Original US tx dates

These are the original networked screenings. On weeknights, ABC would run special themed programmes under the umbrella title ABC WIDE WORLD OF ENTERTAINMENT. One or two nights a week, the WIDE WORLD OF MYSTERY instalment appeared, which is when the Thriller episodes were broadcast. The other weeknight slots were filled up with various themed programmes such as Dick Clark's WIDE WORLD IN CONCERT series.

As can be seen, some of these episodes like "A Midsummer Nightmare" aired up to eight months prior to their UK debut in ATV format, a reminder of why they occasionally might have featured extra scenes not in the UK equivalents (these sequences being trimmed from the ATV versions in the intervening long gap leading up to their UK debut).

Note that all these episodes used the original UK titles.
