Title: For All Mankind (AppleTV plus) Post by: Surlyboi on August 07, 2022, 07:47:02 PM Watch this if you haven’t been.
We’re an episode away from the end of season three and it’s an amazing ride. Long story short, the Soviets beat us to the Moon in 1969 and the space race never ended. Each season jumps ahead by about a decade. By season three, we’re racing for Mars. It’s amazing. And not just because I know a bunch of the people involved.

I do agree the show is good on the whole, the first two seasons were both pretty well done but the third season just wasn't doing it for me anymore. I'll probably go back to it at some point but my "must watch this every week!" faded after the third or fourth week and I stopped watching it.

I've tried, but (tired dad) fell asleep a few times. Will try again.

Aside from the realistic sci-fi and the period stuff, which is all great, I really like the character's evolution over the years. Some of them "grow up" in really satisfying ways, some change in less satisfying ways, some do both, some just kind of stay stuck, and it's cool to watch them all play off of each other.
