@SuperInfinityJordan This episode focuses too much on the opportunities we have lost rather than the changes we can make for the future. In this respect, the classic TZ episodes do a much better job. For example, the episode Walking Distance focuses on keeping our head in the future and not in the past (positive). While the ending of this episode seems to imply that Carol still ended up happily raising children, it leaves the viewer with a sense of loss (negative). Not a big fan of the "new" TZ.
@bettypro It's a sad story dang it, I'm not depressed. Never been depressed. This is just a really sad episode and it tweaks my heartstrings thank you very much
@oMercuryx She didn't have an abortion. Kenny is the son or offspring she would have had if she had married her boyfriend that she gave up for the sake of her job and career
Awww so sad.......and hey dont dis red heads or "gingers" cause i know like 2 and ones a guy and ones a girl, and they are a couple of the coolest people i know!......they guy is big and muscular and doesnt let people mess with girls and the girl is one of my coolest friends ever!
I've always loved the old TZ Rod Serling episodes. But I'm starting to like the 80's episodes as well. Especially this one, which has a strong message.
@DoctorLawyerWhatever Oh, it's always supposed to be a choice of one OR the other when you're a woman. But this is the modern age, so screw that attitude.
@DoctorLawyerWhatever Cultural fear of women's independence - these sorts of themes were in all the shows from the 70s and 80s (I remember them well). It also has that 'religious' bias that souls are waiting to be born, so sisters, get to breeding or they'll never be!
@YouHolli Not really... This was more of like a "What would YOU do" episode. I understand why you may come to that conclusion, but think of it this way: One way or another, the protagonist would have lived a happy life, either as a successful business woman, or a loving mother. Any person would be depresses to find out how their life could be, and no matter what, will never truly feel fulfilled. It's like the old saying goes: "The grass is always greener on the other side."
Imagine all the Kennys that never were (cue sad music)... passed on each month, unwanted, only to end up in "feminine supplies" in a landfill. Yeah, really makes you think.
Can someone tell me why she is saying "My god - I have freckles" ? Is it a joke? Because I could laugh at that if she didn't say it so damn incomprehensible. There are no subtitles whatsoever to find on the net to the first season... I'm too tired to look any further for answers. It just doesn't make sense... drives me crazy.
@Opisthotonos Ah, so just because you have freckles and you meet someone that has freckles you're somehow in their family or cousins to them. Didn't know freckles were that unique.
The thing is that she's stating that she has freckles like it's something only she and her relatives have and no other americans. It's bad logic. That's like saying: "Omg the lights are flickering, must be a storm heading this way".
@DukeTwicep ah, blah blah blah, sorry for explaining it to you.. oh, and if your lights are flickering there might actually be a storm heading your way :P better take cover.. freckles aren't unique? ah, so i guess birthmarks aren't unique either, because almost everyone has them, and i guess eyes aren't unique because almost everyone has them, and so on.. i think you need to look up the term "logic".
Unique: 5. "Not typical; unusual: She has a very unique smile. "
Freckles aren't that "unique" no. Which means that she could've said "omg I also have different coloured eyes".
Oh and if lights are flickering, there might also not be a storm heading your way :O. And.. well you are a coward if you cower in the prospect of a storm.
Logic: 4. "Reason or sound judgment, as in utterances or actions". Something you seem to lack. Touché.
@DukeTwicep there's something wrong with your LOGIC there. you can have a unique smile, but smiles aren't unique! SO, you can also have unique freckles, but freckles aren't unique.. that's logic. something YOU seem to lack. a "touché" from you would be very fitting now.
@Opisthotonos Ah you mean that one can have a unique smile(noun), in the way that the mouth is formed. But that it's not unique to smile(verb). And that you can have unique freckles, in the way they are formed and positioned (and quantity, etc.).
But that it's not unique to have freckles, lots of people have them. Which brings us back to my first question which you must have misunderstood:
If freckles aren't unique to her bloodline, how come she sees this as a proof that he is her son?
@DukeTwicep this is literally unbelievable.. okay, im not asking you to mock you, im being dead serious. do you often do this? do you generally have issues with arguments you didn't win in the past or something? im sorry, if you hadn't noticed, but we already did this.. 8 months ago, dude! it's over, okay? i can't imagine any other reason why you would start this again, other than it must've been bothering you. a lot. let's just agree to disagree, okay? im sorry, but im not doing this again.
@Opisthotonos No sorry, I just realized there was a history section in the youtube account where you can see if people have answered some of your comments. Indeed it was 8 months ago, and of course it's bothering me, there is a clear logical fallacy in the statement she is making in this scene. Any sane person would react to a logical fallacy and try to either sort it out or see why it's not a fallacy.
My original question was, why does she react to him having freckles if anyone can have them?
It wasn't an abortion. Gosh, you guys aren't good at watching these.
She's making a choice between her career and staying with boyfriend. She chose her job. That is why the pictures continue to show Kenny with her in the final scene... and only then he disappears once she leaves the apartment with her packed bags. She took a new job and is going somewhere for a while... so she will no longer be with her partner. That is why she was crying and hugging him earlier.
Gosh - I had totally forgotten this episode since I saw it when it was originally aired. Yet I instantly remembered the story and thought it very thoughtful and sad.
This was written in the day when there weren't many options for women who wished to delay starting a family; in vitro fertilization was in it's infancy stage. Many women who postponed pregnancy past middle-age (35) couldn't get pregnant. It was (and in some circumstances today) a major dilemma for some women.
Please. This is from 1985, not the dark ages. 1978 brought the first "test tube baby". Perhaps IVF has now hit a 28% success rate vs 5% in 1985, but that is still below 50%, which aren't super odds per attempt. I see the point of this episode as sometimes you just can't have it all. Nothing wrong with that, we all make individual choices.
@daffodilsrule And your point? ACOG just reported last month that by age 30 only 12% of a woman's eggs still remain viable for fertilization. You obviously did not understand my objective.
sorry. You made me feel very old :-) 1985 was far from 1950, a hundred-fold more choices for women. That was mostly my point--and that even so, having it all isn't always what it is cracked up to be (and the science isn't 100%). Sometimes doing one thing well is better than dabbling. no negativity meant.
It's not really about any morality at all, I guess. It's more the kind of "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"-like question. It's about the momentousness of our descisions and maybe about all those fates we change with them. Even those of the unborn. One could call this an elegy or a meditation about determination and life itself. Since this episode implies that she one day will have a child, this has nothing to do with christian propaganda.
No. A number of these episodes are scary but also heart felt and meaningful. I believe Rod would of liked Little boy lost and a few others which teach you something. He'd be touched of this revival because he died thinking he was a failure. Now the 2000 version of TZ he would of hated like sin.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Rod Serling would not have liked this episode at all. If I have to tell you why, he may've not liked you either. A disappointment. Other New TZ's were all good, just this one I think is shameful.
I can't remember the name of my favourite episode from the 80s..something about a pair of black pumps that caused the woman who wore them to act like the original owner...
I think I now know exactly what this story is about now. The woman is visited by a ghost from the future of the child she will have if she decides not to take up a job where she will be away from home alot and so not have time to bring up a child. She is about to make a decison shortly about whether to take the job or not. After she decides to take it, she meets the boy again and finally realises this is the son she could have had instead of the job.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Well here is an alternative senario. Her boyfriend is angry that she is moving away to start on a new job and will have to leave him. So he pays a boy with similar looks to her when she was young to pretend to be her future son inorder to try to get her to change her mind. Him fading away at the end is simple stage trickering he knows how to do. He also replaces the photos in her flat with ones with the boy airbrushed out as he knows photography too.
I think this episode is supposed to be about the child she never had but could have had, if only she had made a different choice in her life about her job.
The twilight zone is a psychological/horror series that was on tv in the 70's and 80's (or around this time, I think). The episodes are strange and mysterious short stories about hauntings, monsters, time travel, hallucinations etc. It was a great series and definately gave me the spooks!
Actually, no, Kenny is Carol's future child had she accepted her boyfriend's proposal, and Kenny would have been conceived that night. Kenny is the life that Carol would have chose if she had not taken her job.
someone please put "the shadow man" episode up if you have it! It's so good! I think it's from 1987. Another good one is the one with Sherman Hemsley where he's a teache who "sells his soul" by accident for an answer to a math problem!
He said he'd "sell his soul" to get the answer to the problem. He was just using it as a figure of speech. Tthen, at that moment, a mysterious man showed up to make good on the offer.

Rod Serling would not have liked this episode at all. If I have to tell you why, he may've not liked you either. A disappointment. Other New TZ's were all good, just this one I think is shameful.

Very good episode, but I figured it out before they said what was going on.

I think I now know exactly what this story is about now. The woman is visited by a ghost from the future of the child she will have if she decides not to take up a job where she will be away from home alot and so not have time to bring up a child. She is about to make a decison shortly about whether to take the job or not. After she decides to take it, she meets the boy again and finally realises this is the son she could have had instead of the job.

What are you an idiot? You see the word SYNOPSIS before the summary of the episode? You should have known there were spoilers.

Well here is an alternative senario. Her boyfriend is angry that she is moving away to start on a new job and will have to leave him. So he pays a boy with similar looks to her when she was young to pretend to be her future son inorder to try to get her to change her mind. Him fading away at the end is simple stage trickering he knows how to do. He also replaces the photos in her flat with ones with the boy airbrushed out as he knows photography too.

I remember this being on in the same episode as "A Little Peace And Quiet". Watched it stoned. Blew my mind.

I think this episode is supposed to be about the child she never had but could have had, if only she had made a different choice in her life about her job.

Hm, I just started to watch the Twilight Zone. And, I don't get anything about it. Could someone mind explaining please..? :P

The twilight zone is a psychological/horror series that was on tv in the 70's and 80's (or around this time, I think). The episodes are strange and mysterious short stories about hauntings, monsters, time travel, hallucinations etc. It was a great series and definately gave me the spooks!

The episode entitled "Gramma" is my favorite from this series. It's a story by Stephen King. If anyone has it, please post it.

Actually, no, Kenny is Carol's future child had she accepted her boyfriend's proposal, and Kenny would have been conceived that night. Kenny is the life that Carol would have chose if she had not taken her job.

someone please put "the shadow man" episode up if you have it! It's so good! I think it's from 1987. Another good one is the one with Sherman Hemsley where he's a teache who "sells his soul" by accident for an answer to a math problem!

that stuipid why did he do that
shadowony 2 years ago
He said he'd "sell his soul" to get the answer to the problem. He was just using it as a figure of speech. Tthen, at that moment, a mysterious man showed up to make good on the offer.
