'Of course its not fair. We're evil look it up.' The bluntness is what makes it funny.🤣

One of the things I love the most about this episode is the subtlety of everything going on. Sherman is absolutely terrified of the demon initially and is constantly backing away from him and trying to keep himself from getting cornered. However, once he has the information he needs in only two out of the three questions, he knew that he had him. The demon approaches Sherman and he doesn't even flinch. He just stands his ground and knows exactly what to do at that point.

Great, memorable performances by both.  Rest in Peace, Sherman and Ron.

I like how "Get Lost" works two ways:

The Devil knows the multiverse like the back of his hand, so he can't "get lost"

If "get lost" means "go away," the Devil has to comply, or else he concedes that he can't do it (and therefore has to leave anyway)

Two great actors.  Rest in peace gentlemen

"To flaunt your strengths is to expose your weaknesses", Rest in Peace Ron, and thanks for the memories

You see how he pretends to be interested in his math skills he’s just using it as leverage to seem interested.

I love the way his t-shirt's wording keeps changing.

This episode has actually aged pretty well.  Still clever.

I loved how the dude's t-shirt kept changing.

"Hell is a city much like Newark"
"Let's Do Damnation"

"Well, that guy wasn't any help at all!".... LOL!

I appreciate the subtle pacing and motion in this. If you pay attention, you see how Sam carefully keeps his distance from the demon. Every time the demon gets anywhere near him, he steps away to avoid him. He doesn't let the monster close to him until the end when he curtly dismisses the creature.

I've remembered this lesson for over 20 years. If the demons ever come looking for your soul, ask them to get lost

"Get lost" - the BEST! LOGIC! COMEBACK! ever. I love this one - never gets stale.

I like that Sherman Helmsley is playing  a professor with subtle comedy. Often his comedic roles are louder.
And R.I.P. Harlan Ellison

"Of course it's not fair.  We're evil.  Look it up!"

Sherman Helmsley -- one of the best actors ever. Also one of the most underrated, because he tended to stick to TV.

"You mention Dante to most people these days and they ask you how you liked Gremlins." Now that's a clever line.

This is one of my most memorable lessons from youth. "Be careful what you wish for."  Thank you Mr. Rod Serling, Mr. Sherman Helmsley, and Mr. Ron Glass.

In the original short story, the demon mentions Ernest Hemingway got rid of him the same way the mathematician did.

30 years later I get a rewatch. Gotta love youtube.
