A year ago, "Masters of Science Fiction" made its brief debut on ABC. While the general masses may still be a bit sci-fi-phobic, real genre fans now have a chance to get the entire series on DVD.

"Masters of Science Fiction" was released on DVD yesterday, and now both Airlock Alpha and SyFy Radio are giving away DVD sets to 10 lucky readers and listeners.

The DVD contains not only the entire series, which originally premiered Aug. 4, 2007, but it also has two never-before-seen episodes of the series that ABC decided it didn't want to air. "Masters of Science Fiction" adapted short stories from some of the genre's greatest practitioners including Robert Heinlein, Harlan Ellison, Robert Sheckley and John Kessel. It was hosted by Stephen Hawking.

Episodes starred the likes of Sam Waterson, Judy Davis, Anne Heche, Malcolm McDowell, Terry O'Quinn, Elizabeth Rohm, Brian Dennehy, John Hurt, Sean Astin and James Denton. Directors included Jonathan Frakes from "Star Trek: The Next Generation."

Winning is easy. Six DVD sets will be given away by random drawing on Sept. 2, 2008. All you have to do is visit this link and fill out the form.
