1. Yes, I watched quite a few of them.
2. Hard to say, I've been a big Twilight Zone fan since I was a kid and enjoy just about all the episodes I've ever seen. I like the ones that surprise you at the end, like the one with William Shatner ("Nightmare at 20,000 feet")(I've never like him as an actor, he's an obnoxious ham) where he was supposedly seeing a monster on the wing of the airplane and when they landed, the engine cowl was indeed partially ripped open. The other one I liked was the one with the recluse old woman ("The Invaders") whose house was being invaded by tiny aliens and it turned out the "aliens" were American astronauts.
What was cool was they aired an episode ("Long Distance Call") near the end that I they don't air that often because it was taped in a different format due to budget problems and it looked like a soap opera where the images were narrowed and flattened.
I also like "The Bewitchin' Pool" (brother and sister with uncaring parents dive into pool and discover Aunt T) for nostalgic reasons as it was the last ever episode of The Twilight Zone and "Where is everybody?" (Earl Holliman - the astronaut in training who was hallucinating because it turned out he was in an isolation box for ten days) because it was the first episode aired in 1959. "The Eye of the Beholder" (girl undergoes unsuccessful surgery to correct her "hideous" face) is a cool episode because the pretty girl star is the actress (Donna Douglas) who wound up playing Elly May Clampett on the Beverly Hillbillies and I just found out that she died of pancreatic cancer on January 1, 2015 the day the episode aired.
My parents were big Twilight Zone fans and while I'm too young to remember when the episodes were premiering, I remember them in rerun back in the 1960s.
