its best.

I remember Kick the Can being another highlight for that.
>>
>>80280575
It all depends on how well made they are. In Praise of Pip was more sentimental but it was shit.
>>
>>80280575
Yeah, I get that. A Stop at Willoughby wasnt allowed to be watched when my mom was around because her dead father was basically the exact same character, NYC ad-man living in CT taking the metro north home every night. Hit way to close to home for her.
>>
A Game of Pool

Fantastic episode; one I can watch any time as an autist who wants to be the best at something.
>>
>>80280802
This man knows.
Also, shout out to The Obsolete Man.
>>
The Lonely literally did "Her" fifty years earlier, in a fraction of trhe duration, and better.
>>
>>80280575
I love One For the Angels. But I also love the asshole episodes so I guess it's a good thing TZ had so many of both kinds.
>>
>>80279132
Its more about criminals fucking each other over for nothing than the ending. Hell even back then a mil of gold was not a lot
>>
>>80278272
The one with Burgess Meredith--no, not that one, the other one.
>>
I remember really liking Passage on the Lady Anne.

Not that it's one of the best episodes, I just liked it.
>>
>>80280477
This is really fucking good. I thought most of the soundtracks were just stock.

It's kind of funny how relevant most of the episodes are to this day.

Aside from Serling, who wrote the best episodes?

I really, REALLY like Richard Matheson.

George Clayton Johnson.

A Game of Pool and Nothing in the Dark. Enough said.

My favorite is Two. I also like the one where a couple are kidnapped to be alien toys.

This episode also has similarities to that movie.

Underrated kino. Love episodes with happy endings.
>>
The greatest thing about the 'Zone, is the fact that even the 'worst' or 'weakest' episodes, were and are still miles above almost anything else.
The show was top notch, even all these years later.
>>
>>80281265
Interesting interpretation, but that's not what happened.
I've also heard the theory that Aunt T was some kind of Witch, who was abducting children to turn them into an army that would take over the real world.
Again, interesting, but bunk.

My favorite .'zone.

It's such a great fucking series I can come up with a different favorite episode depending on my mood.
A stop at willougby is what I feel in this moment.

Forget what it is called but the one where the woman keeps having the same dream while in the hospital. The way it was executed was just so suspenseful.

No, the best soundtrack is that post-apocalyptic one where the American soldier and the qt Russian lady soldier find each other. They used the same score that Himan Brown would later use for CBS radio mystery theater in the 70s.

Time enough at Last is my favorite "fuck you" ending. The guy didn't deserve his fate at all. I always imagined him crawling through the rubble on his hands and knees feeling around for the gun he had decided not to kill himself with.
