The episode that really sticks out in my mind was the guy who loved to read, but couldn't enjoy it enough because of work. He wakes up one morning to the realization that he was the only remaining human on earth. He was overjoyed at this development. So he goes to the library and helps himself to several books. At some point in time he somehow steps on his glasses, and his nirvana evaporates to his horror. M

Then there was the episode where a plastic surgeon doctor and his nurse are treating a very disfigured woman, and contemplating if they can possible fix the disfigurement as it was so severe. We are unable to see any of these three people other than their bodies. Then it comes time to remove her bandages only to react in horror as she is even more disfigured after the surgery and recovery then before they had done the surgery. The camera than pans up to her face and she is a good looking woman, and then the camera pans across the faces of the doctor & the nurse and they are gruesome. I think it was called: Beauty in the eyes of the beholder.

One of my favorites too, that was Burgess Meredith playing the part.

Does anyone remember the only TZ episode that was not produced by Rod Serling? "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" a French short film about a Rebel spy about to be hung by Yankee soldiers on a bridge during the Civil War. They spring the trap, the rope breaks and he falls into the river to escape. As he is running away and just about to reach his wife with open arms, the scene suddenly jerks back to him actually being hung.
