Twilight Zone

Cameron has discovered the old episodes of the Twilight Zone, because of the marathon of episodes on the 4th of July.  Thanks to Hulu, he can now watch them whenever he wants.  Some have definitely scared him - especially the one where everyone has the face of a pig.  Others have been creepy, like the boy who sends everyone into the cornfield or the show entitled, The Mirror.  One even made him a little sad as the main character finally has all the time in the world to read and falls breaking his glasses.  His favorite before tonight was The Howling Man where the devil is set lose, captured and set lose again.

Tonight he and Cal decided to watch one he hadn't seen, The Jeopardy Room.  They waited for Doug to get back from soccer, so he could share in the fun.  Cameron was not disappointed by the episode.  It had a lot of suspense with a twist ending (and no pig faces!). So, Cam has a new favorite, and when he's older we'll let him watch the Mel Gibson movie, Payback, which has a climax scene that is based on this great Twilight Zone scenario.  For now we'll enjoy the fact that one more Heinisch understands the Seinfeld Episode where Jerry says, "I feel like I am in that episode of the Twilight Zone, where I wake up and everyone has changed, but I'm still the same."  When asked which one that was, he smiles and says, "All of them!"
