I just watched season 1 of this. I only liked the scenes with the Cleons/Demerzal and Hari. Is it worth watching the rest of it? The other characters were boring enough that I'll probably just jump through their scenes.
>>
Yes. The second and (so far) third seasons are much easier to get through than the first. The Cleon storyline is fucking kino, the Foundation storyline is a lot more tolerable, and you'll actually find out what Gaal is all about.

8/10 would recommend.
>>
Yes, you got through the hard part
>>
>>214179480
No, it's woke

Blessed, thanks Anons. Good to know it gets better.
>>
>>214179480
I see two niggers in the front, so no.

demrezel sexo

>>214179480
No, its just shallow special effects that only barely follows the book.

Y'know that used to be a dude, right?

and?
>>
>>214180553
So the show is gay?.Will not watch.
>>
>>214179480
the books aren't worth reading and the show is DEIslop. no.
>>
>>214179480
Just read the books, Christ.
>>
>>214180672
The Foundation trilogy is amazing, and the other 4 books aren't bad by any metric.
>>
>>214182058
Nobody here reads books, despite reading thousands of words on their screens every day. They could read books but choose not to.
>>
>>214179480
skip all the gail scenes and it's decent
production is top notch (apple are great for this) and the emperor is kino
some good actors in it too
>>
>>214179480
the book trilogy is kino but this show seems too DEI'd for me desu
>>
>>214179480
Literally the best science fiction TV of the 2020s

rereading wolfe's works atm
>>
>>214182154
I do. I also chose to avoid anything woke, like any normal person
>>
>>214182327
>>214182154
I'm stating soldier of the mist this week. I'm not sure how I feel about Wolfe. Book of the new sun was great at points but pretty stinky in others.
>>
>>214182058
Completely different story. Bad comparison and bad take.

>>214182307
I just watched the first two eps of season 2. There's a scene where the space ship with Gaal, Salvor and LLM-Hari is flying up out of synnax with Salvor on the outside and there's NO WIND. What the fuck. Not a single slight breeze as they're flying above the clouds with her standing outside looking at the horizon.
Definitely not the best of the 2020s, if you exclude the later Expanse seasons because that started pre-2020 then the placement would go to Andor for me. Not that I've watched much post 2020 scifi.
>>
>>214182307
There is no sci fi worth existing in the last 10 years, and I'm being generous not saying 20 or 30
>>
>>214179480
how woke is this? that's my main gripe with starting this series
>>
>>214183119
It's all dog Shiite! Last great sci-fi show was Stargate Atlantis. And Star Trek ended 2005, 1965-2005.
>>
>>214183141
super pozzed
>>
>>214179480
It's weird that, from what I understand (only watched the first 2 eps) this show makes a very big change from the premise of the books. The empire, emperor and Trantor should be over and done with by the time holo-Hari is telling the Foundation people about the crises. Demerzel should have completely disappeared. The basis of the books is what the Foundation faces in the decades(?) AFTER the empire is fallen and finished.
>>
>>214183207
Empire should collapse this season but I doubt they will let go off the best part of the showe
>>
>>214183207
I don't blame them for dragging it out, Dawn, Dusk and Day are the only interesting part of the show.
>>
>>214183207
It's completely different to the books, just imagine it's loosely based on the ideas and no more than that. Empire is by far the best part followed by Hari Seldon then a power gap to any other character so it's a good thing.

>>214183141
The casting is fairly pozzed with a lot of gender swapped characters and muh diversity but I can't think of any particularly pozzed scenes.
>>
>>214180553
No, it was always a robot
>>
>>214183176
I completely agree. Even if I remember Continuum in late 00s not being that bad
scifi is dead
>>
enjoyed the first two seasons despite the DEI bullshit

season 3 is fucking boring so far
the mule is an extremely uninteresting and fucking contrived villain that is so OP it pretty much feels like it will require some bullshit deus ex machina to defeat him
the DEI bullshit is also extremely grating this season

i dont even think i'll finish watching this season

compared to other sci-fi, i prefer the expanse and for all mankind
i stopped watching the latest season of for all mankind though
>>
>>214182307
>implying there is any competition whatsoever
>>214183065
i don't really count star wars as scifi even though it is since it's a whole subgenre at this point and has zero sci whatsoever but andor is better although foundation is probably second
the expanse completely shit the bed after s1/s2 and was never better than the empire parts of foundation
>>
>>214183571
>i don't really count star wars as scifi
I agree with you. Andor is the only Star Wars media I actually like. Early Mandalorian was ok but it got too popular and the writers started sniffing their own farts.
>>
>>214183488
Yeah, a male one
>>
>>214183639
Robots are sexless Anon. They will never be a woman
>>
>>214183639
That is meaningless. A robot doesn't have a sex, only a cosmetic skin it can change, unlike a human for which sex is more than skin deep
>>
>>214183619
>Andor
lmao
>>214183555
Nah. If you see DEIshit and still watch it, then you are the problem
DEI = bad
>>
>>214183745
>>214183690
That shit is a modern concern you are trying to inflict to fiction.
Demerzel was built as a male robot, just like Dors was built as a female robot.
>>
>>214183619
andor is a cut above everything else even though it's flawed
i also liked mando s1 but the last episode is when the entire show starts to fall apart (taika waititi's direction is painful too)
it's a shame because exploring with mando and yeed while werner herzog chases them would have been kino but instead it devolved into boba fatt, blue sky lasers, and cgi luke
>>
>>214183907
shitdor has no value. it's jsut sw without sw, set in disney wars
no reason to exist at all
>>
>>214184105
It exists for monologuing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWCF11uc8vM&t=75
>>
>>214184105
lol
>>
>>214179480
All you have to see is the cover to know its DEI slop so no
>>
>>214179480
In order of best to worst its S3, 2 then 1
>>
>>214183332

That gay kiss
