Unfortunately, ABC has decided to not show the full series of masters of 
scifi.  They are skipping 2 episodes.  (These had all originally shown on 
Showtime, I think, just like it's sister series....Masters of Horror.) 

I'm taping them, but I've not watched them yet.  AFAIK, they have only 
done the one series, and have no intentions of doing more, so I'm 
pretty sure we won't see a Moorcock story, alas.
