The Twilight Zone: Mirror Image (1960)
Season 1, Episode 21
5/10
Not enough story for 25 minutes...\

Warning: Spoilers
Verz Miles stars as a young lady who is being haunted, of sorts, by herself! This is because while she waits at a bus station, she keeps hearing about a doppleganger (exact double) who is also at the station. People keep saying that they've met her or talked with her there but she states emphatically that she just arrived. A few times she evens sees herself--briefly. And, when she tells people about this, they naturally assume she is insane.

There really isn't a whole lot more to the plot than this and the show seemed awfully drug-out--like there just wasn't enough to the story to justify the 25 minutes of the episode. Had the show been perhaps 15 minutes, I really think it would have worked better. As is, it just seemed padded and there wasn't enough payoff to justify seeing this as anything but an average to below average episode. A decent idea...but not enough to sustain my interest.
