Since 2020 felt like we are already living in the Twilight Zone, we hardly need to watch the marathon this year. But for those, like me, that need a little tradition to cap off this crazy year, here is the schedule to this year’s SYFY Twilight Zone marathon. It’s two days instead of one this time for an extra dose of creepiness. This year, I will be switching it up a bit and doing the TCM Thin Man Marathon till 8pm on New Year’s Eve. But I will be checking out the episodes I have highlighted, which are my favorites below. Sad to see one of my favs “Stopover In a Quiet Town”, “Nothing In The Dark” and “Ring A Ding Girl” removed from this year’s lineup.
