Noooooo. Night Gallery could have been great, and started out well, but after they yanked creative control from Serling it went downhill fast.

Twilight Zone was best.

Although almost completely forgotten, Boris Karloff's Thriller was my favorite. Scared the heck out of me. I think it had one episode where a guy finds a girl hitch hiking after a car wreck (rainy night, of course), and he gives her a ride home. She's injured, and keeps getting weaker. When he gets to the parent's house she's unconscious, so he runs to the door, and bangs on it. The parents answer, and tell him their daughter was killed years earlier, but every rainy night, someone knocks on their door. At the end, Karloff says, "so if you pick her up on a rainy night, take her home. Take her all the way home."

The Thtiller DVD set is 17 discs (for about $100 retail). Maybe 2 months of cable.

All in how you budget your entertainment dollar (and online DVDs can be had for 20-40% off retail).

As it stands, I can't afford to buy all the series I would like or have the time to watch everything anyway.

I remember it. Great screen name. Wish I had been more creative when I registered.

Thriller popped up in my mind also, but then so did "Alfred Hitchcock Presents."
