Editing I, Robot (section)

===Television===
At least three of the short stories from ''I, Robot'' have been adapted for television. The first was a 1962 episode of ''[[Out of This World (UK TV series)|Out of this World]]'' hosted by [[Boris Karloff]] called "[[Little Lost Robot]]" with [[Maxine Audley]] as [[Susan Calvin]]. Two short stories from the collection were made into episodes of the British series ''[[Out of the Unknown]]''. These are "The Prophet" (1967), based on "[[Reason (Asimov)|Reason]]"; and "[[Liar! (short story)|Liar!]]" (1969). Both episodes were [[Lost television broadcast|wiped]] by the [[BBC]] and are no longer thought to exist, although video clips, audio extracts and still photographs have survived. Repurposed robot costumes from the former appeared in the  1968 ''[[Doctor Who]]'' serial ''[[The Mind Robber]]''.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.imdb.com/character/ch0005854/ |title=IMDb list of actresses that have played Susan Calvin. |website=[[IMDb]] |access-date=June 29, 2018 |archive-date=December 18, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161218223021/http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0005854/ |url-status=live }}</ref> The 12th episode of the [[USSR]] science fiction TV series ''[[This Fantastic World]]'', filmed in 1987 and entitled ''Don't Joke with Robots'', was based on works by [[Aleksandr Belyaev]] and [[Fredrik Kilander]] as well as Asimov's "[[Liar! (short story)|Liar!]]" story.<ref>{{in lang|ru}} [http://www.gtrf.ru/item.asp?ob_no=258680 State Fund of Television and Radio Programs] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090908045329/http://www.gtrf.ru/item.asp?ob_no=258680 |date=September 8, 2009}}</ref>

Both the [[The Outer Limits (1963 TV series)|original]] and [[The Outer Limits (1995 TV series)|revival series]] of ''The Outer Limits'' include episodes named "[[I, Robot (1964 The Outer Limits)|I, Robot]]" but these are adaptations of [[I, Robot (short story)|an unrelated work]] by [[Eando Binder|Earl and Otto Binder]] under their joint [[pseudonym]] "Eando Binder". The Binders' story introduced a recurring character, the robot named [[Adam Link]].

In August 2023, [[David S. Goyer]] revealed that he had gotten permission from [[Fox Broadcasting Company|FOX]] head [[Lachlan Murdoch]], a self-professed fan of [[Apple TV+]]'s ''[[Foundation (TV series)|Foundation]]'', to adapt concepts from ''I, Robot'' to the series' 2023 second season, in "tying [Demerzel/Daneel] into the ''I, Robot'' laws [and] doing a [[Spin-off (media)|spin-off]] [[Miniseries|mini-series]] that specifically delves into our version of "''The Robot Wars''".<ref>{{cite web|author=DavidGoyerFoundation|author-link=David S.

I'm David S. Goyer, showrunner of ''Foundation'' on Apple TV and Director of episodes 202 and 203. Ask me anything!|quote='''DavidGoyerFoundation:''' Will we do anything more with tying Demerzel into the ''I, Robot'' laws? Yes, for sure. Keep watching this season. We've even discussed doing a spin-off mini-series that specifically delves into our version of "''The Robot Wars''". No idea if we'll ever get there or if [[Apple TV+|Apple]] or the audience have the appetite for it. Depends on S2 reception and beyond. Maybe we do that – or maybe we try to incorporate that storyline within one of the seasonal arcs.|archive-date=August 1, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230801190427/https://www.reddit.com/r/television/comments/15fjxw4/hello_reddit_im_david_s_goyer_showrunner_of/judo64z/|url-status=live}}</ref>
