favorite episodes as a child


I've always loved this series watching them as a girl with my parents in the early 60s. I have my list of favorites, those that have somehow remained in my memory all these years:
The Grim Reaper, The Cheaters, The Hungry Glass and of course - Trio for Terror which gave me nightmares.
Today purchasing the entire DVD set, I especially enjoy the commentaries that are included with many of the episodes - and sometimes I would rather just play them than actually watching the episode by itself. And through the commentaries I have developed a new appreciation for some of the episodes that weren't on my favorite list to begin with:
Man in the Cage, Man in the Middle, Mister George and the list goes on.
One amusing commentary in particular was about Alfred Hitchcock that was already being aired when Thriller began. Hitchcock was very unsettled with this new rival and changed his program from half an hour to a full hour.
Which episodes are your favorites?

oh yes - who could forget 'The Storm'. Commentary is a hoot!
