Exploring the possibilities of space, time, and perception, these six hour-long episodes feature big stars--including Malcolm McDowell, Anne Heche, John Hurt, and Brian Dennehy--lending their talents to the work of such classic writers as Robert A. Heinlein, Howard Fast, and Harlan Ellison. Meanwhile, screenwriters Josh Olson (A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE), Walter Mosley (DEVIL IN A BLUE DRESS), and Michael Tolkin (THE PLAYER) pair with accomplished directors to shape their work into mind-bending parables that expand our notion of reality. Narrated by physicist Stephen Hawking, this collection from the show's first season includes the episodes "The Discarded," "Jerry Was a Man," "A Clean Escape," "The Awakening," "Little Brother," and "Watchbird" (the last two never broadcast during the show's initial run).
