The Twilight Zone

Zoomer here.
Never watched any Twilight Zone episode, but I've always been interested.
What would you say are the 5 best episodes to get me started? Original and revival series included.

Walking Distance
The Invaders
The Monsters are Due on Maple Street
The Howling Man
Five Characters in Search of an Exit

It's a Good Life (best, hands-down)
Time Enough to Last (personal fave)
To Serve Man (classic, fucking humanity)
A Most Unusual Camera (precognition sucks)
Eye of the Beholder (watch with gf)

Stick with the original, the revival series' are okay but pale in comparison.

Best episodes off the top of my head are Eye of the Beholder, The Hitch-Hiker, Five Characters in Search of an Exit, The Monsters are Due on Maple Street and Two, but there's lots of great ones throughout. The movie is worth checking out too, if only for the Joe Dante and George Miller segments.

I'd say thats about right, give or take a couple.

best episodes

most iconic episodes

Shit, there's no way to narrow to 5...

Why is it that everytime I start watching something people on here start posting about it? Du du du du du du du du

nightmare at 20,000 feet
time enough at last
will the real martian please stand up
the masks
eye of the beholder

are the only ones I really remember, pretty good though.

'Nick of Time' is my favourite

nice job spoiling every single episode at once with that pic lmao

My new wallpaper.

[countdown to inevitable Peele shilling]

The classics everyone discusses are a fine entry point, since its an anthology you can watch episodes in any order. Here are five episodes I like a lot
>the dummy
>a game of pool
>nick of time
>five characters in search of an exit
>night of the meek
This is all OG. I've never watched the reboots so I can't talk about their quality.

Just watch any five episodes at random with the lights off after you smoke some weed by yourself at night in... The Twilight Zone

Walking Distance is my all time favorite.

The 80's movie is fucking good and a great place to start, I think.

Getting some revival episodes in here:

>The Toys of Caliban
>The Shadow Man
>Her Pilgrim Soul
>Nightcrawlers
>Upgrade

There's also that one with George Costanza (One Night at Mercy) where he fucking kills it.

Just start at episode one. Very few of them aren't good.

>Night of the meek
Absolutely based. I rewatch it every single christmas. Definitely my personal favourite.

>The Monsters are Due on Maple Street

Wasn't there a sequel to this one? Or am I remembering wrong?

woah based and red pilled user

great ep. This was my first episode I ever saw I was 7 years old.

The lack of a happy ending really fucked with my shit. It was the first time any movie or tv show had a bad end.

It had a remake in the 02 revival, wasn't the original of course but it wasn't too bad.

>The Howling Man
Way underrated episode, based John Carradine.

the big tall wish is my fave

Thankfully I'm a librarian with perfect vision.

Adam Scott's a great actor, and the TV, movie and Simpson's version of it are all great so I'm optimistic.

it's the exact same fucking plot.

>racist Adam Scott
Kino incoming

this time the gremlin is a black person

uhhh, the gremlin is actually an economic refugee trying to improve his life by taking american jobs, check your privilege shitlord.

Looks like they're changing it up based on the trailer. Not that it even matters, the TV and movie versions both have the same plot and are both great in different ways. It's almost as if story isn't the only important element of film.

If your job is so easy it can be done by some dumb immigrant who doesn't even speak the language, maybe you weren't that integral in the first place.

All of these are great, I would add "Will The Real Martian Please Stand Up"

The one with the puppet/dummy is Kino as fuck. Same with the books guy.

Nervous Man in a Four Dollar Room is an underrated one.

Take it back to /pol/ for the love of fucking God
