| rumor has it that there will be one episode of the Mary Tyler Moore
show braodcast at about 04:00, just to see if anyone is awake.
|
142.2 | | HARE::STAN | | Tue Oct 09 1984 00:20 | 5 |
| I sat through it all. (And there was no Mary Tyler Moore...)
I only wish they would have a marathon of the 1-hour episodes.
There are a large number of them that haven't been shown in
many years.

142.3 | | WARLRD::JELICH | | Wed Oct 10 1984 15:08 | 4 |
| I think a local channel here in Atlanta is going to show more (either a repeat
of the marathon or more 'new' ones). This might just be rumor, though.

142.5 | New Year's day marathon.... | NYTP07::LAM | | Thu Jan 02 1992 14:03 | 7 |
| Did anyone catch the 13 hour Twilight Zone marathon on WPIX channel 11
here in New York? I was able to see only two episodes. Both of which
I'd never seen before. The first one starring a very young Robert
Duvall who falls in love with a miniature in a dollhouse. The second
starred James Whitmore who plays a megalomaniac in charge of a failed
colony on another planet whose people are eventually rescued by a ship
from EArth.

| Oh, I LOVED "The Dollhouse"! I only saw it once (when there was a
local TZ marathon in the Nashua NH area) and even tho "they" decided to
colorize part of it, it was STILL a wonderful episode...one of my
favorites (right up there with "The Invaders" and "Occurrance at Owl
Creek Bridge").

| Re .5: The dollhouse story is "Miniature" (see also .0) - a very nice
episode. The other episode you mention was called something like "We're
Leaving on Thursday," or "Next Thursday We Go Home" (the mind is a
terrible thing to lose); that one I remember seeing on its first run,
back in <mumblety-mumble>...

Close, Beth. It's "On Thursday We Leave for Home".

I recall hearing that _The Dollhouse_ was the only 1/2 hour
TZ that was (even partially) shot in color. (And remember the one
with Agnes Moorehead and the little flying saucer? Half hour with
no dialogue at all! Great acting!)

| re:.9
First, as Beth mentioned, the title is "Miniature". Second, it was
shot completely in black & white. When it was pulled out of limbo
almost 10 years ago, the dollhouse segments were colorized.

142.11 | | NYTP07::LAM | | Fri Jan 03 1992 11:29 | 3 |
| I noticed the colorized segments in "Miniature." Does anyone know why
they colorized just those segments and not the whole show? Have they
colorized any other TZ episodes?

142.12 | Dolls From Space!! | CTHULU::YERAZUNIS | Snowstorm Canoeist | Fri Jan 03 1992 11:31 | 12 |
| Angela Moorehead? little flying saucer? Ohhhh, that goes WAY back!
Is the plot something like "little flying saucer, flown by aliens 4"
tall, crash lands in attic of shack. Shack is defended by grumpy old
woman. Alien weapons are of marginal use against grumpy old woman
(they can burn her skin like a candle flame, but not do much more).
She gets mad and wastes the aliens with common household appliances"
What was the _name_ of that episode??? And you're right, it's great
writing AND great acting.

| Re .11: Presumably, to highlight the enchanted unreality of the
dollhouse scenes, and/or make "real life" drab by contrast. I found
that it was distracting, but then I'm not a fan of the
paint-by-number-on-film contingent...
Re .12: Yes, what an episode that was! Funny thing is that, before the
spacemen showed up, it was doing a bang-up job of depicting squalor,
dejection, and ignorance, to a degree that I hadn't seen done on
television before (and very seldom since)...

| The local cable channel here in Maynard, Mass. runs WPIX, so we managed
to see a good portion of the marathon.
I walked into work yesterday, and changed the personal name for my mail
to...
"From dust to dessert..."
... in honor of one episode, which I had heard of many times, but not seen.

Is this the same Angela Moorehead who use to appear on "Bewitched" as
the mother-in-law?

| Yes, it's Agnes Moorhead, and yes, she was the mother on BEWITCHED.
She was also a member of Orson Welles' Mercury Theater group, and
played in a number of classic films. For example, she plays Charles
Foster Kane's mother in CITIZEN KANE.
