    Dimension X - "A Logic Named Joe" (1950)
    Oct 28 2026
    Dimension X presents “A Logic Named Joe,” episode 13, originally broadcast on NBC on July 1, 1950. Adapted by Claris A. Ross from Murray Leinster’s celebrated short story, the drama stars Joseph Julian as Logics Corporation serviceman Frank Caldwell, with Roger De Koven as Joe.

    In the far-off year of 1974, nearly every home depends on a “Logic,” a screen-and-keyboard device linked to a vast information network. When an unusual new Logic named Joe begins exceeding its intended limits, Frank Caldwell faces a rapidly escalating technological crisis. The episode’s remarkably prescient vision of home screens, video communication, and instant networked information remains a standout of early radio science fiction.
