What is that episode? (Mom and dad are aliens)

[Aaron]

I'm trying to find the name of an episode that I really liked. Was is a Twilight Zone, Darkside episode...not sure?

The plot: Dad (who is an absent minded inventor) tells his son who is in high school that they have to move.... to another planet because they are all really aliens.

Dad has built a spaceship in the basement of their house (or more accurately, the house was built on top of the spaceship).

The son is bummed because he has to leave this girl he likes, but when they are in orbit, the son discovers this girl is an alien too and she is on the spaceship.

Does anyone know the name of this episode and the show. (Yes I have been going thru the episode guides but no luck.)

doesn't ring a bell. "Amazing Stories" maybe? -- how long ago did it air? do you remember the channel?

It sounds very much like Ray Bradbury Theatre. Check that out. I remember he had one episode called "Mars is Heaven" and it sounds very similar to the plot you described.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's an episode of Amazing Stories.

Yeah, it is the episode "Moving Day" from the second season of AMAZING STORIES.
