30 SEP 2026 · Aired: May 22nd, 1955. The last man on Earth sits alone in a room — then comes a knock at the door. After an alien race called the Zan wipes out all animal life to make way for colonization, anthropology professor Walter Phelan finds himself the sole human survivor and an exhibit in an otherworldly zoo. This stark and darkly witty adaptation of Fredric Brown's classic short story asks what it means to be human when you're the last of your kind.
29 SEP 2026 · Aired: May 15th, 1955. Hugh Hoyland dares to question the sacred teachings that the Ship is all there is — a vast, self-contained world 25 kilometers wide. Accompanied by his skeptical friend Alan, he seeks out John the Witness to hear the true Word of Jordan the Creator, only to learn of a forbidden history of mutiny that may explain the strange mutants lurking on the upper decks. Adapted from Robert A. Heinlein's classic novella, this mind-bending voyage asks what lies beyond the hull of a generation starship on an endless journey.

28 SEP 2026 · Aired: May 8th, 1955. The first crew to land on Mars touches down in darkness on April 20, 1987 — but the Red Planet is not the dead desert they expected. As Captain Black and his landing party step onto the mist-shrouded surface, familiar and impossibly nostalgic sounds begin to stir. Ray Bradbury's beloved classic comes to life in this haunting X Minus One adaptation about memory, longing, and the ultimate Martian illusion.

27 SEP 2026 · Aired: May 1st, 1955. A slick New York publicist thinks he's landed the account of a lifetime when a polite stranger claiming to be a Martian offers him a million dollars to sell the public on one idea: "The Martians Are Coming." What starts as a playful suspense campaign of teaser ads and a spectacular Martian-themed parade quickly turns into something far more chilling. This sly and satirical early episode from May 1955 adapts George Lefferts' clever tale of invasion through advertising.
