Joy H. (joyofglensfalls) | 16697 comments There's an interesting series called "Prophets of Science Fiction" (2011 & 2012) which I discovered on the Science Channel today.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2091018/?...
The series shows how "the science-fiction imaginings of the writers of the past are now becoming the science realities of our day."

The series is available at Amazon.com as an Instant Video. See their ad here:

Scroll down at the above linked page to see the list of episodes for Season One. Included are:
1. Mary Shelley
2. Philip K. Dick
3. H. G. Wells
4. Arthur C. Clarke
5. Isaac Asimov
6. Jules Verne
7. Robert Heinlein
8. George Lucas

The cost per episode is $1.99.
The cost for the entire season one is $12.99.

The original air date on the Science Channel was 11/30/11.
I see that the series is currently being re-aired on the same channel. Just now they are airing the episode about Isaac Asimov's works.
