Well when I first started watching the Twilight Zone in the summer of 2009 from a SyFy channel marathon; for the first three days they showed 30 minutes episodes and then on the fourth day they showed the one hour episodes and I remember being weirded out by the Twilight Zone all of a sudden having one hour episodes and then year’s later discovering all the one hour episodes were all season four episodes and all these years I been scratching my head, wondering why all the season four episodes were one hour long while all the other episodes from seasons 1,2,3 & 5 are all 30 minutes long. And what makes it equally weird is back when the Twilight Zone was available to watch on Netflix, it had every season available, except season four? Why? Did it have to do with the fact season four had one hour episodes, did it play a part in why season four was never available to watch on Netflix?

This one terrified me as a kid. Just the thought of someone's life not being real and finding out they're a murderous robot was creepy.

I’m so happy Rod Serling still did the narrations

This was an interesting start to the fourth season. In any other circumstance, Alan being replaced by Walter would be a negative thing, but it turns out to be positive, since Walter won't experience homicidal urges, or try to hurt Jessica.

12:23 My sole gripe with the season 4 Zone, and all of the Outer Limits, was the effect of the one hour frame on the story pace. Things being unnecessarily drawn out in order to fill the hour. The half hour fit Zone so much better and I believe could have made a lot of Limits stories even better.

I've done the calculations. The original series consisted of 156 episodes. Twilight-Tober Zone has been going since 2020, making this the fourth year of it. Five Octobers, one episode a day, gets you to 155. I can't imagine that Channel Awesome would do a sixth year consisting of a single episode, so... I think you're correct. I would expect that next year will be the final year, and we'll get a bonus installment at some point next October to account for that last episode. Maybe the last two episodes next Halloween?

I have a book about the TZ which states that it was broadcast in late-night reruns in the summer of 1965, and I realized that's when I first saw these episodes, including some of the hour-long ones. This one, "The Thirty Fathom Grave", and "The New Exhibit" *scared the hell out of me* that summer. I would have been seven that summer.

This series is by far my favorite from Channel Awesome.

Wow that robot effect is super neat-o!

I rewatched this episode last night since it’s the one season that’s not very memorable to me, but not in a bad way. Of all 5 original seasons, season 4 was one I only watched once, same with Season 5. 1-3 I binged on multiple occasions, and I can recall which episodes are from those. But rewatching this episode, reminded me that there are some hidden gems in this rather vast departure from its traditional form from previous seasons. And I gotta say, this episode, as well as The 30 Fathom Grave, He’s Alive, and Printer’s Devil, were the few I enjoyed the most. I can’t wait for those ones to be reviewed, and I hope the same positive things can be said about them as well.

RIP Charles Beaumont. And credit to everyone who made this great episode work.

The scene of him peeling back his skin revealing the circuitry underneath reminded me of a similar scene from Terminator where Arnold does the same thing. Also I've seen similar stories like this of a robot that looks human not knowing they're a robot. I don't think I've ever seen this story done with the robot having a romantic love interest with a real person though which adds a bit more to the twist at the end I wasn't expecting.

To think the entirety of Season 4 will be covered all throughout October! Hang onto your hats though folks! Cause towards the end of October we will be on Season 5 and finally get to see the review of one of the series’ most famous and oft-remembered episodes: “Terror at 20,000 Feet!”

Even if I didn't love that episode before, John Lithgow and William Shatner coming together to joke about it would have won me over anyway.

I liked the longer episodes. I 100% agree that they were not as good as the half hour episodes, for the most part, but it was so fun to get an entire hour in the Twilight zone.

Walter ironically this has a lot of similarities with the Batman Animated Series episode 'His Silicone Soul'

I quite like "In His Image". One thing about it that ought to be considered more is that violent opening subway scene, which is one of the most shocking, not only for _Twilight Zone,_ but for all television at the time. It still packs a wallop. And that led me to speculation about openings in general. All the focus tends to be on the twist or otherwise memorable endings, but along with in "In His Image", here are a few _TZ_ openings that grabbed me from the start: * "The Howling Man" -- It's so Gothic, so surreal, as David Ellington breaks the fourth wall to invite us into his nightmare, one that starts on a stormy night at a spooky, isolated castle. The Dutch angles of the camera lend to his confusion & disorientation...and then he hears the howling! * "Living Doll" -- Erich Streator is perturbed when his wife buys an expensive "talking" doll for his stepdaughter that says "My name is Talky Tina and I love you very much". But Erich hurls the doll across the room and it slams against a wall. When, he picks it up, the doll changes its message: "My name is Talky Tina, and I don't think I like you." From there, antagonism by the doll escalates to a murderous conclusion, but it's that first totally unexpected phrase in the first scene that sets the action. * "A World of Difference'' -- Successful businessman Arthur Curtis is in his office at the beginning of a seemingly normal workday--normal, that is, until he hears someone yell "Cut!", and turns to discover one wall has disappeared, showing a director and crew on a soundstage. This is one of the great "didn't see that one coming" moments in television history. It doesn't end there. Curtis is then told that he isn't Arthur Curtis, but rather an actor named Gerald Raigan, and that "Arthur Curtis" is just a character he's been playing. He protests that he _is_ Curtis, yet he can find no evidence that the businessman really exists. * "Twenty-Two" -- A creepy vibe runs throughout this episode, but nothing surpasses the terrifying dream that opens it, as Liz Powell, a hospital patient, follows a mysterious nurse to an elevator, then down to the basement, where the patient goes down the hallway to a room she saw the nurse enter. Just as reaches the door of what turns out to be the hospital's morgue, and without warning, the nurse suddenly reappears, eerily inviting her in with the words, "Room for one more, honey." Liz screams, and runs away, in what turns out to be the central part of a recurring dream. * "The Dummy" -- This one might require multiple viewings, as it involves a foreshadowing of “the old switcheroo” ending. At the start we see ventriloquist Jerry Etherson and his dummy, "Willie" performing in a nightclub. During the act, the two switch roles, with Willie becoming the ventriloquist and Jerry serving as the dummy. Jerry's face seems devoid of expressions, much the same as one would expect from a dummy. (Oh, and while leaving the stage, Willie bites Jerry's hand, leaving marks!)

I really liked this episode, however, I really can't wait for you to review one of my top five favorite episodes this season 'On Thursday, we leave for home '

Batman: Could it be it had a soul, Alfred ? A soul of silicon, but a soul nonetheless.

I always wondered if the circuitry under his arm was an inspiration for Data in Star Trek TNG.

Would be chilling if the robot was the one who survived.

5:29 Ouch! That look like it hurt... That car actually hit his leg.

I wonder if they chose the name "Talbot" as a Wolfman homage, implying that Alan is is not what he seems.

This was actually the version of the opening that was seen in Tower of Terror the ride.

You guys always make this time of day better! 🖤🖤🖤🧡🧡🧡

Did this make anyone else think of the Futurama episode "Rebirth," where Leela dies in an accident and Fry recreates her as a robot? 🤔

So, a synth story. Sweet.

George Grizzard does marvelously in this and his performance(s) make this one of my favorite episodes.

Man what a change up for the new season . 4:40 wasn't expecting that

I can’t think of an hour long so that I really like. That all definitely drag.

Poor Alan guess in the end you can say he had a "Heart of Steel" and "Silicon Soul" XD

I think the main problem with making it into an hour was a mistake because a short story relies on tension and stretching that tension over an hour instead of a half-hour, an hour can have a profound difference

@57highland

Exactly. Even some of the half hour episodes dragged a little due to their having a thin concept which was then overly explained with excessive dialogue.

*Once, I got stuck in the Twilight-Tember Zone - which isn't quite as scary and weird as the Twilight-Tober Zone. Even so, I'll never forget it.*

I watched this for the first time yesterday. I liked it

So, in a way, this episode is to you what It's A Good Life is to me.

2:48 So the most famous intro of the show, comes from Season 4 ?

Imagine....NO CGI in those days and how they pulled off the doubles is incredible. ROD SERLING Baby !!!😁👍🏻

I love this The Twilight Zone episode!

Never got the feeling it was too long this episode. The only critique, which im sure many others have made, is that i would have liked to not know which one had won in the end

Not a bad start to season 4. What stood out for me in this was the very beginning with Roger pushing the elderly woman onto the train tracks and the cemetery scene

The part that gets me, and something Serling fixes when he does “Night Gallery” and when Twilight Zone” is revived in the 80: if CBS wants an hour of Twilight Zone, put two half-hour stories in a single hour episode. This is such a good idea, even Alfred Hitchcock did it.

I preferred the original short form content. Although the hour long ones are adequate I suppose🙀

why does "Antioch college" sound like a great name for ANOTHER setting to explore the nature of Eldrich Horror? it's even in OHIO!

One thing I liked about this episode is that they made it as realistic as they could possibly get given the limited technology at the time. He couldn't do it all by himself, he needed the world's greatest scientific minds, and even with all that he needed luck.

I wonder if that scene with the robot stripping it's skin was the the Inspiration of the T2 scene

I hope to see future use of the “stop it, Walter” clip lol

"Robutt" has, for as long as I can remember been my favorite way to say "robot". It's not the way I say robot, I don't think it's the right way to say robot, but when I wanna joke about some slob like Paulie from Rocky talking about a robot, it's always "robutt".

This was a solid episode in an up and down season.

I love season 4. I'd put it above seasons 3 and 5 personally.

I like to think that Alan's last words were to ask Walter to take care of Jessica.

Enjoying Spooktober🦇🧛🏻‍♀👻🙀

That "fine and dandy" caught me very off guard.

The ending twist reminds me of the Nightmare Time story 'Forever And Always'

Here’s the thing I’m actually going through these episodes right now. Did the Ep Mute last night. So far I haven’t come across any that are terrible but at the same time I have not come across any that are great either. They’re all just kind of in the middle if you will. Like Walter says here it feels like it goes on longer then it needed to be and could have been done and a half the time and that’s the biggest feeling of all of them the drag on longer than they should . Maybe it would’ve been better instead of having our long episodes with one long story they could’ve had our long episode with two stories back to back. I think they do that in the 80s version. I’m not sure I’m gonna watch that as soon as I finish the series up. One, but this one was OK I didn’t do the mystery but near the end I was just kind of looking at my watch and waiting for the end. Not terrible, but not impressive . Also, Walter never stop with the robot joke. I love that joke.

I’ve seen this episode of the Twilight Zone in reruns on the syfy channel once, and it’s not bad though🙂💁🏻‍♂.

Oh boy. I'm still in season 4 myself, and I agree that the hour long episodes feel way too dragged out so far. I like this one, though. It surprised me that they didn't go with the whole "creation overcomes the creator" trope. They actually had the human take the robot's place instead. I found that to be impressively unexpected.

Season 4 is my favorite. I actually like the hour long episodes 😂

great videos as always - but what's with the random punching in on the footage? is this something you have to do now to avoid copyright claims?

And a new Intro

This almost feels like a play on Frankenstein.

It could've been the move to Thursday night from what we watched Friday at 8pm on CBS, that makes the hour long shows not spark my memory like the first three season. ...

This story could be turned into a feature length movie.

That car hit came so close!

There's just one thing about this one that bothers me. Twilight Zone is usually about things catching up to people whether they're bad people or not. So you'd think that the robot actually killing someone would make things bad for Walter by the end. So I wish that part weren't in the story (even though I admit it's a very good spooky scene).

Once again, I disagree with a lot of Zoners. While yes, some of the episodes get stretched out too far, others are some of my favorites and fit the hour format (TBH, some of the previous and subsequent season episodes could have benefited from this format as well). This episode is one that works well with the format. It almost reminds me more of an Outer Limits than a Zone specifically the OL episode, "Glitch. Alan is a great protagonist and his confision is clearly felt. I think his ending is more bittersweet because the character that we saw whose struggle is felt is gone and has been replaced. 😮 7:24-t took me longer than necessary to realize what you did there. "Fine and dandy." 13:34-This is going to be this year's Forbidden Planet isn't it? Oh well, drink up!🥂🍺

I don't mind season 4 being hour long. A lot of the episodes do feel better because of it. But yeah, when I binged the series it was all on Hulu, except season 4 which I found on Netflix. Or was it the other way around.

You can't just gloss over the nonconsensual aspect of the switch for Margaret. She was tricked, and there's horror in that undiscovered deception.

So it's a human being vs a mechanical double episode

This was a well-acted episode, but it had some major plot holes. First, the duping of Jessica continues without any consequences since Water seamlessly poses as Alan in the end. Next, the woman whom Alan viciously murdered in the train station received no justice.

I sayed it before but I like season 4 and the longer episode idea is interesting

Very cool 😎

None of the hour long season four episodes are outright successes for me. Some come close, but they usually seem way too stretched out (The Parallel), or if not, the pacing and tone is so altered it doesn’t feel like a Twilight Zone episode anymore (this one). I still enjoy them, and it’s probably good they experimented a little before going back to tried and true patterns, but they just never hit quite right.

Imagine taking his class and his lectures are how he narrates

I seen this one on tv before but i didn’t know it was season four Is whole of season four recommended or just episodes that are good

So much to tell if it’s a robot Talbot

Like that cartoon where a scientist is working on a blackboard full of calculations, with a big empty space in the middle saying “”And then a miracle happens”,-In even the most inoffensively average S4 episodes (like this one), you can see the point where what would normally be a nice, average inconsequential half-hour S5 non-Serling story starts to break at the ten or fifteen minute mark, and spins its wheels for another 20 wandering around in other directions, just to fill time before coming back to the last ten to build the Big Climax. And that’s just the GOOD episodes…. 😰

4:04

Wasn’t there a movie called that

How can a woman get engaged to a man she only knew for 4 days?! And she doesn't even know that he murdered an old woman before he came to her house!
