This episode proves that even with very good show like "The Twlight Zone", there are going to be some duds and this one is a definite DUD. Anne (Diana Hyland) is a rich heiress. One day she's out on horseback when a mysterious figure in black approaches her on a horse yelling her name. It turns out this is herself from years later trying to somehow warn her not to marry some stupid bum, as it will ruin their lives.
Problem number one: When you DO somehow have the chance to meet an earlier version of yourself and you want to warn yourself NOT to do something, don't start screeching your name like a crazy person. This will make the younger you run in terror. In this show, the older Anne is apparently stupid and acts accordingly.
Problem number two: When some odd person calls your name, you could answer or talk to them. But instead, you get all histrionic and have palpitations and whine a lot after running away from her. Nuff said.
Overall, BOTH versions of Anne are morons and their actions make no sense. As a result, the entire episode is pretty much a waste of time. No irony, no twist...just a very dumb lady!
I suspect this episode was actually written by Rod Serling's cat. Seriously.
