What are you Watching? (August 2023)
(lemmy.world)
Hello /c/sciencefiction lemmies. I've put together an image of some of the most discussed shows from July 2023.
Are there any science fiction TV series you are currently in the middle of watching or plan on watching in August?
Here is last months post. What are you Watching? (July 2023)
I want to watch foundation and silo, but want to try reading them first. Unfortunately, I don't think I have any good sci-fi to watch at the moment other than those two.
You can always watch season 1 of silo, then read the books. It’s going to be awhile until we get season 2, and season 1 only covers book 1.
Frankly, you'll enjoy Foundaton more if you don't read the books first. Otherwise, you'll be sitting there shaking you head wondering why they continuously mangle the core concept of the books so badly, despite characters occasionally directly stating how it works (only for the same episode otherwise showing utter disregard for said statement)
Lol, sounds like maybe I just shouldn't watch the show then.
The Empire focused half of the show that was mostly made up specifically for the show is EXCELLENT tho, and really worth watching.
They should have just stuck with that and called the show Empire IMHO. Would have been an instant classic.
Yeah, the rest of it is hot garbage - rambling uninspired dialogue, bad actors, story line all over the place. Stick with the books IMO.
