I'd like to add Quarantine.
Man is cryogenically frozen and wakes up over 300 years later in a very different post-apocalyptic society.
The story is great, there is a good twist at the end, and we see the protagonist grow as a character and person. -

For me, it is both "Little Boy Lost" and "Dead Woman's Shoes". I like watching Season Hubley on Little Boy Lost and how pretty she looks and I like how dramaticly Helen Mirren changes in Dead Woman's Shoes. She looks and acts so much differently when she is wearing the pair of shoes. Helen Mirren looks so much different before and after she opens the door to walk down the stairs that it is impossible to believe that she is the same woman who was at the thrift store

Old thread but I'm reviving it anyway.
My favorite are:
A Message From Charity - Just brilliant. Beautifully written, and the music is perfect. This episode seriously brought me to tears at the end.
A Little Peace and Quiet - Amazing! She finds an amulet to stop time because she can't deal with her problems, but her problems are always waiting for her when she unfreezes time. So should she get the peace and quiet she so craved and live in the world alone, or die if she decides to unfreeze time?
The Shadow Man - Scary and I loved the twist at the end. Little punk kid deserved it for setting someone else up to be killed. And the bully who he tried to set up to be killed actually showed concern about him, telling him to "run, Danny. Come on!" It would have been funny if the Shadow Man from the end was from under the bully's bed.
Teachers Aide - I liked seeing a possessed Adrienne Barbeau rough up those punks and crush a boom box with her bare hands like it was a grape. -

This was very well done. I had to spoiler myself on part II because I didn't want to watch the end if Charity got burned during the Witch hysteria during her time. And Peter feeling guilty for his part in it. As much as I like the horror themed episodes,(esp. the short "The Elevator" written by Ray Bradbury) this was a nice, touching love story, with two people from two different times, who could communicate in their hearts and minds and that they knew for their sakes they wouldn't be able contact each other anymore. I am curious what got cut out for commercials? This was better than the short "Her Pilgrim Soul".
Are there any other ones like this? I can't stand the commercial cuts on Chiller, but it is what it is.

The commentary on the DVD with the actress who played Charity and the executive producer of the show is very good.

The appeal is that it's VERY different from almost every Twilight Zone episode and it's a twist on time travel that you never hardly see. AND it's a love story.
