Science Fiction All American Old Time Radio Show Classic Collections

Science Fiction

These early radio episodes are true American treasures and are must listening to for anyone who grew up in that era. For those a bit younger, it is a window into how your parents and grandparents entertained themselves. Remember, this was the time before most folks had a TV. If you have any interest in nostalgia and entertainment history, you can not afford to pass up these true American Treasures.

Journey Into Space was a BBC Radio science fiction program and was written by BBC producer Charles Chilton. There were three series were produced. The first series was created in 1953, soon after Riders of the Range, which was a popular Western and also written by Chilton, ended its six seasons on the BBC Light Program. Michael Standing, then Head of the BBC Variety Department, asked Chilton if he could write a sci-fi program, and Journey to the Moon (later known as Operation Luna) was the result. The second series, The Red Planet, followed the adventures of the crew in their first attempt to reach and explore Mars. Several new characters were introduced, the most notable of which were Frank Rogers and James Edward Whitaker, the two original crewmen of freighter #2. Series three of Journey Into Space, The World in Peril, followed Jet Morgan and his crew's return to Mars in an attempt to avert the impending Martian invasion. So take a Journey into Space and enjoy over 24 hours and 55 episodes of this wonderful sci-fi series.

Space Patrol is a science fiction adventure, aimed at juvenile audiences of the early 1950s via television, radio, and comic books. The success of the TV show spawned a radio version, which ran from 18 September 1950 to 19 March 1955. The same cast of actors performed on both shows. So sit back, and for the next 40 hours and over 90 episodes, listen to the science fiction adventure that is prized by Old Time Radio collectors today as one of radio's most enjoyable adventures.

Dimension X was an NBC radio program broadcast from April 8, 1950 to September 29, 1951. The first 13 episodes were broadcast live, and the remainder were pre-recorded. Fred Wiehe and Edward King were the directors, and Norman Rose was heard as both announcer and narrator (his famous opening: "Adventures in time and space, told in future tense..."). So sit back with the precursor to X Minus One, and enjoy over 23 hours, 50 episodes of science fiction written by some of the best science fiction writers ever.

Dark Fantasy was an American Radio supernatural thriller anthology. It had a short run of 31 episodes, debuting on November 14, 1941 and ending on June 19, 1942. Its writer was Scott Bishop, also known for his work on The Mysterious Traveler. It originated from station WKY in Oklahoma City, and was heard Friday nights on NBC stations. Even though it only had a short run, the stories were quite imaginative for their day, found a nationwide audience almost immediately, and were way ahead of their time.  Unfortunately some of the episodes were lost. However, we are very lucky to have 24 of the 31 episodes broadcasted, so sit back, and be prepared to feel those shivers and goose bumps while you listen to almost 10 hours and 24 episodes of Dark Fantasy.

X Minus One - was a half-hour science fiction radio series broadcast from April 24, 1955 to January 9, 1958. X Minus One is widely considered among the finest science fiction dramas ever produced for radio. The first 15 episodes were new versions of Dimension X episodes, but the remainder were adaptations of newly published science fiction stories by leading writers in the field, including Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Philip K. Dick, Robert A. Heinlein, Frederik Pohl and Theodore Sturgeon, along with a few original scripts. This show is a must for the old time radio fan, and even more so if you are a sci-fi fan. So sit back and enjoy the talents of some of the best with over 110 episodes and better then 50 hours of entertainment.
