Personally I kinda liked the first season. It’s better if you forget the original Asimov story and just watch it as its own thing because it diverges from it quite a bit.

Looking forward to see where they go after that ballsy season 1 ending. Lee Pace will continue to kill it no doubt.

    Thought the 1st season was pretty good, 7/10 normal rating, 9/10 IMDB-style rating. Never read the books (don’t know why), so that didn’t colour anything. Very excited to watch the new season, though I don’t even know when, our backlog is currently the final 3 episodes of BSG rewatch, Succession, From, Silo. Good thing it comes out weekly, that way there’s no rush to start it ;)

        7/10 when an average show is 5/10, 9/10 when the whole rating skews towards high values, on IMDB anything average gets 7-8 points.

        imdb uses a weighting system, which tends to make a 5/10 average show a 7/10, it makes sense if you read their reasoning for the algorithm as it helps with de-weighting 1/10 and 10/10 ratings that are generally unfounded and reactionary rather than considered and accurate.
