Favorite Twilight Zone episode?

No one has mentioned "One for the Angels" with Ed Wynn.

That one is my favorite. All of them are great, and meaningful, but that one stands out for me.

It is difficult to pick a favorite episode. The series had great writing, stars, and original plot twists. Many episodes I call a favorite have been named.
Does anyone remember "Steel" with Lee Marvin? In a future where the too brutal sport of boxing is banned the fighting is done by mechanical men. A down on his luck ex-fighter/manager (Marvin) out of necessity steps into the boxing ring against a superior fighting machine.
Another episode stars the excellent Jack Klugman called, "In Praise of Pip". This story is not creepy or have an odd plot twist. It's a dramatic story about a bookie played by Klugman whose soldier son is dying in Viet Nam and his dad's wish to have been a better father and spend another day with his son.
It's hard to find a bad episode of TZ.

My favorite is probably one of the worst of the series, but I love it anyway. "Come Wander With Me". I remember the first time I saw it as a kid and it just stuck with me all this time. Especially the very haunting song.

I've always loved "And When The Sky Was Opened" which I found to be powerful and genuinely disturbing because, in the end, there's no specific reason given for why three men are wiped off the face of the earth. Pitch perfect.

Nightmare at 20,000 Feet is great... though I've always thought the creature on the wing of the plane looked really silly. LOVED the Twilight Zone movie version of the creature.... so much better.

 

[Lost in Trek]

As stated way too many to name but I would add "The Obsolete Man".

I always liked the howling man.

My favorite- "To Serve Man." Absolutely the best play on words.

I would have to say seasons 1-5 are my favorite. Yeah, there's no way I could choose only a few, I love them all.
