| Oct 13, 2021 at 16:08 | comment | added | FuzzyBoots | This Review: "Haldeman has another story in the volume, the very brief What Time Is It?, which imagines a use for faster than light travel to indulge the nostalgic feelings of wealthy men who yearn for the television programs of their youth." | |
| May 31, 2017 at 2:53 | comment | added | user14111 | @OrganicMarble The ISFDB page for that anthology indicates that the theme of Haldeman's "What Time Is It" is "Nostalgia", a good sign. On the other hand, Kuttner and Leiber are not represented in that anthology. | |

| May 30, 2017 at 20:27 | comment | added | user14111 | Haldeman's "What Time Is It?" seems to fit the "very short" part of the description, apparently it's all on p. 12 of Vertex, February 1975. Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of that. | |
| May 30, 2017 at 20:24 | comment | added | user14111 | @Gallifreyan Definitely not the Elam story, described in this unaccepted answer. Not the Asimov, that's a Black Widowers story. If it's one of those four, it's probably the Haldeman. | |

| May 30, 2017 at 18:16 | comment | added | Organic Marble | It's a story about TV and it's in an anthology about TV. | |
| May 30, 2017 at 18:15 | comment | added | Valorum | Can you describe why you think this would be a good match. | |
| May 30, 2017 at 18:13 | comment | added | Organic Marble | There is a story of that title by Jack Haldeman which is collected in an anthology called TV 2000 so that sounds like a good candidate. isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?53469 | |
