So I've been going through all the classics/great episodes of Twilight Zone with my kids….basically I've been going through IMDB and any episode that's got a 8.0 rating or higher we watch cause honestly we just don't have the time to watch every one of them.

All of the classics you'd hope and expect to see have that 8.0 rating or higher and obviously there's some slightly lesser know episodes that are still really good that we've seen…..and I've just come across one that bears posting about.

It's called Death's Head Revisited. In all my time I've never seen anyone mention this episode but it's got an 8.1 rating on IMDB…..and holy crap the ending had me in tears….the amount of respect and care towards the subject matter and MEANING behind that episode was some of the best writing for this entire series…..especially Rod Serlings closing narration.

If you haven't watched this episode….watch it!

YouTube TV. Months ago I set it to record any twilight zone episode that was on tv and eventually I got em all. Made it through the first 2 seasons and we're just starting season 3….

Believe Paramount+ has them as well. That's where the most recent reboot was

For any metal heads, the spoken word part of "Intro to Reality" off of Anthrax's Persistence of Time album includes dialogue from this episode. Blew me away when I saw this Twilight Zone episode for the first time... imagine the whole Leo snapping and pointing at the TV meme.

If you're an Anthrax fan and listen to Intro to Reality without rolling it directly into Belly of the Beast....

are you really an Anthrax fan?

You'll have plenty of time, just don't break your glasses.

My personal favorite is "The Obsolete Man" also coincidentally starring Burgess Meredith. "Time Enough at Last" is solid no doubt.

Another good one.

Reminds me of the mass hysteria of recent times.
