Need your help!

I'm looking for old-time (1930s-1950s) radio shows about either robots from space or robot killers, or something along those lines. Needs to be a radio show though. Just curious if anyone knows any off the top of their head.

 

So far all I've been able to find is a story called "The Robot Killer" from an old sci-fi radio show titled "2000 plus".

Orsen Well's radio broadcast of War of the Worlds (1938) comes to mind. Not a series, but a one time broadcast.

 

Sorry, not robots!

Liar!

by Isaac Asimov

 

A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

 

So says the First Law of Robotics and it seems a sensible sort of precaution to build into a machine. But how far must a robot go to avoid harming a human being? What will it do? What will it say?

 

What if the robot in question can read minds?

 

If your only exposure to Isaac Asimov's robot stories has been the recent Will Smith action movie antics, then you are in for a pleasant surprise. In fact, this is a neat two for one deal. Our story was not only written by Dr. Asimov, but it is introduced by the legendary sci-fi editor John W. Campbell Jr..

 

First broadcast on the Mutual Broadcasting System c.1950.
