I like both but give the edge to the stopwatch.

I abstain. Not trying to be a wise guy or anything like that. I just strongly dislike both episodes. It would be like someone asking me which I like better, Brussels sprouts or Lima beans.

They're both kind of goofy in a good way, and I do enjoy both of them. I went with "....Stopwatch".

I see your point and I also can't stand brussels sprouts but could eat lima beans all day.

I voted for "A Most Unusual Camera" and lima beans.

Same here.

I can eat a few brussel sprouts at a time, but that's it. Same for hot wings and rice pudding.

My reality check bounced.

I don't like either much, but "Camera" wins for the line about wearing a tie to the racetrack.

I eat both lima beans and brussels sprouts. So there.

I like both, but "A Kind of a Stopwatch" wins hands down. For me it is easily a "10". Not only does it have a good story line, but it is really funny, a real rarity in the TZ. Usually, Rod's attempts at humor fall completely flat, but not here. Stopwatch has a number of hilarious, memorable lines of dialog.

"A Most Unusual Camera" is funny in places and entertaining throughout, but I would only give it a "7" or an "8".

I like both lima beans and Bruusel sprouts very much, but hate rice pudding.

a.k.a. "Beev"

Brussels sprouts - 8
"A Most Unusual Camera" - 7 (Woodward FTW! twilightzonewor/metal.gif

)
"A Kind of a Stopwatch" - 6
Lima beans - 3
Rice pudding - 1

Thanks to Dr. Moreau for surprising me with this signature. It beats peach brandy!

An easy vote for me - I like "A Kind of A Stopwatch," but hate the other one.

A Kind Of Stopwatch
Brussels Sprouts

Lima Beans

(And no, they don't make Lima Beans in Lima, Ohio where I live)

Rice Pudding don't think I've ever had it

Do we have a Rice Pudding Haters Club in the making here?

I didn't know there were so many of us.

I don't hate it, I just don't care for it.

Funny thing is, my dad can eat it by the tub-ful.

And apparently nobody here is interested in hot wings!

Actually unintended, but thanks for pointing it out!

For me it's more like Herbie Faye vs. Fred Clark, so it's tricky for THAT reason - instead of "Which episode do I like less?" it's "Which character actor do I like more?"

I love hot wings and Indian rice pudding (khir), which is thinner that the regular kind and flavored with cardamom.
