Yes, this is how I have been spending most of 4:00 on. I have work at 5:00am tomorrow, so I am in for the night. Is anybody here watching the marathon as well?

My personal favs (spoilers included):
(I don't know episode titles)

--A ship crashlands (on what is thought to be a distant planet, but it turns out it's Earth). The ships commander (Adam) meets a strange woman who does not speak his language. Her name is Eve. AMAZING!

--The man who survives the end of the world, only to break his glasses.

--Mr. Beevis, a cheery man, meets his guardian angel who helps him to become more successful, only to realize that he is better off the way he was.

--Talking Tina.

--A bus breaks down, and the passengers spend their time waiting in a diner. In the meantime, strange things start happeneing, and they come to the conclusion that someone amongst them is from another planet.

--Same scenario as above, except the strange happenings occur on Maple Street, amongst a neighborhood.

----so many more, what a show!

    Very nice.

    Refresh my memory, is that episode where they go through turbulence, and end up not being able to find the airport, but instead look down to see that they have traveled back in time?

    I remember a second episode taking place on an airplane... ??

    Haha I caught a couple of episodes today too - the one with the camera that takes pictures of the future, and the gangster guy who ends up in 'heaven' and then realizes it was hell.

    Can't sleep...I love marathons.
    Did you guys see the one when it is all alien looking people and the one woman goes through the facelift and when they unwrap her they all freak out and then we see that she is this beautiful blond haired woman?
    :p

    You might be thinking of the William Shatner episode that got used in the 1980's movie with John Lithgow as the passenger......he sees a gremlin out on the wing of a plane during a storm.

    You know, I don't think I've ever seen that one. I only remember it being mimicked in an episode of The Simpsons. (Bart sees a gremlin on the side of the school bus).

    So I think I am still thinking of another one... maybe... I think it was along the lines of the plane lands in another time (of course). They get out, but it's not the right place/country/time, ... something... but not as far back as dinosaurs...

    the plane in the aforementioned episode we were chatting about never lands- it just toggled in and out of time, as the turbines ran lower and lower on fuel- they couldnt get back to their time,....

    Wait... the episode where they look down to see dinosaurs, right? In that one the plane never lands, right? Good God, I think I'm confused. You're right, it just ends with them realizing that they were that far back in time.

    Ok... how about some of these:

    The episode where:
    --The Grandfather is on his death bed, and makes his family where masks to show their true character.
    --(Someone mentioned earlier in here): The camera that takes a picture of the future.
    --The guy from the Odd Couple (I think) is on a space mission with two other astronauts, and they see themselves and their ship crashed on the martian planet.
    --Where the woman, Nan, is driving to California, and sees a hitchiker along the way. No matter how fast, or how long she drove for, he was always there waiting.
    --The old woman is certain she sees "Mr. Death" and decides to never leave, or let anyone in her house. Sure enough, "Death" tricks her into letting him in.

  • "An Obsolete Man" with Bergess Meredith and the one where (a very young) Robert Redford plays Death were both on. 2 of my favorites.
