 @2e64cdfc So, with the disclaimer that I have never read the books: we literally couldn't get through the first season.  

It was just so fucking bad and rambling and boring and pointless.

We will slog through some seriously mediocre shit, but not Foundation.

(A lot of other Apple+ shows have been fucking wonderful, though, so I don't hold it against the platform.) 
 @13df7ed9 I started watching For all Mankind and am having a better time of it 
 @2e64cdfc For All Mankind isn’t perfect but it’s a lot of fun. BlackSite has a game, Lunar, that is basically that but a minis game.  Severance is worth the hype, Bad Sisters was a surprising treat, The Afterparty a treat but not surprisingly so. … 
 @13df7ed9 @2e64cdfc I liked Shining Girls a lot. 
 @0e241662 @2e64cdfc We never got to it, and it slid off the recommended list.  Will have to make a point of giving it a shot.
