For All Mankind

Season 2

Season 1 was tolerable, but season 2 is boring and mind-numbing. Got to the first 15 minutes of episode 3 and couldn't take it anymore. Goodbye.

This show started with promise - the Russians getting to the moon before the Americans, but they're now changing history. Reagan president in 1976?! Margret Thatcher also PM in 76?! Emails and colour monitors in the late 70's. Please.

@speeddemon Weren't they already changing history with Russians getting to the moon before the Americans?

@andre-d-dias That's true, but that wouldn't change the entire timeline/history of the rest of the world.

@speeddemon It was worth getting through the first hald to get to the last 2 episodes.

@speeddemon Season 2 is set in 1983. The time jump is very obvious.

@speeddemon The Russians getting to the moon first can change how history unfolded. If Russia and America continued to have a space race all these decades and never stopped technology could have exploded much faster then it did in our real history. Technology gets more advanced more quickly during war times, or in this case two countries battling it out for control of space. So colored monitors and emails could have been around much earlier.

As for Reagan and Margret Thatcher there is a time jump in between seasons. Season 2 is set in the 80s when these two people were leaders but if anything does change the timeline of the rest of the world, one small different divergent in the timeline can effect the greater history of the rest of the world. In the show Sergei Korolev never died in the 60s, he was the father of the space program for Russia (in our real history), in the show he lives and was successful in getting Russia to the moon first.

@viperdu-vark Somehow I missed the bit about the time jump...must have been eliminated from the show I was watching. As for for the other stuff.. nice perspective. Thanks for sharing.

@speeddemon man looks like u missed a big chunk of setup and because if that everything looked that weird for you. It's actually built very nicely. Recommend you clear your slate and watch S2 again, it's good.

@stormsm Maybe I will give it another shot... I seem to have had a bad feed from Kodi that just screwed everything up. It happens, but that's the price you pay sometimes for free TV.
