Top sci-fi

Now this was the way to take it to the sci-fi lovers like me!!!

Mars is Heaven, first broadcast 7-6-1950 on Dimension X

On old-time radio, I've listened to numerous adaptations of "Mars is Heaven" by Ray Bradbury. Ernest Kinoy's adaptation is head and shoulders above any other I've ever heard. It masterfully builds suspense until you are on the very edge of your seat. The performances are all that you could hope for, and then some. Wendell Holmes as Captain Black, and Peter Capell as Doctor Horst are pitch-perfect. Finest 28 minutes ever on the radio, IMO.

good sci-fi

I normally like more horror stories than sci-fi but these are good! There will come soft rains is an edited version. of the Martian chronicles and the outer limits and first contact are the exact same story! apart from that I really enjoyed listening to these. gets your imagination working!

Excellent listening despite some irritating music& sound effects

A good selection of sci fi stories well spoken. However several had music playing over the speech that was louder than the voices making me give up on them and move to the next one part way through.

Dimension X best Sci Fi

Jay Sokolow

Some of the best sci -fi to appear on the radio. Dimension X was largely replayed as part of the later X minus 1 series. Features some of the now famous, but then unknown, authors such as Assimov and Heinlein.

A little corny in true 1950's style and amusing hearing the 70s to 90's being refered to as the future. but it has some great yarns.. I enjoyed it!

Priceless
