What episode of the Twilight Zone featured black actors?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Not to my knowledge. A Black actor- and a celebrated one at that Sidney Poitier played the civilian reporter-observer, and coincidentally the sole survivor of the counterattack by the Soviet Sub, in the movie The Bedford Incident. All of the Naval characters died in the attack by the submarine. This was not Twilight Zone but was heavy psychological drama- Poitier was a Black actor. Few television programs had Black characters in the now salad days ( fifties and sixties) of TV. They were rare ( outside of Ball players , who will not be considered actors as they are athletes, not acting players.).

I believe it is a tie:

Burgess Meredith appeared in 4 episodes: Time enough at Last, The obsolete man, printers devil, and mr. dingle the strong.

Jack Klugman also appeared in 4: In Praise of pip, a game of pool, death ship and a passage for trumpet

Additionally, even though he is a much lesser known actor, Cyril Delevanti appeared in 4 episodes, Passage on the Lady Anne, A Piano in the House, The Silence, and A Penny for Your Thoughts. He did not have a leading role in any of those, however. But, several other much lesser known actors appeared in more than 4 episodes. Robert McCord appeared in 10, Jay Overholts appeared in 8, Vaughn Taylor appeared in 5.

Did anyone ever die on the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror in Disneyland?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No one has died while riding the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at any of the Disney theme parks.

However, a 16-year-old girl was hospitalized in 2005 after riding the Tower of Terror in Disney's Hollywood Studios. She suffered a stroke (and two heart attacks while hospitalized). Inspectors from Disney and the state of Florida determined there was no ride malfunction. Despite the girl's claims that her pain had begun before riding, her family is suing the Walt Disney Company for $15,000.

What was the best ever episode of The Twilight Zone?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This is subjective, of course, but fan favorite lists often include "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet", "Time Enough at Last", "The Hitch-Hiker", "Kick the Can", "The Invaders", "It's a Good Life", "To Serve Man", "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street", "The Eye of the Beholder" and "The After Hours". Most of these stories have been parodied often in shows like The Simpsons and have even been remade in subsequent The Twilight Zone series and films, a testimony to their enduring place in popular culture.

Fan suggestions:

  • I like the one where the mannequins come to life- really creepy! ("The After Hours")
  • There's something about "Time Enough at Last" that makes me unable to refuse watching the episode when I see it's on cable.

Why was the Twilight Zone discontinued?

Asked by Tomboy1229

The plots had become somewhat predictable and repetitive. One critic pointed out that it had fallen into formula writing. Also, Rod Serling was admittedly burned out from five years of the program, and he wanted to take a rest. Also they made a new one with Forest Whitaker as a host.

Where exactly is the Hollywood Twilight Zone Tower of Terror in Disneyland?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's a ride.

You'll go up high in a building that looks like the tower from the movie, and then you'll reach the elevator(s).

When you get in, you'll sit down in a chair and be strapped down very well.

After the ride starts, it'll drop very fast for a little bit; then go back up. Then it'll drop again; then go back up.

After a little while, it'll drop very fast and for a long distance, which is the highlight of the ride.

If you weren't strapped down in this ride, you'd go flying into the air and hit the ceiling.

It's not good for the faint of heart, or anyone with health issues.

It's a lot of fun and kind of scary at first (:

I'm fairly sure that wasn't a twilight zone episode. No, it wasn't. It was an episode of Night Gallery called "The Earwig." Oops. My bad. It was an episode of Night Gallery called "The Caterpillar/Little Girl Lost."

Is the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at Disneyland based on a real episode of The Twilight Zone?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When it first opened, the ride was predictable. Each ride was the same. They have changed it to a random generated ride so no two rides are the same. The height of the drops and the number of drops change with each ride. There is even one sequence where you get to the bottom, you think you are done, and then it zooms you up and drops you one more time. The restraint system has also changed since it was opened.

Which Twilight Zone episodes did Rod Serling write?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

"I Sing the Body Electric" was the only episode written by Ray Bradbury of the original Twilight Zone in the 1960's. Another Bradbury script called "Here There Be Tygers," was turned down because it was too expensive to film, but it was later done as an episode for The Ray Bradbury Theater in 1990.

Do dolphins live in the sunlit zone the twilight zone the sunless zone or the dark zone?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

They spend almost all of their time there, some dolphins spend their lives in 7 feet of water. The deepest dive by a dolphin was done by a dolphin named Tuffy, who was trained by the U.S. Navy and dived 990 feet (300 meters). The sunlit zone ends after 656 feet (200 meters).

Overall, dolphins can dive deep, but rarely do.

It depends on where you are. Here in my city, it comes on at midnight and 12:30.However, as of September of 2009, the nationally broadcast network Syfy (formerly the Sci-Fi Channel) continues to air episodes as part of the Cable in the Classroom program on the weekends between 5AM and 6AM EST. The channel also uses the series as a filler between their other programming, at no set time.
