ABC has picked up the drama series
Masters of Science Fiction, which, akin to Showtime's
Masters of Horror anthology, will feature works from some of the genre's best-known authors, including perhaps
Isaac Asimov,
Ray Bradbury,
Harlan Ellison and
Robert Heinlein. Production on the series, currently pegged for four hourlong episodes, begins in May.
