Planet of the Apes in The Twilight Zone

[trouserpress]

There was an episode of the 1990s incarnation of The Outer Limits that was very similar to The Truman Show. In fact, whoever wrote Truman Show must have seen it! A guy discovers he is the subject of a reality show when he accidentally finds a camera behind his bathroom mirror, and a repair man suddenly walks in to fix it. It was very funny, and predated the movie by at least a few years.

I think alot of philip k dick stories would have worked well, especially things like Imposter or Blade runner (do androids dream of electric sheep) if they had been edited down to rhe raw premise. Man believes one thing, discovers the opposite is true.
