⏰ Once Upon a Time - Buster Keaton delivers a brilliant performance in his only Twilight Zone appearance as Woodrow Mulligan, a janitor in 1890 who becomes fed up with the noise and chaos of his era. Using a mysterious time helmet, he travels forward to 1962, expecting to find a quieter, more peaceful world. Instead, he discovers that the future is even more frantic and overwhelming than his own time. This charming episode combines Keaton's legendary physical comedy with Rod Serling's thoughtful commentary on progress and the grass-is-always-greener mentality.

πŸ‘½ The Fugitive - J. Pat O'Malley stars as Old Ben, a mysterious elderly man with extraordinary powers who has been hiding on Earth while caring for young Jenny (Susan Gordon).
