I watched the beginning of the first one, but I'm going to bed in order to get up at 6:00 for better episodes.
shareMe too. "On Thursday We Leave For Home" is on at six followed by "Ring-A-Ding Girl."
shareOld Ben and Jenny get together? Gross.
shareHas there ever been an episode of television with more Dutch Angles than "The Howling Man"?
shareI think I'm going to emulate Walter Bedecker and call someone a "potato pancake" too.
shareOk, West Coast. Back again. This is sad. D*** you IMDB...
shareThe grandma in "Long Distance Call" is so evil.
shareMissed that one . So far, Robert Redford as Mr. Death has been the most memorable for me. Also liked Lee Marvin as the challenged bounty hunter.
shareI'd follow Robert Redford anywhere!
shareThe Grave always gave me the chills. I still don't think that he was standing in the same place that she was standing while her cloak blew out from the grave.
Her laugh at the end still creeps me out!
The door to Stockton's bomb shelter doesn't like it could withstand Jehovah's Witnesses much less a nuclear blast.
shareGood story though!
shareThe door to Stockton's bomb shelter doesn't like it could withstand Jehovah's Witnesses much less a nuclear blast.
LOL. Well, we know it couldn't withstand being hit with a pipe. Actually, what gets me about the neighbors is the fact that their goal is to make themselves safer, yet they destroy the shelter in the process. Do they think they can put that door back together? share
It's a good episode, flimsy bomb shelter notwithstanding.
As the future Grandpa Joe pointed out, a mob doesn't have a brain.
That laugh, the wind, and that fantastic cast. God, what a great episode!
shareI don't know what they were thinking with that icky ending.
shareWhat episode do you mean?
"Will The Real Martian," "A Kind of Stopwatch," and "Time Enough" all prove that just because a "TZ" starts out light-heartedly doesn't mean it's going to remotely end that way.
shareSorry, The Fugitive
shareWhy was that ending even necessary? Yes, it's a fairy tale, and frogs and other animals often turn into princesses in fairy tales, but in this case it would have been much less squirm-inducing if their relationship had remained purely platonic.
Imagine if Elliot and ET had gone off together and in the epilogue they tied the knot? Or better yet, don't.
McNulty's fate is messed up.
shareExactly. It just wasn't necessary. It just left a bad taste.
shareI rather liked it. It's cruel sure, but it's also an ending I didn't see coming, and for a show as old as "TZ" to catch me off-guard is pretty cool.
It was very much like "Will The Real Martian" and "Time Enough" in that it out of nowhere it just suddenly got very, very grim.
Hello puplover. I remember you as a late straggler on the deserted board from last summer. I'm still watching but am on the east coast. Yes, it is strange that you follow the same schedule that I do even though you are in California! Maybe that could be the summary of an episode.
shareHey TM!!! The strangest thing: I have Sling TV, and for some reason I am getting the East coast schedule. I am now watching the Bard. (Not my fave.) But, Burt Reynolds as Brando!!!
shareI'm watching "The Bard' too. This is my first viewing of the episode, and I like it. Do you remember me from last year?
shareI used to represent the West Coast back in the old boards every now and then. Always behind everybody else, huh? I never minded it. Well, not completely haha.
