Agreed. Getting season 3 of Foundation is literally the only thing Eddy Cue needs to do. Hope he's reminded every day. Once Foundation is done, they can shut down all the Apple TV+ servers.

Rather put the money into an Apple Robot. The robot needs to have Eddye Cue eyes and that constant grin.

Silo is also really good

I hope they deviate from the books because I found the second book really jarring.

I'm curious how the next season will go, because from memory, they still have the back half of the first book to go, and fuck-all happens in it. Will they commit to a prequel season or try to string some plot together while telling the prequel story through flashbacks?

They did, people died who should be alive. People are alive who died in the books.

And there are extra characters who are not in the books at all.

So I'm pretty sure they're adapting heavily just to avoid the second and third book things.

So is the Big Door Prize (not strictly sci-fi, but asks some really good questions about how we see ourselves as people)

It’s too dark. I can’t watch it on my crappy TV

I disliked the ending of Silo so much it ruined the rest of the series for me.

The ending of the book series or just the TV adaptation?

I haven't read the books but I've heard a lot of people say the ending of book 3 sucks a lot, so I'm assuming GP means the books

Dunno why people say it sucks, it's (no real spoilers) a genre staple ending pretty much. Leaves stuff open for a sequel, as they do, but still finishes off the main plot.

Just the TV show I haven't read the books

It'll get real interesting in the next two seasons (I've read the books). The world is really cool but story-wise the books do stuff you can't do on TV, so we'll see how they can wrangle it.
