Keith Carradine trips his way through multiple dream worlds, trying to wake up. The other four principal actors show up in various roles. Ambitious for a half-hour SF episode, with a complex storyline which explores Descartes' idea of an evil demon tricking the thinker. Has an interesting twist at the end. Arkin's character even quotes the Cartesian "cogito ergo sum." Carradine plays a college professor, fairly effectively.
I'm not sure why this series has to DVD or Blu-Ray release - it contains some classic storylines seemingly based on the pre-Code EC Comics from the early 1950s. It's probably because of the overt sexuality of the robot narrator, along with the small amount of nudity.
Based loosely on "Dream of Doom" in Weird Science #12 (#1 in renumbered "new line" of EC Comics), a similar story, though in the comic the hero is an comic-book artist working for "Gill Baines". It has some meta commentary on comics production. In the comic, the hero drifts through a series of dreams, like Carradine's character in Perversions.
