Born of man and woman is quick. Of the two Mathesons you've got there, give with the one that didn't take 23 revisions to the shooting script and three endings after languishing in development hell for 20 years.

And while groundhog day looks like sci fi, it could just as easily be buddhist. Live die repeat is the same movie with more lasers and aliens.

The Martian Chronicles is also a miniseries. It's on YouTube. It wasn't great at the time, but having seen it at age 5 allow me to say that it stuck with me.

I realize that about Groundhog Day, I thought it’d be a nice off-kilter addition and it highly praised anyways. The other time loop films also work great.

I did not know TMC had been made into a series. I’m really intrigued now.

I'm a big fan of Groundhog Day. I consider it a brilliant film. Live Die Repeat? It's entertaining but I wouldn't argue beyond that.

As always, thanks for this. However often you can manage it is often enough. Don't beat yourself up.
