The Masks is a great story. I love the Twilight Zone, there are so many wonderful episodes, it would be so hard.
I also love The After Hours with Anne Francis
I put that in a spoiler just in case our younger members haven't seen it and might want to. It's a wonderful discovery in a little 30 minute show.

....love the one with Burgess Meredith as the bibliophile....
Too many to pin point down to one:
Scott mentioned the Burgess Meredith one (Time At Last?)
Agnes Moorehead plays a deaf woman visited by aliens (she thinks)
the one where the woman is given plastic surgery to make her beautiful (Eye Of The Beholder?)
lots and lots more.....

So many good ones! I do like the one with Agnes Morehead, the ending is pretty awesome... Art Carney as Santa Claus.. William Shatner as the paranoid Airline passenger, I love that one because you can see the creature has footies on as he digs at the engine. So many I don't know if I could really pick a favorite.. to serve man is a great,also the miniature, but for creepiness I think the one with Martin Balsam as the caretaker of the wax exhibits was right up there..
Yessh!! Time Enough At Last!
Wayoftheredpanda we discuss this a lot around New Years Eve - there's a marathon. I love so many.
Dana Jean When you say the mask one are you talking about the
the pig face people trying to turn that poor beautiful woman into a pigface?
I also love After Hours.
I like some of the episodes mentioned. I like the Talky Tina doll episode and the lesser-known Shatner episode where he plays a man in a diner who becomes infatuated with a fortune-telling machine at his booth. One of my favorite chill bumps episodes is called "Night Call" about an old woman who is bombarded with mysterious phone calls all day and night and
after asking the operator where the calls are originating, she discovers they're coming from a fallen wire in a cemetery. The wire is laying on her husband's grave.
I've watched a lot of episodes but right now I'm trying to watch every one in order
No, that is the one kingricefan mentioned, eye of the beholder. The Masks were these guys:
The masks is the one with the dying rich man and his family who want his fortune, so he makes them wear ugly masks for the night as a prerequisite to his fortune, and by the the end the masks mold their faces so they become ugly on the inside and out
Nightmare at 20,000 feet is another good classic episode, the acting is real great but the monster costume doesn't really hold up even for then, its to goofy considering monster costumes like "Creature from the black lagoon" and even "Nosferatu" way before then
Oh yes! I like that one too!
Aha! Is that my mother in law there - the happy looking one?No, that is the one kingricefan mentioned, eye of the beholder. The Masks were these guys:

#1 fan (Annie Wilkes cousin) 1st cousin Mom's side
I remember the first episodes I watched were the ones with the wax serial killers and the one where the woman meets herself as a little girl only to uncover her mother's killer
...the writing, staging and acting all made the series what it was....but I will maintain to my dying day-the real genius was Rod Serling.....and his voice.....one of my broadcast heroes.....
The one with Elizabeth Montgomery and Charles Bronson. It is after some type of war, and they are on opposite sides, but end up together.
