    NYE Tradition: The Twilght Zone Marathon

    So who's watching? Who's sitting there w/ their BBP figures and watching this great series?

    And I dunno what the Sci-Fi channel is thinking;they're interrupting the marathon at 8pm for the WWE SmackDown. WTH?

    Next year it's a WWE marathon.
    I think changing their name to SYFY should be a clue. They have been going in the wrong direction for years. I rarely find myself tuning in to that channel for anything anymore.

      Only prob with the marathons is they keep playing the same ones over and over.

      I find it impossible to watch Shat on the plane, or old lady with flying saucer in her attic anymore.

                    I had no idea that there WAS a Twilight Zone marathon on right now...That works out great though - no work tonight, and I'm half buzzed to boot!

                    Hope they show 'One for the Angels' or 'The Lonely'.

                    Just turned it on - 'The Body Electric'. Outstanding episode...I also love the Disney version from the early 80s - 'The Electric Grandmother'.

                    Thanks for the tip-off, this is my favorite program and I hardly ever get to see these! Billy Mumy! lol Little creep...though I think that the 1980 film version was creepier...

                    As to the dolls - They are making a Burgess doll as well as new series?? I had no idea until just recently...are there PICTURES anywhere?

                            I'm watching it but I'd rather be programming my own TZ marathon with the DVD sets....of course that idea got shot down by the rest of the house Obviously SyFy doesn't understand the word "marathon" since they are breaking the run with Smackdpwon. The good thing is though it is playing til 6am Sunday morning after that, whereas normally in the wee hours of the morning they show infomercials.....

                              I don't know the episode name (and I really don't know how you remember them all) but the one where Billy Mumy is an evil child and Cloris Leachman is his mom...I loved how they made a sequel to that episode a few years ago on the last TZ resurrection. And it starred Mumy's actual daughter too. That was pretty cool.
