I love Twilight Zone. Even tho now it's so dated with mediocre special effects,(I don't think even at the time the special effects (maybe that's not the correct word) were meant to be that good). It was tv.  Yet, the stories are good (and unique) and Rod Serling's narration in the beginning and ending is the perfect touch. And of course the theme is fantastic!!!! As a a teenager I remember having sleepovers and TZ was always on the weekend. We'd always make sure to watch. It was perfect slumber party tv. Recently I watched a couple of my favorites (ie To Serve Man, and the one of the guy who loves to read and ends up in a library....can't think of the title)  TIS

Yes, exactly. I didn't want to give it away. But that was the thing many times about the TZ......that surprise ending. LOL You're not quite sure where it's going and then bam!!!!  TIS
