I saw this one, as well as the rest of Season 4, for the first time just recently. When I initially watched Twilight Zone on Netflix, the fourth season wasn't included. I had heard almost nothing but bad things about the season. But through the first part, I didn't really understand why. There were some top notch episodes in those first 11 or so. But then I hit this one and started to understand. Because I Dream of Genie led into a bunch of episodes of similar quality. Whereas I do not feel Season 4 is without merit, I agree with you fully on this one.
Another exceptional episode, Ant-Man.
Hey Rob....Wow, I was curious if this was one you liked, interesting to hear it's also not a fav. There's still a bunch from season 4 I'm excited about, 'In His Image', 'Printer's Devil', 'Miniature', and especially 'New Exhibit'. I think, 'On Thursday We Leave For Home' was probably my favorites of the fourth season. Anyway, have a good one! 🤜🤛
@@FeverDreamlandTheater Valley of the Shadow was my favorite of the season by a big margin. Printer's Devil was very good as well.
I was like wait?! I Dream of Genie/Twilight Zone crossover? That would've been awesome 😊
😆🤣 Now that would have been interesting. Thanks Fox! 🤜🤛
When I saw your post on Instagram I thought you were gonna be talking about the old sit com with Larry Hagman. Not seen this one but it looks fun. I don’t gravitate to the goofy twilight zones but this seems to be my cup o tea Guvnor. Amazing work as always Anthony
Mr. Miguana! You are right, 'I Dream of Genie', is another classic tv series. I think this episode title and the series title originated from a line in a song from the 1800's, 'Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair" by Stephen Foster. (🤓trivia I came upon while writing this one🤓) LOL, have a good weekend dude & much thanks for popping in. Be well my friend!
Hey man, my fiance has been with you since the beginning, and LOVES your content! She recommended you, and I have to say...
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!
Keep it up, man, and thank you for keeping her chin up through rough times.
Hi BL, thank you for sharing and thanks for the kind words. I wish both you and your fiance all the very best. Be well. 🙏
I had such a fun time ranting on this one with you when we covered it. I love that you mentioned the orgy again. This episode is so dull and padded I wish the orgy would’ve actually happened 🤣. Hell I think they needed more Jack Albertson too. Great review hope you have a nice safe holiday weekend!
Oh I never let a good orgy joke go to waste. 🤣 Wassup Grande, much thanks for watching man. I actually went back and rewatched our chat on this....that was a ton of fun and I can't wait until our next season discussion. I lightened up on this one a little, but it's still not a favorite. Hope you have a nice safe holiday weekend as well bro!
Great video! Twilight Zone is always a fun zone. I liked this one, and the "remake" (or similar plot) that the X-Files did too. If you haven't seen that one, check it out! I think this one is better, but the X-Files episode did have its own charm imho.
Oh boy I was a huge X-Files fan back in the day. Loved it....but have not had a chance to rewatch it in some time. I don't recall the ep. you are referring to, I'll have to check for it though. Thanks for watching WTF Horror & SciFi. Have a good weekend!
Anthony is a top-level dude! Love ya buddy. So glad your channel is doing great. You are a pro and deserve much success! Thanks for always being member of VIG ARMY
Vig ARMY! No doubt! Much thanks & be well man!
Curled up genie shoes are definitely obligatory 😜. Excellent review, Anthony! I always look forward to seeing your Twilight Zone. I personally don't find this episode that bad, but I still consider it one of the "weaker" episodes. But I don't mind comedy in The Twilight Zone. Some worked out well and actually are funny.
Heeey Charles, good to hear you dug this one. I'm surprised to find it last on some people's lists. It's not my fav, but it's also not that bad either. Anyway, thanks as always for popping in, be well!
I like how they spelled genie with a g and not with a j lol
😁 Yup, lots of quirky little bits in this one.
Another great watch Anthony. This TZ ep looks to be a bit all over the place tbh, but as you point out, still worth a watch for the hardcore fans. The dog with a turban on!? lol As for the office birthday gift scene, I have no words but your meme summed it up perfectly haha. Nice one pal, have a good week ahead.
Heeey Greg, lol whenever I can't quite articulate something that's just too goofy, I find a classic meme does the trick. Thanks for checking in man, Be well!
You've gotta talk about A Stop At Willoughby, one of the most haunting episodes of the show.
6:28 You know what I'm reminded of here? An episode of Red Dwarf, "Better than Life", in which Rimmer's insecurities manage to derail not only his fantasies but those of his shipmates. If this episode didn't manage to find the humor as RD did, then it really is a piece of garbage.
So I totally was picturing pink bottles when I read the title, even though I know better haha. Excellent as usual. And I read in a comment it was an Xfiles episode later?? Loved that show! I don't remember this one though....that's cool though!
Same here, I do not recall the XFiles show, though that's another series that ran so long and had a ton of episodes. Thanks for watching Pax, have a great week ahead. : )
This is one that would have worked much better as a half-hour one as some of those daydreams feel like they are just filling time. But the cast does commit to it, and like you said, even the mediocre ones are certainly worth a watch. Great review as always!
Betamax! Thanks for popping by. Yeah the cast here was strong, the story itself needed some streamlining and tweaking. Have a good one!
Dear me. This one doesn’t sound like my cup of tea either. It’s definitely of it’s time.
Wonderful video as always though Anthony!
Ha ha, yup some age a lot better than others. Thanks Lisa!
I've watched this episode but found it quite forgettable so thanks with the great review. I do like James Mulholland he gives me a good laugh and he appeared in The After Hours and Mr Dingle the strong
Forgettable is an appropriate description. The only thing that makes this one a little memorable for me is some of the goofy stuff and the Genie who who do not see enough of. I agree about James Millhollin, wonderful character actor. Thanks for watching & commenting on these Debbie, much appreciated! Have a great day ahead. : )
Hey pick me up one too from Ebay 😅 I haven't watched this one, but even at 2 rusty old genie lamps I'll watch, I'm a sucker for twist endings .. great job Anthony 👏
Hey Cirespeed. You got it man, the bids are in! Thanks for coming by, much appreciated, have a good one! PS - hope you are enjoying all of the Star Wars news popping up now.
@Fever Dreamland Theater oh yeah I am 😊 💯 Thanks bro
I forgot this episode existed
Personally I think " the man in the bottle" was better
I have to rewatch that one again, but as of now I agree. I recall liking that one. Thanks Nigel, have a good one!
I do not think I saw this one. Wow I am so happy for a new Twilight Zone. Nooooo not seeing the genie one time. Ugh. Yes this does not seem like a good one. Thanks so much for sharing. ❤
Heeeey Betty, hope you've been well, thanks for popping by, have a great week ahead. : )
Hey Anthony,
Not my favourite of seasons. As to this episode, I don’t think I finished this one. I can usually just press play, lean back, and enjoy … but not this one. Got to the “leaning back” part, but the “enjoy” element of a relaxing afternoon never came to being…
Good try on putting a positive end to this.
Ha ha, I hear you, well you gave it a shot. Be well Leslie & have a good week ahead man.
No mention of the cringe inducing Carol Burnett episode? Comedy back then was very different. Hell, drama and acting were still following the styles used for stage acting. It wouldn’t be until mid to late 60s for tv and film to showcase the strengths of film.
Hey NCT! I hear you, I wasn't much of a fan of 'Cavender is Coming' either. That's one of the earliest episodes I covered here on the channel. You are right, the acting and performances were quite different back then. Most times I actually love it, it's an interesting snap shot of the era. I prefer the modern style more, but its always interesting to revisit older shows and movies.
....it is funny though. And I like all of season four for what they are. Thanks fever. Btw maybe 4 o'clock next time. I been try to get a stage version of that up for a long time.
4 o'clock! Now that one has a VERY memorable ending as I recall! Thanks for watching Luke! Have a good weekend man.
This reminds me bedazzled or whatever that movie was where the hot chick is the devil and Brendan Frasier is the guy with the wishes. Wouldn't be surprised if this inspired that movie.
Ah yes! Good catch! Bedazzled, I think that movie also featured Elizabeth Hurley.
i luv this episode but the genie should of been the 2nd main characteras a comedy duo i agree on that hopefully someone remakes this episode soon & beautiful reviews as always nicely done since the og twilight zone is my favorite`~

👻👻👍👻
Thanks Rich, much appreciated. Yeah this is a great example of a story that might do well with a remake. Thanks for the watch & comment. Be well!
Bari was a babe, esp as the financial assistant.
How fun that she was in the TZ movie segment with Bart Simpson, which I had on vhs as a bootleg in the early 80s.
Have you deconstructed the movie yet? I'd enjoy seeing that.
Be well. 🤘
Heeey wassup Rez! Cool catch, Nancy Cartwright is a fun Simpsons connection I have to remember. I have watched the movie more than a few times, been trying to think of how to best cover it. Anyway, hope you've been well! Thanks for checking in. Have a good one!
@@FeverDreamlandTheater Just jump in and go for it, my guy. You got this format down. Writing, editing, pacing, editing, narration, and editing.
Your work leaves me wanting for the next one, and that's no small feat.
Besides, it's not like if you screw the pooch, we're gonna take away your mouth or sumthin'...
Th-th-that's all, Ethel.
Who who who? Who were you expecting ? 😅😆😅😆
A comedy episode stretched to an hour.😬 Yikes. Great review Anthony!
I hear you, and because of the way the story plays out with segments, I don't even think it could be trimmed to a shorter length, it just is what it is, lol Thanks for watching Mr. Dan!
Could just use a genie right about now - then again they do always come with a catch! Awesome review as always! :)
Ha ha, the genie wish thing feels very much in line with making a deal with the devil, something always goes wrong. lol Thanks for watching SciFirst, have a good weekend man!
But with the genie there's no deal required to get your wish. You gotta pay for a wish from the Devil but It's free with the genie. The only problems with the genie are you only get 1 wish instead of 3 and it can go the wrong way if you're not specific.
Hey brother. Just rewatched an episode that I'd like to discuss with you. I'm from Trenton NJ. Btw.
Hey wassup Edmon, hope you've been well! Feel free to hit me up here anytime to talk about an episode. Which one did you see?
Nice👍🏻👍🏻😍😍
Thanks!
Also one of my all time favourites ❤ So, so relevant to “transitioning” society we live in today 🫨
