  1. You could have picked any ten and I would agree with you. They are all excellent. Started watching them all again recently. So well written and so many iconic actors who were yet to make their names.

  2. The Twilight Zone is one show that really focuses on strong character & writing to pull off most of its stories’ twists- and it was done without over reliance on special effects.

  3. I’ve listed the season and the episode so you don’t have to figure it out..

  4. Number One is “To Serve Man” really, I mean really!!! Such a campy, over the top piece of utter silliness is number One!!!!!! I agree it has serious camp silliness, comedic points in it’s favour. But come on!
