It's been 15 years since we've heard X Minus One, and this revival didn't help bring radio back. A family buys a discounted robot to replace the model in their home. The new Robot Servitor, Bismarck, ensures the family follows its rules in helping them lose weight. They try to capture the feel of OTR. The story is from 1958 and the presentation includes an organ striking dramatic notes. But the story is not as compelling as others. (from "The Critical X Minus One" by Jim Fanisher)
