For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio
Which Shater? there is more than one. there is the airplane one, and then there is the coin operated fortune teller one. There might even be more, i am unsure.

That type of plot sounds more like Twightlight Zone than Outer Limits. In fact, I do think I might remember it a bit....
Have seen to much Zone as is.

Talking Tina - the doll who kills everyone who owns her.
The one where a woman undergoes plastic surgery so that she looks like everyone else. Turns out that she is beautiful in a world full of ugly people and she doesn't want to be discriminated against.
The one where the little boy says "I wish you away" to everyone that he doesn't like or who displeases him in some way. He wishes them away into the tv.
I love Twilight Zone, especially the old ones. The newer series lacks that special touch that Serling gave to the original series.

How about the one where the uncle has his relatives wear masks? When the uncle dies, they take off the masks, only to discover that their faces are all permanently disfigured.
'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"

I still like the first episode of the series: A guy finds himself alone in a town, and getting paraniod that someone is watching him. As he runs around, he gets more insane. Finally he pushes a street crossing button, and it turns out he is actually an astronaut undergoing isolation training, and has been alone for 3 weeks, and he pushed the panic button. It was very interesting to watch.

Actually, there is another episode that just blows my mind. It's the U-boat one. During WW2, a German man awakes on a ship with no idea how he got there, or what is going on. All he has is the feeling that the ship is being followed by a submarine. He also is being reminded of the time 1:15 am. Everyone thinks he is crazy. At 1:15am, a U-boat torpedoes the ship, and machine-guns all the survivors. including the German. Onboard the U-boat, some of the crew say that they may be dammed for their actions, but the captain scoffs at them. The captian is the same German from the begining.

Actually, the point of that one is that the woman is ugly, since she looks so abnormal compared to everyone else ("ugly" being what is normal and thus beautiful)

Probably the most memorbale was one i saw only when i was little, where aliens came, claiming they were here to "Serve man"... they were there to serve man alright... serve them for dinner!
gotta love the alien ones! Also the space travel one where the human colony ship left to another planet in the technilogically advanced age of 1991!
