I'm watching now! I don't know episode names, but the one where the guy locks himself in a box to keep from talking, the one where the guy is the last person on earth with all the time in the world to read and he steps on his glasses, the one where the ventriloquist dummy ends up being the real person...there are so many great ones!
My favorites are Time Enough at Last, To Serve Man (it's a cook book, it's a cook book!), and the one with the talking Tina doll.
When I was younger and lived at home my mom and I would watch this marathon together every year. I haven't watched it since I moved out because it isn't the same watching it on my own.
I love the Twilight Zone! The one with the guy who steps on his glasses and the one with the ugly people are the two that I always hope to catch during marathons.

I love watching this every year. I love a lot of the ones listed, but also "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street" and the one where William Shatner becomes obsessed with the fortune telling jukebox thing.

My H thinks they're ridiculous, but was so freaked out by Talking Tina. That freaking doll.

The dummy is the stuff of nightmares! Such a good, creepy show.
I don't know the names of the episodes but my 2 favorite ones are:
1. The aliens hang in the tree of a neighborhood. The lights go out and the neighbors start accusing get each other of being an alien. All they did was turn of the lights and humans do a good job at ripping people apart.
2. A spaceship takes off for the moon but crashes. The survivors start killing each other for supplies, water, etc because it would be a long while until they are recued assuming they crashed on a planet. At the very end one man is left, he crawls over a hill and sees a sign saying 'Welcome to Nevada'.'
And of the the creepy kid wishing people to the cornfield.

The one with the woman with the bandages over her face. Is that Eye of the Beholder?
Somewhere I read that Black Mirror was described as a modern take on the Twilight Zone and I was excited to check it out, but no. So much no. I'll stick with the original Twilight Zone.
Yeah, black mirror has a few good eps but is highly overrated imo.
