S3E5: Modern Sci-Fi Television – A Reader's History of Science Fiction
In this episode, I review the recent history and current status of science fiction on television during the streaming era. TV recommendation: The Orville
The hallmark of early science fiction was the pulp magazines, which continued the tradition of larger-than-life adventure stories. Despite the sometimes silly and over-the-top writing style, this was an important step in the development of the genre.
Book recommendation: The Lost World by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
