My husband loved this particular episode. He recently passed and we bought him a bench to put at the local park. I’m going to get a engraved plaque that says “ Next Stop, Willoughby””….hope he there without a care in the world.❤️💕🙏🏽
As a working class citizen who sometimes feel that he doesn't belong to the fast lane, I sure can relate to this episode. But I can still handle it and luck seems okay for now.. anyways, Willoughby seems a nice place..
If you're over 18, I recommend watching the movie: 'Idiocracy.' It's a fantastic documentary. It's not a future that will be, just a future that might be. ;)
Well if Sterling was that intelligent he wouldn't be promoting cigarette smoking on the set by smoking during taping of his great shows. He must have believed those newspaper ads that 90% of doctors prefer smoking camels and all that propaganda
Well, it was the 1960s, before people knew that was bad. I agree though, every time I'm walking to work, I see this gang of people, swearing their butts off, and smoking cigarettes. I thought we were waiting, for the smoking population, to die off!
While I was a student at UCLA in the 1970s, Rod Serling came to speak on campus and showed two episodes of the twilight zone, including the Willoughby episode. Unforgettable. I feel lucky to have seen him speak.
The episodes where the character escapes a tortured reality to a simpler and much more pleasant time are far-and-away my favorite episodes. God almighty, if only.
In that case, I woujld greatly recommend the movie "Pleasantville", if you havenyt already seen it. But be warned, the subtle and non-verbal social commentary bites like a rabid dog.
I love this episode too, but the notion that earlier times were simpler and more enjoyable than the present are a pleasant fantasy. There was nothing simple or enjoyable about the San Francisco Earthquake, the American Civil War, or the trenches in the Great War. Every generation of Americans has had its challenges, successes, and heartbreaks. Best wishes on our mutual and inescapable futures.
Some might think it's a sad fate for him. But I'd say, reality isn't perfect and it has causing him a lot of emotional stress. It's a good thing he found serenity in the end.
The opening and the voice of Serling just grabs you and pulls you in to the story like you are there yourself. One of the 3 greatest Television shows of all time. There was no limit to what they did every time. I miss those times so much...
I want to someday but not in his circumstances.. but sure love to go there some day as a middleclass working citizen like him who experience stress from time to time.. For me, luck has been okay so far and I can still handle it.
My dad would always say"next stop wiloughby" when we would ride a train for 2 reasons he said. Because it mentions Stamford CT. And because he liked the series . he told me. So , i always think of my dad when this episode comes on❤
Rod Serling was one of a kind . We have no one that is close to describing an episode such as that man . This is one of my favorite episodes of the Twilight Zone .
I can now relate to this Zone, I want off at Willoughby too. I think we all need a happy place to take a break and recharge our batteries. Don't give up Things will get better if we just take a break and get back into the fight later.
@Jack Meyhoffer I guess if by "all" you mean white males. I prefer places where everyone gets to vote and where birth control, dishwashers, vaccines, antibiotics and the NHS exist. Also, decent hairdressers: these aren't blonde hairs coming in up front.
One of the most saddest episodes, I am sure that most of us (no matter where we are living in this planet) can identify ourselves with the protagonist. It's scarier that this episode which is set in the 60s, is still very much relevant today (in our extremely stress filled, fast world). I can seriously empathize with that guy's stress.
this is why TZ still holds up, it's just as relevant if not more so. 'monsters are due on maple street' is my fav prime example of the relevance of today.
One of my favorite episodes..I still remembered it from 1959..thanks for posting it for everyone to watch now. Rod Serling was an amazing writer and producer. elle in oregon
In death. A bit of irony huh? The first time I heard of the phrase "full measure," was in Lincoln's address at the dedication ceremonies at Gettysburg (Lincoln described as "a final resting place.") Rod Serling uses the phrase in "A Stop at Willoughby," which we now know was a funeral home. The story (Willoughby part) takes place in the summer of 1888 with our huckleberry friend, waiting 'round the bend. Such a tranquil and peaceful time Willoughby was. Good thing it was Willoughby.That same summer across the pond in Victorian London, Jack the Ripper was taking a murderous full measure.
It’s an awful feeling to recall a job you hated, and to wonder how TF you put up with it for so long. Paying the bills makes us do things we don’t like, right?
Yeah so true..this covid stuff got me to thinking I'll let the newish truck go back to the bank and get myself an ole hooptie to drive..get myself a nice job in landscaping..get back to nature lol
@@cherieadams77 Most of my loved ones are already in heaven. I'd sure love to join them if fate allows.. but still will try to live my life as luck still permits me to be still okay.
I like his wife's comments:You know what the trouble is with you Gart? You were just born too late. Because you are the kinda guy that would be satisfied with a summer afternoon or an ice wagon being drawn by a horse.But Gart's comment after she left was even more thought provoking. WHERE A MAN CAN LIVE HIS LIFE FULL MEASURE.
When Williams finally does jump from train he is seen flat on his back in a snow bank with THE MOST happy smile on his dead face as if to say" I am at peace now in Willoughby !!!!
If people today knew the quality of television enjoyed by people in this era, they'd immediately disconnect their cable boxes. I only watch old shows offline on my 4 terrabyte HD :)
Poor guy, he was so stressed out he made up a place where he could live a simple life up in his mind. He asked his so called wife for help and she just turned her back on him. I guess it took death for him to get some peace.
Fame hit Rod Serling like a sledgehammer after the live broadcast of his seventy-second script, " Patterns " in 1955. He followed that up with " Requiem for a Heavyweight " in 1956. He detested sponsor interference and launched The Twilight Zone in 1959, maintaining creative control. Many of his episodes, including this one, focused on a man in his mid- thirties driven in his work, something with which Rod obviously identified. " Walking Distance, " with a superlative performance by Gig Young, is my favorite. A man yearning for the peace of simpler times.
This episode related to me personally. I often took that railroad, the New Haven RR. That stop before Willoughby: Stamford? That was my home town. Thank heavens I never felt the urge to jump the tracks, though...
It occurred to me that Rod Serling's style of storytelling might remind people of a synthesis of the styles of Charles Dickens, O. Henry, Jules Verne, H.G. Wells and Stephen King (although King came later and was probably influenced by Serling), resulting in a style that was totally unique. Also, Serling's cinematography style seems to echo the "film noir" genre that flourished during the 1930s and 1940s. This clip especially has that style.
I live in and grew up in Willoughby, OH. I remember hearing some decades ago that Rod Serling had visited here in Willoughby at one time and it had influenced his creation of this episode.
Great episode. Serling had come from the corporate world and knew well its ups and down. Anyone who's worked in a similar environment, when life at work and home is not going well, can definitely relate to this and the appeal of a more simplified world at a slower pace.
The way I look at it is he did not commit suicide. Just in his dream he walked out of the train to so enjoy this beautiful peaceful place in mid summer in snowie November and was killed not intentionally.
Raquel Ramos but the ending the train conductor said that he just jumped off and his body was there next to the funeral home car that said the towns name. So technically he did commit suicide.
red fox Jason Wingreen, the conductor, he was the original voice of Boba Fett in Empire Strikes Back, before George Lucas ruined it with his update. His voice was more sinister, like he wouldn't have taken any crap from Vader.
In Hollywood, Willoughby Ave dead ends at Gower St.. Across Gower on the left is Hollywood Forever Cemetery, on the right is Paramount Studios. For a number of years Rod Serling was a staff writer at Paramount.
my mom used to say this all the time when she cat-sit my kitty, Willow. Willow and I loved it, and now, at age 24, almost 3 years after she passed - I still say it. Whenever I am calling Willow. Nobody else 'gets it', but that's okay. Until I catch up to you at the next stop, Willoughby. ♥️✨🚀
In West LA there is a street named Willoughby Ave. This is the 'hood of the entertainment industry. I'd bet Serling saw a street sign and the story germinated in his mind, right there.
a lot of people would love to be able to escape this world like Garth Williams did not by suicide because that's what he did but to go into a fantasy world where everything is perfect
MegaBojan1993 Would love to think that's true as lost my godson to suicide,plus a lad in my squadron,one fav historical character n one fav actor.So something like this would b so wonderful.
Suzie, I know exactly how you feel because I lost a good friend of mine to suicide too. My friend was the kindest man you could possibly think of, and he never done anything bad to anyone, he even saved a woman from committing suicide. He managed to save her but not himself. He was depressed for years and in the end depression claimed his life. I believe that people who commit suicide because of depression or other torment they had while they were alive don't go to hell as the church teaches us. Past religious teachings may have mentioned suicide as ab unforgivable sin. This belief from the Middle Ages is a perfect control device since people project that whatever they are doing is IT. But think about it. What good earthly parent would never forgive their child, no matter what the transgression? Wouldn’t you expect the Power and Intelligence that created and sustains the cosmos to be at least that loving?
MegaBojan1993 Totally.And my heart goes out to u.Lee was depressed over his parents split n it was his mom who found him n never got over it.I hope she is with him now.And they are all at peace.If ever you want to talk,I am here.
Ya gotta love the artistic license the show took with the crossing bells sound effect; anyone who's ridden the New Haven main line knows there are NO crossings at grade.
The actor of this episode is James Daly. The father of Tim Daley the voice of Superman in the animated series and justice league. And, the father of actress Tyne Daly. She was in the tv show Cagney & Lacey. and movies such as The Enforcer with Clint Eastwood and many more
As usual, they always edit out the main scene leading up to this when his boss is 'Push Push Push Williams, got to push push push'... It's only when viewers see that scene that they can better understand the above aired one. This is why I'm going to film school, cause so many people just don't understand 'set up'...
I had a teacher in jr high school who had been VP of his class at Antioch. He said Rod Serling was President. Never any more details. Teacher's name was Robert Pieh. Interesting fellow. He believed in putting stress on students with the idea they would find sources of strength they never knew they had. It was painful, but it worked. He would force the shyest members of the class to come up front and have a discussion about teen sexuality. That's really hard to do when you're only 15.
My husband loved this particular episode. He recently passed and we bought him a bench to put at the local park. I’m going to get a engraved plaque that says “ Next Stop, Willoughby””….hope he there without a care in the world.❤️💕🙏🏽
Legal. gosto muito desse episódio. Acho que todos nós procuramos um lugar como esse nos nossos sonhos .
what beautiful gesture.
I first watched this as a very young boy, and have loved it for nearly six decades.
As a working class citizen who sometimes feel that he doesn't belong to the fast lane, I sure can relate to this episode. But I can still handle it and luck seems okay for now.. anyways, Willoughby seems a nice place..
Awesome! I think of this getting off the train in Rockville where I live
Serling's narration is so razor sharp, filled with such intelligence. Nobody in television writes like that anymore. Not even close.
We need him back.
If you're over 18, I recommend watching the movie: 'Idiocracy.' It's a fantastic documentary. It's not a future that will be, just a future that might be. ;)
Well if Sterling was that intelligent he wouldn't be promoting cigarette smoking on the set by smoking during taping of his great shows. He must have believed those newspaper ads that 90% of doctors prefer smoking camels and all that propaganda

@@georgeplagianos6487 No. Most men smoked in those days.

TZ’s main theme seems to be “longing”
The name Willoughby is thought to have derived from the writer's driving by "Willoughby Ave." in LA, while writing this episode.
The episode really captures the feeling of the Willoughby, Ohio, that I knew and loved as a child.
The episodes where the character escapes a tortured reality to a simpler and much more pleasant time are far-and-away my favorite episodes.
God almighty, if only.
You said it!
In that case, I woujld greatly recommend the movie "Pleasantville", if you havenyt already seen it. But be warned, the subtle and non-verbal social commentary bites like a rabid dog.
I love this episode too, but the notion that earlier times were simpler and more enjoyable than the present are a pleasant fantasy. There was nothing simple or enjoyable about the San Francisco Earthquake, the American Civil War, or the trenches in the Great War. Every generation of Americans has had its challenges, successes, and heartbreaks. Best wishes on our mutual and inescapable futures.
Yes!!!
Some might think it's a sad fate for him. But I'd say, reality isn't perfect and it has causing him a lot of emotional stress. It's a good thing he found serenity in the end.
The GREATEST of The 156 Twilight Zone Episodes !!!!! Pure Gold !
The opening and the voice of Serling just grabs you and pulls you in to the story like you are there yourself. One of the 3 greatest Television shows of all time. There was no limit to what they did every time. I miss those times so much...
One of my all time favorite twilight zone episodes!! How many of us want to get off at Willoughby now in 2022?!!
For real!!!
I want to someday but not in his circumstances.. but sure love to go there some day as a middleclass working citizen like him who experience stress from time to time..
For me, luck has been okay so far and I can still handle it.
Twilight Zone has been my favorite show of all time. Classic TV at its best!
You said it !!
My favorite. Watched this as a kid in the 60's. Very eerie.
My dad would always say"next stop wiloughby" when we would ride a train for 2 reasons he said. Because it mentions Stamford CT. And because he liked the series . he told me. So , i always think of my dad when this episode comes on❤
That’s funny my cousin and I have said it for many years.
That is so cute 🥺❤️
Rod Serling was one of a kind . We have no one that is close to describing an episode such as that man . This is one of my favorite episodes of the Twilight Zone .
The 1960 era train conductor in this episode was played by Jason Wingreen, who also voiced Boba Fett in the original Star Wars trilogy.
On another post with I think the whole show one of the posters said that it was his uncle and gave some details.
Cool, that’s interesting.
I can now relate to this Zone, I want off at Willoughby too. I think we all need a happy place to take a break and recharge our batteries. Don't give up Things will get better if we just take a break and get back into the fight later.
I would jump off!
Me to I want off now. Lol
@lana lake I hear you friend. Lol
I'm from CT so I ride through these places when I want to go to NY...."Next Stop Is Willoughby"
@Jack Meyhoffer I guess if by "all" you mean white males. I prefer places where everyone gets to vote and where birth control, dishwashers, vaccines, antibiotics and the NHS exist. Also, decent hairdressers: these aren't blonde hairs coming in up front.
Mr Serling was a humanitarian writer, Amazing
We’re all living in the twilight zone now
Maybe in the US, but it's OK to leave. I did, and now live in peace and harmony, in a very affordable country! Look into it!
Where would that be??
@@Slimjim260watch the episode and find out...
You're not wrong.
Today it's not called The Twilight Zone anymore. It's called social media. 😢
"Just a moment ago, someone removed the bolt." Always gets me.
Biden removed the bolt. Thinks he had a better use for it.🤪
Sooner or later, each of us will have a next stop at Willoughby.
scary

Im going to Willoughby on Friday night! I have been looking forward to this for a long time!

I have felt that same pressure when working in a demanding job for twenty years. I still have dreams about the job fifteen years after I retired.

One of the top 10 best episodes.
We all wish we could leave this soul-crushing world behind & spend the rest of eternity in Willoughby.
But it's just a fantasy.
Yes, but Heaven is real

2 serve man, comes in second place.

He couldn't handle "PUSH PUSH PUSH, all the way, all the time, PUSH PUSH PUSH right on down the line"
Who could?
I dont blame the man, I could not take another PUSH, PUSH, PUSH!
Amazing how memory changes things. I don't know the last time I saw this show but remember the actor as being much older. That really changes things.
Reminded me of Mayberry. I could live there too.
It's sort of like Mayberry in the 19th century.
He looks out the window, and there on the platform is Sebastian Cabot, all dressed in white, beckoning to him with a devilish grin on his face!
The way I look at it is he did not commit suicide. Just in his dream he walked out of the train to so enjoy this beautiful peaceful place in mid summer in snowie November and was killed not intentionally.

Willoughby where a man can live out his life in full measure.
Where is the whole movie?
This is just a part of it
This is one of my favorite
I always like this one too.
I love movies that have "mind fuck" or just well write left turn endings and this show was that, every episode
Everyone has had a job like this and can identify with this man.

As usual, they always edit out the main scene leading up to this when his boss is 'Push Push Push Williams, got to push push push'...
It's only when viewers see that scene that they can better understand the above aired one.
This is why I'm going to film school, cause so many people just don't understand 'set up'...
I loved this show
No one has mentioned the virtuoso performance by James Daley.
Just found out recently that he is Tyne and Tim Daly's father.

The conductor has such a friendly face 😊
was a good one

My favorite Twilight Zone
I had a teacher in jr high school who had been VP of his class at Antioch. He said Rod Serling was President. Never any more details. Teacher's name was Robert Pieh. Interesting fellow. He believed in putting stress on students with the idea they would find sources of strength they never knew they had. It was painful, but it worked. He would force the shyest members of the class to come up front and have a discussion about teen sexuality. That's really hard to do when you're only 15.
A guy in the olden days falls asleep on a train and wakes up in the olden olden olden days.
