Tsk, tsk, TSK....you’ve failed yet again. Come on...try harder;answer my last query, if you are able. If you can’t, then admit your abject lack of intellect and information on this topic.

#77 If you peak behind the window curtains you may find yourself on a film set full of crew members.
It will make a A World of Difference to you.

HUNH?

Just WHAT are you actually saying...that the TWILIGHT ZONE is just actors and actresses and crew and it's all just fiction, as IF I neither know nor accept that fact, but, instead, imagine that it is reality? Or something else?

Since my parents were part of the cast, in the very FIRST full length production of the the Gilbert & Sullivan operetta, THE MIKADO, on NBC, in 1949, and I knew ALL of the members of that cast, extremely well, watched some of the rehearsals, and later on, had dinner with the man who had done ALL of the makeup ( he later went on to be an OSCAR winning makeup artist in Hollywood, as well as a very well known author ) and was allowed to ask him a question, which he was kind enough to answer, though I was a very little child at that time ), I'd say that I've known quite a LOT about the backstage workings of T.V. shows, for the past 75 years. I also know that back then, shows that were done in NYC were filmed in Kinescope and sadly, most were later erased and filmed over.

Add to that, the fact that my parents were friends with a now well known couple who wrote scripts for early T.V. "playhouse" series and then mostly for Hollywood movies.

So please explain what it is that "will make A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE " to me. I'm waiting with bated breath to read your "insightful" reply.

Oh oh...please forgive me my extremely embarrassing obtuse reply and confusion. My only excuse is that though I know all of the original series shows very well, can list many of the cast members ( especially the starring one/s ), the fact is, I hardly know ANY of the names of the episodes! Mention a word ( thimble, doll, airplane [ several different episodes ], train [ at least 2 different episodes ], Adam & Eve, cornfield, etc. ), or a phrase and I can tell you every plot as well as some of the scripted lines therein.

Many thanks for the link! The minute I started reading it, I knew EXACTLY what episode you were referencing.

WOW...am I embarrassed!

I guess that now, I need to learn ALL of the episodes' titles! :-)

No it was not!

This TZ episode aired in 1960 and the main character doesn't know that he is an actor, but believes that the show's character, that he portrays, is REALLY him and that the movie is his REAL life.
