@victor-meldrew yeah we found ourselves going "oh shit what happened last season again?" for the first ten minutes.

@crucial I was just coming to comment on that, Apple have a pretty decent track record with thier productions, and the trailer looks great.

Just finished the first episode. OMFG. I am so glad I lived long enough to see this filmed using technology that does the concepts justice. It is stunning.

Ted Lasso
Wow, what a fall fall from S1 to S2.
10 episodes into S2, and it's been 2 great, 6 average, and 2 appalling (courtesy of Apple demanding 2 extra episodes be slotted in after the fact, it's crazy how easy they are to identify)
Really lost its way.

Watched Foundation. The visuals are stunning but way too po-faced and serious. Maybe that appeals to sci-fi geeks?
Good sci fi ias no laughing matter Crucial
The future has no sense of humour.
Luckily Star Wars was set 'a long time ago....'

In its defence Foundation was written during WW2, 80 years ago. There wasn’t any sci-fi to take the piss out of or subvert, because this story was pretty much the entire genre.
They’ve changed some things from the book but turning it into a joke would have just antagonised any fans.

I didn't get this at all. Before reading this I've heard other people complaining about it but aside from one storyline which I'll discuss in a spoiler below I've really enjoyed this season.
I actually really like the two added ones too, they gave me a kind of Atlanta and Master of None vibe and I like those two shows.
Ah well, I'm happy at least.

The whole Nate being a complete asshole was just weird. I have no problem with how they made him to big for his boots, but the off screen abuse/threatening of the new changing room guy at the end of the episode just didn't work as a characterisation.

S9 of Endeavour has ended. Good watch.
:::
The last episode was weird and way over the top, but funnily enough, I really enjoyed it, bit like The Shining meets Midsomer Murders The sub plots with Thursday's son & Morse's alcoholism were brilliantly done with some really impressive acting.

@victor-meldrew haven't watched the latest episode so will skip the spoiler for now...
