Hello /c/sciencefiction lemmies. I’ve put together an image of some of the most discussed shows from July 2023.
Are there any science fiction TV series you are currently in the middle of watching or plan on watching in August?
Here is last months post. What are you Watching? (July 2023)
Right now Strange New Worlds which has been extremely good this season following the merely OK first episode; Foundation which seems to have improved the weakest arc - the actual Foundation arc - from the first season; and Futurama which, on the evidence of the first episode, I can best characterise as being ‘back’.
Have you seen the Futurama movies? I didn’t even know they existed until this year and I’m trying to decide whether I should see the movies before starting the new season.
I have seen them, but a while ago, whilst binging through all of the show to S11, which was airing at the time. I’d say, yes - go and watch them, but I don’t recall them as particularly stand-out from the rest of the show.
So would you say S2 of Foundation is worth it? I really liked the first few episodes of S1, but the rest of the season was just okay to me.
dude. S2 foundation is hitting hard. do it.
Too early to say yet. The best part of the show is the Empire arc, IMHO. If you don’t care for that in S1, I doubt that there is anything tp grab you so far in S2. Personally, I think that it has some interesting ideas and some good character beats. The rest is merely OK.
