Show continues to be good across the board. It's an ideal balance between austere and goofy.

Fair, yeah, I wasn't responding to the larger debate, just that particular line. I kinda skim this thread sometimes because of all the speculation.

Well, the Apple TV+ numbers are not great. I'd imagine anything that's getting a decent amount of audience traction and critical success is going to be renewed at this point.

Our only hope is that Clone Emperor Bezos XIV is a fan and picks it up once Apple TV+ goes away.

withak posted:Was Dawn fumbling to not be left-handed in the dinner scene? Possibly not a good sign in your perfect genetic dynasty. No. That's showing the clones diverging in personality. The young Cleon is meant to ape the motions, actions, and words of the older generations in order to condition him to be as similar as possible to them. This Brother Dawn is proving to be deviant in that regard. It's showing that despite all efforts, each of these men is not the same, no matter how hard they try. Much like the argument between Day and Dusk, it's highlighting the fracturing of the emperor's singularity of rule, not a physical flaw in the cloning. This is reinforced with him being slow on the uptake several times in the episode, learning to act like the others .

Isn't psychohistory basically just proto-chaos theory?

The show is starting to wear on me. I'm going to watch at least all of this season if not more, but it's so languid and melodramatic while also being breathless and stiff, with underwritten characters, terrible dialogue, and really rough pacing. It's pretty as gently caress and fairly fun even when it's bad, but I was definitely hoping for something a little less dumb. Hopefully it's the sort of show that can steadily improve and come into its own over the course of another season. I'm still enjoying it, but it's real janky.

4000 Dollar Suit posted:I'm enjoying this show a lot but the Terminus settlement plot just isn't grabbing me, the other 2 plot lines are great, I like Kilika planet and everything about the empire or Gaal doing the Naomi thing on the ship. Agreed that Terminus just isn't compelling to me at all. If they were showing me a bunch of well-meaning scientists trying to make a utopia based on rationality but failing because they're too human or something, I could see myself getting into it. But it's just an ultra-generic space colony focusing on a dull character. And I can find nothing to like about the terrorist revenge story. I like Gaal's story moving forward, but found her backstory this week to be a chore. What was I supposed to get out of it that I didn't already get in the first episode? Empire is definitely the standout storyline to me and feels like it captures the scope out of this show that I want. Though I wish we were seeing it collapse over far more generations. feedmyleg fucked around with this message at 11:50 on Oct 16, 2021 |
