 2000 Plus was arguably the first radio anthology science fiction series for adults, arriving on the mutual broadcast network about a month before the better-known Dimension X debuted on NBC. Airing March 15, 1950 to December 26, 1951, it was created by Sherman H. Dreyer and produced with Robert Wendelson. There were earlier series with science fiction themes like the 1941 series Latitude Zero and Juvenile series like Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. But except for an auditioned episode of Beyond Tomorrow, this was the first science fiction series for adults. A side note, Beyond Tomorrow was produced February 23, 1950 with three other episodes, but it is unclear whether this series was ever actually broadcast, though it was announced in newspapers in April of that year. Like its contemporary counterpart Dimension X, which used scripts derived from published stories, 2000 Plus produced all original stories penned by Dreyer and various staff writers, postulating what life would be like in the years beyond 2000 AD. The resulting stories were of uneven quality and often reflected a paranoia about changes brought on by technological advances. After airing on Wednesdays at 9 p.m. in New York for more than a year, the series bounced around the mutual schedule in 1951, before airing its final episode at the end of that year. Of the nearly 90 episodes that were broadcast, only 16 are known to exist. A pioneering science fiction series that is often overshadowed by the better known series Dimension X, X-1, and Exploring Tomorrow, 2000 Plus is worth revisiting, particularly for science fiction fans wanting to hear original stories not published or adapted elsewhere.
