The 2018-19 New Years Twilight Zone Marathon Made Me Marvel

I watched a lot of the Twilight Zone Marathon that comes on every year, even though I have seen every episode many times. 

Here is what I marvel at...

 The Twilight Zone was better than ANYTHING we have on TV here in 2019, even though...

1. They had a low budget with cheap sets.

2. No CGI (Computer Generated Images)

3. Mostly unknown actors. (Even though they became popular later.) 

4. They had to relate a compelling story, with a surprising twist at the end, in LESS than 30 minutes in the first 3 years of the show.

They showed all our favorites during The Twilight Zone Marathon, this year.

1. The one where Burgess Meredeth loves to read, but something happens at the end that...I don't want to spoil it for you.

2. The episode where Claude Akins tries to reason with the town to stop accusing each other of being space aliens and....whoops...don't want to ruin it for you guys. 

Claude Akins on left...who's on right in funny shirt?

3. The scary one where Agnus Moorehead is trapped in her own house by tiny space invaders that look like cheap robot toys and ....nevermind...I'm no spoiler.

4. The classic episode where William Shatner sees something on a plane that I'm not revealing to you folks, in case you ever watch it.

Wait a minute! Wait just a cotton pickin' minute! 

Chances are, you have seen all the same Twilight Zone episodes as me! 

Especially if you're a baby boomer, like me. (That means old)

What is your favorite Twilight Zone episode? Why? Who starred in it? How old were you when you watched it? Did it scare you? Did you think Rod Serling smoked too much, or was it cool at the time? Do you think I'm axing too many questions? Did you notice I substituted axing for asking, because axes were used a lot in The Twilight Zone, or was that Alfred Hitchcock Presents? 

Answer to above question...Jack Weston.
