Hey old folk, looking for an old show.

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

they show 5 minisodes... some are fact some are fiction (obviously) if anybody on here hasnt seen it i would definitely recommend it to anyone
Beyond Belief is definitely it. I've seen a couple of episodes myself when it was still in production, and it managed to be both cheesy and highly entertaining.

Here's an episode list: http://www.tv.com/beyond-belief-fact-or ... season=All

Now CTRL + F for the word "baker." There's an episode synopsis that nearly perfectly matches your synopsis with the baker ending up in the oven.
i definitely remember the baker one too... it was a cake for the mafia, a cake for doing a "favor"...

Holy shit! You guys actually found it! I knew I'd find my answer here. Yeah, I know shows from that time frame aren't that old, but I had to call it something.

It amazes me people actually know what I'm talking about. Whenever I'd ask someone irl, they'd look at me like I was crazy.

Thanks guys, and I'm off to watch some minisodes, and I'm glad I peaked some people's interests.

I'd just like to clarify that Are You Afraid of the Dark? would never show a guy's hands falling into a woodchipper or a person being baked to death. They couldn't even use the word "die", as I recall.

Probably peoples' kid tinted memory glasses making it seem scarier than it was. I only really remember one episode having something to do with a firefighter or a fire or something.

This Mystery is Solved

Its NIGHT VISIONS tv series


July 12, 2001 (2001-07-12) – September 6, 2001

"One story had to do with a barn. A boy was helping the old man farmer with farmwork, and the farmer kept a wood chipper in one of the barnhouses. Something happens when the boy startles the farmer and the farmer's hands fall into the woodchipper."

I just saw this episode last week on Chiller network

Jack Palance Bitter Harvest episode of Night Visions
A farm boy's mistake costs his neighbor both arms, and when he is forced to work for the man a game of cat and mouse ensues.
