Anyone else love this old anthology show? Unlike The Twilight Zone I haven't seen some episodes of this series, but got all seven half hour seasons a while back. I figured I'd start with season 6 since I've seen a lot of season 1 already.

There are some really amazing episodes of that show and Hitchcock was the best host this side of Rod Serling.

I forget the name of the episode, but one of mine is the one where a husband makes his wife into chicken feed. The humor in that show was just so DARK. Especially for 1950's mainstream TV. I love it! |

The chicken one is one of the ones I was thinking of!
I liked the 3 parter, I Killed the Count, Lamb to the Slaughter ranks among Hitchcock's best work, and I forget the name of the episode, but the one where a guy is injured in an auto wreck and they think he's dead, leading to a near autopsy, was a solid episode as well.

I think Lamb To The Slaughter ranks amongst the best single episodes of a TV show ever made. It's that good. It's basically a half hour Hitchcock film. I bought the first five seasons of AHP on DVD, then they stopped putting them out. Go figure. |

I've got about 3 seasons. I think everything is on Hulu+.

He kind of ruined it for fat guys and their silhouettes, since it'll forever get "Wump bump budda bump wump wump" even from people who don't even realize what they are referencing.

I first saw the 80s revival series as a youngster. Didn't see the original series until the early 90s. Great show.
I can't remember episode titles,but one of my faves is about a gambler. He gets in a bet. Where he has to light his lighter 10 times in a row. If he fails he loses a finger. I know this was on both the original and the 80s revival. And was redone as Tarantino's part of Four Rooms.
