Alfred Hitchcock Presents

My wife and I have been watching these on Netflix when we don't think we can stay awake for a full movie.
They are great time fillers because each is a stand-alone episode. Unlike most tv series, you can watch one today and not watch the next for a month without losing anything.
I had forgotten how good these were. They are nice little short mysteries with a nice twist at the end. Most of the twists can be seen coming a mile away, but they're still entertaining.
The early shows have run -times less than 30 minutes, so it's tough to develop any real inticate details in the mysteries. If I recall correctly, it later changed to an hour long show.
I had also forgotten how funny Hitchcock's little monologues were. He was not only a brilliant director (he actually only directed the occasional episode), but had a good quirky sense of humor.
Anyone else watched any of these lately? Ever?

I like "The Babysitter," "There Was An Old Woman," and "Breakdown."
Breakdown was very difficult to watch because you FELT what the poor guy who had been in the accident was feeling..
