I decided to re-watch  For All Mankind...



Another Apple TV show I was fortunate to catch. I was so impressed with this series, and wish I could see more than than whats available so far. From what I understand there is another season coming.

It had everything a show should have in order to capture my attention and retain it, especially the cliffhangers at the end of each episode that would want me to keep on watching it. I really binged out on this the first time around.

I love What-If movies and alternate timeline stories with all its complications. For All Mankind has a brilliant premise and the execution of it is done incredibly well. The show presents an alternative history whereby the Soviets won the race to space and were the first ones to land on the moon.

For a nation who is obsessed with being first in everything, such as the USA, this is obviously a blow. The first 20 minutes of the show is a great piece in demonstrating the impact of being second on the nation.

The craftsmanship of combination between old footage of the moon landing and recordings of Nixon ranting about the Soviets beating us to the moon are so real you start to believe this actually took place.

For writers it’s a great example how this could be done in an elegant way. In some of the episodes you can recognize famous sentences, such as  “Failure is not an option” but now get a new interpretation to them

For All Mankind raises the question of what does it mean being second, how does it feel when you know you have the chance to be first but instructed to wait, due to other reasons.

I gave the show full marks. I would highly recommend it.

Verdict – 10/10 in my book. You wont be disappointed, I wasn't. Loved it ...

There are 3 series: I started watching it last night, but fell asleep after about 20 minutes. What I saw looked a good start, got very good reviews. Apple are promoting it as a top show on the home page. Try again tonight, if there isn;t any footy on maybe make it through the first episode

There are 4 seasons, and they are all avaible here. I have read that they are making season 5. I loved this series.

Didn't read the article as it contains spoilers and I still have 2 episodes to go. It does say season 2 was filmed at the same time as the first so Disney have it sitting there ready to go
