Can you get through this quiz without leaving The Twilight Zone?

Is your next stop The Twilight Zone?

 
While The Twilight Zone wasn't the first anthology series, it's certainly one of the greatest. Thought-provoking and creepy, since the series premiered in 1959, there have been dozens of anthology series that followed in its spooky footsteps. 

Let's see if you can get through this quiz without leaving the dimension not only of sight and sound, but of mind. We've supplied quick synopses of episodes from IMDb, and you have to guess if it's a Twilight Zone episode or the plot to another anthology series. Be careful, though! You'll quickly see how many modern shows and ones that pre-date The Twilight Zone sound just like it.

Question #10, that's from the original Outer Limits, not One Step Beyond. I own both TV series on DVDs, I remember this one with Leonard Nimoy, Howard Da Silva

10/10.
Not the easiest.
10/10. It was easy, once you realize that the answers alternated I also did know the answers. If they "sounded" one way or the other, that also helped me to pick the right answer. Didn't METV do a similar quiz? "Can you answer the questions without leaving wherever." I want another TZ quiz, or was it TAGS?

9/10! Should have been perfect, but I have an excuse! Question 7 sorta sounds like "Young Man's Fancy", where a fiancée turns out to be too much of a "mama's boy". Also, except for the service reference, Question 2 could have been "Night Call"!

Yes, that question tripped me up as well.

That's true about #7, although I was familiar with the Hitchcock episode, so I got that one right. I also agree about #2, which was why I got that one wrong.
