   I always really disliked this one, it's good to know I'm not alone. But   
   I thought it still had the laugh track? Can't be sure because whenever   
   it comes on I don't watch.   
      
   As for it becoming a spin-off, Carol Burnett was destined for greater   
   heights five years later.   
      
   I'd be curious how many on this list were penned by Serling, and how   
   many were penned by Richard Matheson or some other accomplished sci-fi   
   writer.
