BOTH Syfu channel and Decades are having New Years Marathons...2020


https://thenightgallery.wordpress.com/2020/12/15/syfys-2020-2021-new-years-twilight-zone-marathon-schedule/

For those who enjoy it. I got rid of cable years ago so would have to watch the Decades marathon. Which I have to say they dont butcher the episodes as bad as syfy....

reply

6am for syfy. Still prefer the decades marathon.

reply

Wish we had decades. So SyFy for me.

reply

Unfortunately, I don’t have decades as well. I’m sticking with SyFy. I wish I can hop between the two. I hope everyone is enjoying the marathon.

reply

Me too! Would love to see more discussion on the marathon too.

reply

Shannon, I guess what we can do is check the schedule and join in on the convo, lol.

reply

Is there a separate Decades discussion going on? Probably not, but worth an ask.

There was a Twitter TZ discussion last year, but that's not my favorite medium.

reply

I was thinking of going on Twitter, but then again, I don’t want to get caught up on there. I enjoy the forum days. Oh how I miss the IMDB TZ board.

reply

discord?

reply

Actually, discord doesn’t sound too bad! I’ll have to look into that! Great idea, jason88cubs.

reply

i love this site but if we did like a weekly watch it would be cool

reply

Sadly there just arent enough people here at moviechat...more than a couple years ago though.

reply

Yeah, I am trying my best to keep it alive by popping in here and there, but I forget about it sometimes.

reply

keep it going!

reply

I luckily have both so I can go back and forth. Syfy does edit them down by 5 minutes to fit in more commercials. Looks like Syfy is running them in order, which is kinda cool.

reply

Nice to see you here g-bone! You are lucky you have both channels. As much I know I get irritated with the edits and commercials, but there’s something nostalgic about watching it on live tv.

reply

Oh, I totally agree. Just pointing out that the Decades marathon doesn’t butcher them. Just doesn’t seem like anybody watching the Decades one is chatting about it.

reply

I wish I can discuss the decades one with all of you that care tuned into that channel. Would be fun to go back and forth.

reply

I've got it anyway on Prime, but glad the Marathons still go on. Except they don't select the top episodes. A few of my faves: The Howling Man, It's a good life, Nick of Time, Five Characters in Search of an Exit, Will the Real Martian please stand up, Eye of the Beholder.

Its Time enough at last right now.. happy new year

reply

Happy New Year!!!! I hope everyone is safe and having a great time! I’m so full from the meal.

I fell into a food coma, the Hawaiian BBQ got to me! But I’m back managing to stay up. Happy New Year everyone on the East! Here in Cali/West, we are still back in 2020.

reply

Haha....I put decades on and went to sleep at 9. Have to work. So Twilight Zone invaded my dreamscape...

reply

Happy New Year, Galactus! I did the same. I dozed off with TZ on. I have it on SyFy, the editing is horrendous, but it’s so nostalgic to have it on live tv. Albeit, with modern commercials/ads, but something about it on live tv. I would have it on Decades for sure, only if I have the channel.

reply

Happy new year to you as well. Decades is great. It was out of my area for about a year and a half than they brought it back. Just depends on what local stations are available. Hopefully your area will get it soon.

I like the commericals as well. I actually leave the tv on either Decades or Metv most nights. I have a bit of tinnitus and it drowns it out. Plus I like waking up to classic tv...😄

reply

Galactus! Thank you for the wishes, right back at you! I had it before in my area (Sacramento area of Noryhern California), but they took it away a few years ago. Hopefully we can get it back.

Nothing beats waking up to great classic television. I either have TZ, The Outer Limits, Addams Family, or the Munsters on. Be easy my friend and let’s keep this forum going!

reply

Glad to watch it on Netflix every new years to keep the theme alive! No ads and no cuts too!

reply

Yeah. Too bad the forum traffic is gone...

reply

I just turned on the SyFy channel. The constant cuts are awful. I watch it on MeTV and they don’t have as many edits.

reply

Yup metv is better and decades should be the same edits as metv. Since they are owned by the same entity. I would never watch it on syfy. Metv,decades or of course Netflix or dvd.

reply

Is MeTV national or just northeast?

reply

I think its national now but not everyone gets it. Depends on your local stations and if someone picks it up.

reply

Two, does this episode make anyone want to eat chicken? Elizabeth Montgomery is so beautiful! Charles Bronson trying to keep the peace in this episode

reply

Oddly, it makes me want to be able to roam around a deserted town and look into all the stores.

reply

shannon, you know what? It makes me want to do that as well, lol. We kinda are now, given that many areas are closed, somewhat..... “Překrásný“
