I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Enjoy seeing a young Sydney Pollack. Another example of time travel that many stories in the series explored. Very sweet that they acted indifferent to Booth in order to send him back to his own time. The fadeout is quite poignant expressing that fact. Directed by the esteemed TV director, Buzz Kulik.
8:26- DOUG MEAD: "What do you mean you don't like the way I'm directing this play?" SID SPERRY: "That's just what I said! I DON'T LIKE IT." DOUG MEAD: "YOU don't like *ME."* SPERRY: "What are you inferring???" MEAD: "I'm not inferring, I'M TELLING YOU!!!!! And the same goes for you, 'Mr. Butter and Egg Man'!!!!" SPERRY: "Now, hold on there----------" MEAD: "You 'angels' are all the same! You throw your money around if you smell a profit.......and brother, you SMELL." SPERRY: "That's why you're fired.": MEAD: "Because I won't bow down to you????? Because I won't rub your head and kiss your ring?????? Sperry, you can *have* this play, and what's left of it!!!!!! I'll apologize to Booth later." SPERRY: "You listen to me, BUSTER. I make and break punks like you!" MEAD: "It's too bad nobody ever figured out how to put *YOU* back together again."
A sentimental favourite of mine. Never fails to hit me right in the feels.
He snap out of it, he almost end up in his own Willoughby

Livingston, the Wilford Brimley age-related comment really made laugh :)

Twilight Zone does an excellent job with the time travel episodes. Good one Livingston!
Booth definitely got his confidence back at the end. It still seems a little sad to me. ❤️ from 🇨🇦
I think going back in time after you already know what the future holds would be sad.

Gotta love the slap. Damn heartless.

Unfortunately, Bewitchin Pool isn’t one to look forward too. But many others are!
