Masters of Science Fiction

[trekkier]

Hey guys, has anybody seen this short lived anthology series? If so is it worth the time?

Yes I've seen it.

No, it's not worth the time.

 

[trekkier]

Yikes...it was that bad? It only lasted 6 episodes, but I've read that it was pretty good...haha

 

[Harvey]

Harlan Ellison co-wrote an episode based on a short story of his, IIRC, but what I've seen (a few stills and a clip or two) made the series look pretty cheap.

Yup all 6 episodes! Well worth a look. Prob would have been the best anthology ever if it had a guaranteed season.

RAMA

 

[Forbin]

Is it over already? I think I only saw three eps!

 

[Deckerd]

I saw one that was quite good, so I tuned in again the next week and it was rubbish.

There is a previously unaired episode debuting on the Science Channel this Sunday at 10 Eastern: "Little Brother" by Walter Mosley, adapted by the author from his own short story.

 

[Tom]

I only saw the Disgarded with John Hurt and Brian Denehey, did not really care for it.

I watched a couple episodes on DVD via Netflix.
The 1 hour show felt like it should have been 30 minutes. Milked. More of a play in a room with sci-fi themes. lotsa talking. Like 1950s scifi films.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Didn't that air on network TV(ABC?)? The Masters of Horror on Showtime was definitely better. Masters of SF seemed rather dated in approach from what I remember.

 

[PsychoPere]

Is it over already?

"Already"? It was cancelled back in 2007.

Didn't that air on network TV(ABC?)?

ABC, yeah. No way it was ever going to survive there.

I thought the one with Judi Davis & Sam Waterston was really good; that aired just a few weeks ago on the Science Channel.
