1. The Monsters are Due on Maple Street
2. People Are Alike All Over
3. Eye of the Beholder
4. Maggie
5. I Sing the Body Electric
6. The Howling Man
7. Time Enough At Last
8. Talky Tina
9. In Praise of Pip
10. The Purple Testament

I had to look up the titles of most of the episodes. I could remember the plots but not what they were called. I hope this is okay.

For #5 I would have put “The Lonely” but the one I chose is more famous. I liked “The Lonely” better

#4 is from “One For the Angels” my very favorite episode of TZ.

Oh, heck, I missed the edit window. I saw a comment once that the above mentioned episode is arguably the first time Vietnam was mentioned in a work of televised fiction. Jack Klugmans character refers to it as “a place you’ve probably never heard of, VietNam.”

I’m really surprised this one had so few participants, especially since we could Google the titles. I know TZ is popular with posters.

As I said up thread

[QUOTE=me (correcting my grammar in the process)]  
I like the TZ and could even identify two or three by title, but that’s not enough to play the feud. And I really don’t think we should rely on Google or Wiki for all ten questions (which I would have had to have done in order to play). One or two maybe, but not all ten.
