Some TV and film you see stick in your mind. I watched 12.01 PM in the 80's on UK TV, and after talking about it years later with a friend realised that it'd not be too difficult to track it down.
Simply put, I'd say this is the best thirty minute story I've ever seen on the telly. I managed to track it down, and watching it again in 2011 it's just as good as it was all those years ago.
Kurtwood Smith is perfect and his performance is excellent. He manages to make the whole thing completely believable and terrifyingly sad. If you can get hold of a copy of 12.01PM, give it a try. As much as I love Groundhog Day, this is what it's all about.
Ray Bradbury would be proud if this were his tale (apologies to Ray if he's done one like this, if he has it's not one I've read!). Masters of Sci-Fi could only have hoped to produce a film like this.
