It's worth the effort if you like sci-fi. 

I don't know if I've ever seen a sci-fi series that I didn't at least mildly enjoy. Huge sci-fi fan overall.

I’m going to reread the book and then watch. I’ve heard the show is good.

Yeah, their marketing sucks. For All Mankind is maybe the greatest sci-fi show ever, and hardly anyone knows it exists.

Finishing the first season now. This show is absolutely incredible

Maybe one of the strongest starts to a series. It drops off, but still very, very good. Then the Spacey stuff came out and we got robbed of a true ending.

 The Sci-Fi show? If so yes, too bad it was cut short to 2 seasons

It just started. They’ve already announced it’s only two seasons?

There was apparently a show with the same name that aired on SyFy circa 2015.

Sorry, no, there was a space SciFi show back in 2015 that was on CW  called Dark Matter, really good, only 3 seasons  


It’s free streaming on CW app or Freevee  worth a watch if you like space scifi  


Different show

Is that the one where the crew all wakes from stasis and doesn't even remember their own names?  I liked it.  Definitely would have watched more seasons, but at least it sort of had an ending.

They announced it before the finale. But the strike killed them getting it out in 2023. So should be coming in the fall/winter.

I thought S1 was a little out there and slow at times. But they really wrapped it up amazingly and I was completely invested. I think binging would’ve made the experience better, but we started when it was episode 3, so only got to binge the start, then it was week to week.

Got it, I can see that. I watched it basically over the course of a week so it kept moving, and the last 3-4 episodes were fantastic.

Just finished the 1st episode of the 3rd season. 


The end of the second got me right in the feels.
