Help me I.D. this old sci-fi episode, please. Possibly Twilight Zone.
This is probably easy and will take less than 5 posts to i.d.
Its probably Outer Limits or Twilight Zone.
It's an episode where some guy who has committed a crime is sentenced to be "invisible", so I think he has it stamped on his forehead and everyone in this society is ordered to ignore him. And he gets desperate for interaction, so he strikes up a conversation with a blind person who can't see his stamped forehead and then someone tips off the blind person and that ends that....the guy ends up (I think) accepting the normal sentence of a long time in jail.
This has to be a twlight zone...

It's a The Twilight Zone (1985). "To See the Invisible Man" I remember seeing it and being very impressed with the whole story.

greetings
The crime was for being a cold anti-social person. After his sentence, he learned his lesson a bit too well.

Wow. That sounds like a great idea for a story. I might seek out the episode. Thanks, Alex, for posting the original question, and David for the answer.

ah, I knew it, less than 5 posts. Thanks a lot !
I know the original series fairly well, but since this was one of the revival series, it escaped me.

I remember this episode. Didn't something happen when he tried to cover up the mark...like it burned or something? great episode.
Father: She didn't say, "I'm not in" She said, "We're not in" "We," you see, "we" Now what does "we" mean.
Bobby: I believe it's the plural form, indicating more than one. Do you want me to conjugate that for you, pop? Do you know what conjugate means, dad?

Yes, the mark was able to burn through a hat so that it could not be concealed. The ending to this story was especially powerful

Were the new episodes from 1985-89 ever released on dvd?

Yep, there's two sets (one has S1 and the other has S2 and S3 together). |
