I recently started watching the series again on Hulu and am enjoying it very much. It's been a long time since I caught these in syndication and it's cool going through them in the original order.

Anthony, I couldn't do marathons but I've made it thru the first 5 episodes in a couple of months.  I don't understand why I can gobble up TWILIGHT ZONEs five at a time, but NIGHT just hasn't grabbed me like that.

I think it may be because The Twilight Zone is a better show. Let's face it -- some of the best Night Gallery episodes are the ones that Rod Serling wrote. One of my favorite "things" about Night Gallery is - you can see some of the sets from the old Universal Horror Films in some of the episodes.

For instance; in the episode: You Can Come Up Now Mrs. Millikan (with Ozzie & Harriet), look at the staircase. It's the same one you see in The Wolf Man 1941 when Sir John tells his son: "You're not a child Larry and you believe in the superstitions of a Gypsy woman!"

Night Gallery was designed to be Horror & Twilight Zone was more Science Fiction with some Fantasy also.  Twilight Zone had better casting too, although Night Gallery did okay in that respect too.

TZ is certainly a better show. NG is uneven, to say the least. But it has its own charms. Serling had almost no control over NG, which explains the uneven quality. It's a shame his talents weren't better utilized in his last decade or so....and so sad that he had so little time to share his gifts.
