Not a big fan of The Encounter. IMPO - That episode is not for everyone's taste the subject matter was really heavy for it's time too .

So true here bunnywriter & gbone and seriously don't forget to have a few extra pairs of reading glasses for any situation just in case . Always be prepared no matter what . This is definitely an educational episode here too .

The Shelter. Back to back nuclear attack episodes. Lots of these themes. Big deal then, and now.

Imagine putting your life on the line on a pool game. I guess some people will go to great lengths to be famous no matter what . IMPO - It just doesn't seem worth it .

Never been a fan of The 7th is Made Up of Phantoms. No moral to learn. Just an uninteresting time travel story.

Hi everyone!
Well, I was a lurker over at IMDB for a decade or so and always followed along with the boards during the marathons. I always found it interesting to see what other people thought of each episode in comparison to my own opinions. So I liked to follow along and read those opinions -- and learn a lot of new facts -- but I never thought of posting. New Years Eve and day used to be pretty chaotic with gatherings, parties and the like. After a major life event a couple of years ago, I found much more time to spend online.
Then, last year, after all those years of lurking, I finally decided to register and contribute (some of you may remember me as one of a handful of folks posting every upcoming episode in real time with excerpts of each episode including all cast members, etc). Well, we closed down about 3 or 4 threads last year and I had a ball contributing and learning from everyone. Then 2 months later the IMDB forums were gone LOL!
So I figured I'd lurk here, and a few other places, and see how involved the communities were. I registered here and two other places and from what I can tell, this seems like the most active. Or the closest to what I'm used to seeing at the old place. Thing is, it took about 18 hours for my registration to be approved, and subsequently, missed all of last night and today LOL! There's only another 6 hours left (well less since I started typing) and I may hit the sack sometime before midnight. So it looks like I missed this year, but maybe I'll pitch in later on if I can stay awake :-)
Anyway, nice to see one or two familiar usernames here. I doubt anyone will remember me from there since I only started posting last New Years and I deleted my account when Col posted the closing notices, but if you do remember me, feel free to shoot a PM to say hi!
Anyway, up now:
"A Penny For Your Thoughts" Season 2 - Episode 16 February 2, 1961
A timid bank clerk acquires the ability to read other people's minds.
Starring: Dick York, Dan Tobin, Hayden Rorke, June Dayton,

After " To Serve Man " is the remaining TZ Episodes left of this marathon ( I am sorry to see it all end here so soon too ) - A Penny for Your Thoughts - A really good & funny episode but would not want to read other peoples personal thoughts . The Eye of the Beholder - Another awesome storyline & makeup job by the memorable William J. Tuttle . Number Twelve Looks Just Like You - " Life is pretty life is fun I am all and all is one ! " YIKES ! No thank you I like being weird and different here . January 2, 2018 The New Exhibit - These life sized wax reincarnations of 5 historical killers would not put my mind at ease being stored in my basement ( however still an excellent episode and lead memorable actor Martin Balsam ) . Night Call - Another excellent and eerie storyline with memorable actress Gladys Cooper I sometimes back to back this TZ episode on DVD with - Nothing in the Dark . And When the Sky Was Opened - IMPO - Another awesome episode and with one of my top favorite memorable actor - Rod Taylor . I Shot an Arrow Into the Air - Another good episode but trying to steal drinking water from your colleagues is just not cool . The Long Morrow - A real forever tear jerker for me here . IMPO - If only Doug and Sandra had properly discussed their future plans together then everything between them would have been perfect . Spur of the Moment - Another sad storyline of what could have been prevented but doomed to repeat itself . A good storyline episode just the same . Four O’Clock - Another lesson episode of not to meddle in other peoples personal lives it may just come back to haunt you in a most inconvenient way possible .
