I would have made sure to ask my old self which bank the money was in. Ellison's original story was spread over seven days subtitled Someday, Moanday, Duesday, Woundsday, Thornsday, Freeday, and Shatterday.

Uh you mean Lee Meriweather?

I recommend Dealer's Choice and the series best episode, To See the Invisible Man.

The narrator is Charles Aidman. He was In the TZ episode Little Girl Lost. He played the doctor friend of the father. Note: I'm glad you're watching this series. I was a big fan of and recently bought that DVD set you have. Also, some of these stories are very short. Many times the episodes have 3 stories.

Elison was an established science fiction writer long before his Star Trek script.

I'd want to see Nightcrawlers, Wordplay, Button Button, I of Newton and Gramma. Honestly, I'm rewatching it now and there are a LOT of great episodes. It was a really well done show.

I recommend the short called Night Crawlers.

Great to hear a Meredith Burgess shoutout right away. She was great!

I picked up the DVD set to revisit it and watch with you guys - it looks like Harlan Ellison, from Star Trek but also just a legendary writer, was deeply involved in the show, kind of a showrunner, and wrote many episodes. He's got some commentaries on the set, even. Pretty cool.

Interesting, insightful discussion. I know I am shocked too, no smart ass joke from me.

Was hoping for Night Gallery pilot, stories 2 and 3, both better than story 1... Still a chance?
