Sat 11PM EST The Sun Makers eps 1+2 of 4
Pluto - an austere but warm planet. Six suns leave the planet in constant daylight, and support the entire human population. The design - kind of like certain early Blake's 7 episodes. Only one thing mars this paradise - it's virtual slavery. A mysterious combination corporation + welfare state government has taken the tax code to the logical extreme and is working humanity to death.
ยป the following week's edition reported that episode two was cut off part way through.
