The makers behind Showtime’s well-received MASTERS OF HORROR anthology miniseries have announced plans to produce 13 episodes of MASTERS OF SCIENCE FICTION for ABC, to air perhaps as early as this summer. Unlike HORROR, the SCIENCE FICTION show plans to adapt classic stories of the genre.
Among the fiction being discussed for adaptation are Harlan Ellison’s “The Discarded” and “‘Repent, Harlequin!’ Said the Ticktockman,” Isaac Asimov’s “The Last Question,” Ray Bradbury’s “Dark They Were, and Golden-Eyed,” as well as works by Robert A. Heinlein and Stanislaw Lem. (Via Son of Michael May)
