Overview
- Where to start? This is a question that plagues beginning radio listeners and life-long fans alike. Maybe you have a preference for a certain decade or a particular genre of radio drama. Maybe you need help remembering that show you listened to in your youth, but don't know where to find it. This table can help you find what you're looking for. Each series on this site is listed chronologically by decade and is grouped into one of four umbrella genres below. Obviously there is some overlap, so use the 'genres' with a grain of salt.Horror / Thriller
- includes supernatural thrillers, horror, macabre, and murder mysteries.Science Fiction / Fantasy
- includes adult and juvenile science fiction, as well as superhero/supervillain fiction.Action / Adventure
- includes straight-up adventure as well as adventure mixed with mystery and supernatural.Drama
- includes serious broadway plays, adaptations from movies, and experimental workshops.I do not have plans to create plot summaries for most of the series in this table—that would require a lifetime. But I have provided at least a Summary for every entry in the table. Each entry is a link: it will take you to either a stand-alone Summary or a Summary page with Plotlines and Reviews.
This same information is included as an alphabetical list on the Series Index page.
