Exclamation

While The Bicycle Man totally freaked me out as a kid, my choice goes with the teenage bullies. When part 1 was over and Willis ended up in the hospital beat up, I was scared to death!!!

Cool

Put me down for "The Bicycle Man" as well. Excellent (but creepy) performance by Gordon Jump.

I'd have to go with The Bicycle Man also that creeped me out.

The episode where Sam got kidnapped by the guy who's son had died was scary.

I do but I know the "Sam's Missing" episode was intense for me as an 8 year old. I cried when Mr. D found Sam and felt so sorry for the kidnapper's wife. I remember thinking Mr. D. was mean when he wouldn't let the mom touch Sam but as an adult, I understand. The bicycle man as a child, I didn't understand everything behind it especially when Dudley said the man tried to "touch me". I didn't get it at the time.

Shavar (Dudley) Ross went through a similar drama in real life when he was still a little boy.

I strongly commend both himself and Todd for beating the odds, getting past their troubled lives and enjoying the normal life that they are living right now with no drama involved!!

I forgot the title - sorry about that- the two-part episode in which Arnold & Kimberly hitch-hike on their way back from the mall and end up at this guy's place...That one was also very scary ("Strangers in the Night" never sounded so menacing...).
