Memorial Day may be a bad day to be a human for Benjamin Bratt, Eric McCormack and Daniel Dae Kim, but for SFUniverse readers, it’s a great day! That’s when we’ll be giving away two Andromeda Strain prize packs from A&E.
In The Andromeda Strain, a U.S. military satellite crashes in a small town and unleashes a deadly plague killing all but two survivors. As the military quarantines the area, a team of highly specialized scientists is assembled to find a cure to the pathogen code-named “Andromeda,” and a reporter investigates a government conspiracy only to discover what he is chasing wants him silenced.
The four-hour original A&E television event stars Benjamin Bratt, Eric McCormack, Ricky Schroder, Andre Braugher, Christa Miller, Daniel Dae Kim and Viola Davis and airs Monday, May 26 and Tuesday May 27 from 9-11 on A&E.

Previous Post
It was the original film of The Andromeda Strain that introduced me to Michael Crichton. My father is a science fiction buff and decided the family would go see the film. I was nine years old, but very interested in science. I pestered my dad with questions during the film and for days afterwards. When I was 11, I read the book, and I’ve been an admirer of Crichton’s work ever since.
I’d love to win so I could have a chance to see this show
I have never seen it. I really think that I should see it.
Count me in
I want to win this for my wife!
We love this! I would like to win.
We watch the movie in school. I remember wanting the instant defoliator. A few seconds of bright light and you’ve taken care of that pesky leg and underarm hair and gave yourself the ultimate skin exfoliation
I read the book many years ago, and loved the original movie. I would love to have this in my collection! Thank you for this giveaway!
I would love to win this because it would make my husband so happy! Thanks for the contest!

Kate Reid from the original
Benjamin Bratt is always great to watch.
Michael Crichton is one of my favorite authors
I think this is the first Crichton book I read, and it’s definitely one of my faves ever. I’ve read it a couple times and enjoyed the old film. I can’t wait to see a modern take on it.
I just love SI-FI movies. The kids and I are always betting who will get it next!!
I’ve never seen this at all. Would love an opportunity to watch it.
I love Michael Crichton books and with Benjamin Bratt and Eric McCormack starring in this movie I don’t see how it can be anything but Great.
