Hey HYPNOTOAD - and other SF fans -
There's a show coming on at 10 EST - (about 10 minutes now) - on ABC, called:

Masters of Science Fiction.

It's not your "typical SF" stuff, though people. Thinking man's futuristic what-if's. Political, too.

Check it out.


:woohoo:

1. didja watch?
didja??

It was totally awesome.

If you missed it, you really missed a great show.

I can't believe it was written in 1985 (6?) - still, unfortunately, relevant today.

2. Missed it; I only got home 20 minutes ago.
:(

1985? Why would ABC, in a prime time slot, air a 22 year old program? Which would have 7 minutes cut out of it to squeeze in the quantity of commercials deemed the norm today?

3. no no - the short story was written
in 85.

It's a totally new production. Completely awesome.

I hope the rest in the series are as good.

This story, though - well, I hope you can see it in rerun or someone's got a copy for you or something.

As Treasonous Bastard in GD put it - it was an excellent old-style SF Morality play.

yeah!
