I apologize if I've missed a recent discussion of this hot issue. I did do a search and it turned up nothing.
I was a fan of the first season, but the first episode of season 2? JFC was that bad. I half expected someone to drag a blow up shark into the locker room. Am I wrong here?
oh, well I guess we all have different tastes
Great story and great characters.
Was fantastic. My spirit animal is a mix of Ron Swanson and Roy Kent.
Apple has some good shows - Morning Show, Mythic Quest, Schmigadoon, Ted Lasso. But I agree that they need more content.

was running out so I gave Season 1 a go a couple of days ago and ended up binging all 10 episodes. Yup, great show. So well written and acted. Not enough to get me to re-up for season 2 though..lol. I've got enough subscriptions and Apple needs more content.

I'd add Defending Jacob and Home Before Dark to that list although I might be the only one
For All Mankind is one of the best shows in years too, by the way.
I do feel like it's lost some of its charm. The jokes aren't really landing or seem to be forced. But it's early yet. Sure, there hasn't been a scene remotely as enjoyable as the first season's dart scene, but the first 4 episodes of last season didn't contain any either.
So I thought EP 1 was pretty good - but missing that underlying drama/humor. EP 2 was better and we're off the races.
On a side note would have loved to binge S2, Ive become a huge fan of watching TV that way instead of weekly.
Apple is really crushing it and I like their model of making good quality shows with broad appeal. For All Mankind wasn't really my cup of tea, but it's hard to argue the quality isn't there. I think I've watched and liked about a 1/3rd of their catalogue.
Big Asimov fan and always wanted to see a Foundation series on HBO (becuase its going to be awfully hard to bring to screen and why it hasn't yet) but its certainly in good hands with Apple.

Dammit, I decided to watch For All Mankind, yeah my Saturday is blown binging on this

and Apple TV is in its infancy, the content will grow. It’s $5 anyway, it’s essentially free.

It’s a remarkable show and I can’t believe it hasn’t gotten more buzz. Absolutely nails the time period and the cast + writing is great.
