Are there any science fiction TV series you are currently in the middle of watching? I'm sure there are plenty of people watching Silo. What else are you guys watching?

Personally I've been on a bit of a Star Trek Next Generation binge. I've also recently completed the Chinese version of Three Body Problem as well as the animated Three Body Problem which is actually just The Dark Forest.

The animated Three Body Problem was kind of a let down as they strayed from the source material in a weird way and made some aspects of it a comedy as well as a love story. Hopefully if it is renewed for a season 2 they get back on course and get to some of the good stuff. There are some scenes I would love to see animated. The trailer for it was so cool too. It seemed like they knew what they were doing.

Been watching Silo, loved the books and really like the show. The author had a lot of input into his season. He wrote the first but as a short story and he was glad to be able to revisit the early parts and flesh it out more. Good to hear there’s a second season. I’m eagerly awaiting Foundation season 2 which starts next month! I’ve been watching Black Mirror in small doses. I do want to check out the New Trek sometime soon, too.

Foundation was the biggest let down. It has no connection to books, except for its name.

That’s too bad. I never read the books so I haven’t had to compare the two.
