Old time radio drama exists because of hobbyists and radio personnel, who rescued episodes of shows on transcription tapes and on glass or vinyl records. Some radio programs are presumed lost, primarily those from the 1930s – few programs from the 1920s were recorded

Sci-Fi

Although often low budget many science-fiction shows were superbly written and produced. Famous writers include Ray Bradbury, Isaac Asimov, Robert Bloch, Robert A. Heinlein, Poul Anderson and Theodore Sturgeon.

It was a thirty-minute adult science fiction drama series with 45 episodes being broadcast before it was later revived as X Minus One.

X-Minus One ( 127 Files )

Broadcast History: 1955 to 1958

Dimension X was the framework for X Minus One. It was an extension of Dimension X, sometimes even broadcasting the same stories. X Minus One was a thirty-minute science fiction series totalling 113 episodes and throughout its three years of broadcasting, it always used the same opening, a rocket-launch countdown. The stories were strict science fiction striking out into deep space, exploring thousands of other worlds and galaxies and, the much more exciting, power struggles with aliens. Although the stories were not always human triumphs, sometimes the aliens won!
