From the SETI thread a fun memory kicked back in my head: the twilight zone TV show.

This thread will be us trying to jog back some memories into each other minds.

Here is the first three I remember:

2 human space explorer guys land on a planet/moon to discover very small inhabitants and one of the explorer gets crazy and want to stay when the small people see him as a god and erect a gigantic (compare to them size) statue of him.

1 very old couple decide to go under the knife (well in that case exchange body for young people body) and go inot the clinic where the doctor shows them people. The old man hasn't enough money so he decided to go gamble all he's got by playing cards with a bunch of guys and one of them has a really big heart and let the old guy win although his hand was stronger. The old couple hasn't got enough money to both exchange bodies so because the pop's body is in worse state the mom tell him to go for it. After the operation the new pop is really happy and the lady is happy for him but he decide to revert to his old body after saying that life without his love won't be worthe living (awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwh! an episod full of love)

Another I remember vagely is on happening in a hotel laounge where somebody gets killed by a gun (I think it's a man by a woman) and during the remaining time of the episode somebody else goes back in time to try to stop this to happend. The guy who goes back in time finally succeed and I think that at the end it's the woman that get's killed by the man or something.

Wasn't this about a couple of Martian scientists trying to figure out why humans murder one another, and they kept re-running the murder with one variable changed each time?

The one where the guy is a hypocondriac, so he makes a deal with the devil ("Cadwallada") to live for thousands of years and never get sick.

He then goes about trying to kill himself in various ways so that he can have some thrill to living. But he finds them all rather dull. So he knocks his wife off the roof of their building and calls the police so that he can try the electric chair.

Only, things don't go as he planned--he doesn't get the chair, he gets multiple life sentences. Now he has to live for thoudands of years in a little prison cell. He exercises his escape clause and dies there in prison. "Cadwallada" is then laughing hysterically in the background during the fade to black.

It's a very early ep. I think.
