I believe it was the final Twilight Zone episode.

The really cool thing about the twilight zone is that it stands the test of time,,
Those episodes are around 65 plus years old…and the stories still have relevance.

It would be very different to say which episode was the best,,, that’s why I just have a top 10 list…
No episode is in any particular order.

The obsolete man bears some resemblance to today in some ways.
For those who have never seen it,,, the story is set, where everything is ran by the government,,, and religion is not allowed…
The librarian ( played by burgess Meredith) is caught reading a bible and is sentenced to death by public execution.. and it’s televised,he gets to choose how he wants to be executed.

He chooses to be blown to pieces…. Just before the bomb is scheduled to go off,, the judge who passed sentence came into the room to talk to burgess…as he tries to leave,,, he finds the door locked and he learns he is trapped inside the room,, and only has minutes before the bomb explodes…

He starts to cry out for help and then invokes the name of GOD to please help him.
( remember , this is being televised) and just seconds before the bomb goes off, he’s rescued.
In the next scene, we see the judge, standing before another judge, and he’s standing trial for what he said,,, and he himself is found guilty.

Definitely in the top five.

Calm down its just a tv show. I liked the 80s remake of that episode. I cant remember the title but the remake of the goblin on the airplane wing was OK also.
