The biggest disbelief I currently have is why in the f*** the 5 others (minus Diabate since he doesn’t have a family that we know of yet) are totally cool to just have their family turn into mindless robots who had their souls replaced by some virus thing. I feel like they should be going even harder than Carol is to figure out how to fix everything

Even Diabate — I mean I get why he’s happy, but I feel like realistically it would take at least a few months (if not a few years) to get jaded enough to the point where you’d just take advantage of the material pleasures. I’d be way too shaken and traumatized if I were him in that moment

I read a lot of sci-fi books, and watch a lot sci-fi tv. This is a basic premise you’ll find in a Disney channel tv movie. As it is currently presented, 2 episodes in. I said I’m down for a potential mystery to discover what they really want, what they can really do, or willing to do if that is explored further, but if it’s left as is, that isn’t gonna do it for me.

Been so long since I've seen him this effusive about something

They clearly in a stage of denial about it, and you can see this specifically in Laxmi or whatever her name is. She gets extremely upset every time someone references her son's state

Again jesus... any premise that you can find in any great show can be considered "basic", the least important thing in a narrative piece is in fact the premise. The sopranos isn't a great show because it's about mafia, is great because everything else in it.

And having said that... you still don't even know what the premise for this show actually is

In recent memory;
For All Mankind - Alternative history sci-fi. What if the race to the moon, wasn’t the end of the space race?

Foundation - Based on Isaac Asimov’s novel of the same name.

Dark Matter - what if there were alternate versions of you that tried to steal your life?

Scavengers Reign - Animation. A group of contractors marooned while surveying an alien world.

Pantheon - Animation. Deals with AI, Cyber consciousness, death/immortality. Not just the concepts of if, but the ethical and moral nature of it as well.

3 Body Problem - Based on the novel of the same name. The show is good, I personally am partial to the novel, but the show is different enough that you can enjoy them both for different reasons. Imo best to consume this completely blind, especially if you chose to read the novel. Imo it’s the best sci-fi trilogy of our generation. It is hardcore sci-fi.

Love, Death, & Robots - Animation anthology series.

The Expanse - Can’t go wrong with either the Tv show, or the novels. The Tv show only covers like the first 6 books iirc. Differences between the 2 isn’t as drastic as 3BP show vs novel, but the show combines a few characters from the novels into 1 but again can’t go wrong. Great show, great novels. As far as sci-fi TV shows, this is probably the best imo.

There’s a few more lemme know if you want em. These would
Be my top recommendations tho. Sci-fi genre been eating these last couple years
