THE TWILIGHT ZONE

[valentina warner]

Today i was watching an episode of 'Twilight zone': i normally have a marathon of the show during the Pre Xmas season and i saw CLORIS LEACHMAN on it along BILLY MUMMY, and thought aloud, "what's Beverly Ann doing there lol?"
I'v also noticed she's been on an episode of another show called 'One step beyond' too, and was wondering how come they never had CHARLOTTE RAE acting on such eerie shows as well? (I think she would have been terrific!).

What do you guys suggest?

PS: i know this had nothing to do with FOL, but when i saw CLORIS i was delighted and the idea crossed my mind....

It's always cool to unexpectedly run across a "Facts" actor in another role.

The 1960s-era episode Cloris did was "It's a Good Life". Then she reprized her role in the 2003 TZ revival, playing the same character 40 years later, in "It's Still a Good Life".

Yes, that was the name of the episode: 'It's a Good Life' and CLORIS LEACHMAN was fantastic in it!!!! (I never knew there was a remake though).....

Charlotte didn't pick horror as a genre of shows or movies to do. The creepiest thing I can remember seeing her in was an episode of Pretty Little Liars where she was a doll shop owner. I am in no way recommending anyone watch this show. It's a waste of time.

Cloris was more of an actress than Broadway performer like Charlotte was. The reason we see Cloris in more is because that was the type of acting career she wanted. I do like both Twilight Zone episodes she did. It was so cool she came back for that second one. It's a sequel episode Valentina so they show you what happened after that 60's episode.

Wow! I should really watch the sequel episode of 'It's a Good Life' indeed: i'd surely love to see what happened with that creepy kid (now a mature/middle aged grown up)!

Is BILLY MUMMY back on the sequel, or is someone else playing him as the evil child?
