Hello /c/sciencefiction lemmies. I’ve put together an image of some of the most discussed shows from July 2023.
Are there any science fiction TV series you are currently in the middle of watching or plan on watching in August?
Here is last months post. What are you Watching? (July 2023)
They Cloned Tyrone is a surprise for me. Great modern scifi/blaxploitation film, though I have about 30 minutes left to finish.
Finally finding the time to finishAndor and what the fuck?! How is it so good???
Andor is SOOOOO GOOD. Andy Serkis straight up made me cry. (I have the last couple of episodes still to go so no spoilers pls lol)
But the characters, the writing, the acting, the storylines and the theeeeeemmes omg. It’s like a dramatic embodiment of Seeing Like a State.
One Way Out. ONE WAY OUT.
I’ve been binging Lower Decks and looking forward to the new season, it’s really a solid show and is definitely more than it seems.
A friend wanted to show my SO and I Twelve Monkeys (the TV series) badly enough to buy the whole thing as a box set, so the three of us have been working our way through it, we’re in season 2 now - it’s been a lot of fun
Recently started a TNG rewatch and was surprised how many good episodes were actually in seasons 1 and 2.
Edit: Why did autocorrect turn seasons into dragons?
Good Omens, just finished like candy, Lexx, struggling, worth it ? compare to Andromeda S1…
Dunno if Lexx is really worth it tbh. The original movies were worth watching just because it was so weird and different.
But if you were on the fence after those, well it doesn’t really change. Just season after season of the same sort of plots…if you like that, it’s great. If you don’t, it’s gonna get old really fast.
I rewatched all of Andromeda recently, and after a season and a half is was mostly awful, but it was occasionally entertaining.
I rewatched the first Lexx movie, remembered why I never finished the show the first time around, and moved on to something else.
Yeah, I watched Andromeda, hence the comparison to S1 (which was OK and of the era). Maybe I use it to put me to sleep, like first wave…
