New Year's 2009/2010 Twilight Zone Marathon Episode Listings

This year's New Year's marathon starts at 8:00 AM on December 31st and ends at 6:00 AM on January 2nd.

I'll get to the listings in a minute, but first a few comments.

Syfy has some radically different promos for this marathon. Maybe I'll discuss them more in a future blog. For now, I'll say they have a color scheme that I recall as being very pink and white with comic strip/fumetti visuals and sound clips from certain iconic episodes. They seem kind of cool in a strange way.

If I remember correctly, I was disappointed with the most recent July 4th marathon due to the lack of "hour long" episodes and uncut episodes. Syfy made up for it this time. I noticed at least six of the hour long epsidoes this time, plus the irregular start and stop times from roughly Seven O'Clock to Midnight on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day makes me think Syfy is running uncut episodes during those time periods.

Here are the listings according to my channel guide.
