Rod Serling and Burgess Meredith (in the first of four TZ roles) bring us a reader's worst nightmare.
A look at how Serling adapted the original short story for TZ: thenightgallery.wordpress.com/2016/07/19/s...

Burgess Meredith is so good in that episode. Just breaks my heart.

I believe it may have been my first as well. Just re-watched it a few months ago!

Definitely one of the most memorable episodes. The man kinda gets his wish, but not how he imagined. It’s definitely made me think about eyesight and things that will remain after the apocalypse.

I talk about that episode in this blog post. Really left an impression!
