Synopsis:

Based on the award-winning novels by Isaac Asimov, Foundation chronicles a band of exiles on their monumental journey to save humanity and rebuild civilization amid the fall of the Galactic Empire.

Okay, so there are only two of the ten episodes in this series are currently available to watch. New episodes will drop weekly on Fridays.

However, I’ve watched 6/10, and Ryan has watched 10/10.

We’ve both previously read this sprawling galactic-political yarn (comparable to another sci-fi epic soon to hit theaters: Dune), so we both have a frame of reference for this.

Let’s talk epic science fiction television, shall we?

**NOTE: as we are discussing the series generally and not in an episode-specific way, we should not be running afoul of any episodic embargo dates.

We do not plan to review each episode individually.

Cool?**
