Featured reviews
Its beginning to have the look and feel of an epic Sci-Fi series. The writers have come up with some good twists and turns and some very clever ways of keeping characters going. Anyone who has read the books should know that characters don't, in the main, stay around long. The Cleon genetic dynasty as a case in point. Clever. There does seem some constant negativity about not being Azimov's foundation. But Azimov's foundation was strongly routed in late 40's early 50's Americana. It would never translate directly to a modern audience.
I quote off the top of my head 'You already have a 100,000 followers on Terminus', 'Yes but not all are scientist, some are women and children'!
Really !

We see the threads of crisis bring everyone together on Terminus. Having changed the plot, it looks like we proceed on something like the book.
Meantime on Trantor, the story of Brother Dawn has some unexpected twists.
And may feed back in the final episode into the odd religious experience of Brother Day.

Please give Lee pace more time on the screen, and kill salvor for god sake. She struggles with basic emotions, basic reactions. I don't know why we don't put people who really give the show a real value more. The most annoying thing in this show is salvor and her boyfriend they are more fake than tiktok.
So I thought I'd venture to the very end as the VFX and costume department truly deserve the recognition, not forgetting Lee Pace and Jared Harris. However the rest is just awful, the acting from Harvey and Llobell is just horrible, the writing is incoherent and woeful, anything that needs a narrator usually means struggling badly. So who does give theses 10/10 scores?
This episode was amazing. Not 1 but 2 huge twists. There were things that were total surprise. A lot of action too. If you ignore the crying from the book readers, the story telling is really great.

- TriviaThis is the first episode where Isaac Asimov's credit in the main titles appears in the same font size as all other credits. Up until this episode his "based on the novels by" credit was noticeably smaller in size.
- GoofsIt makes absolutely no sense for the Thespin fighters to leave their ships when they get to Terminus. They have total control of the battlefield from the air. By leaving them they surrender all control to one pilot who could easily just be shot by the Anachreons to win the battle. They've also lost contact with one their fighters and know that the enemy leader is missing. They would surely have connected those two events and known she was coming.
- Quotes
Gaal Dornick: History isn't fact. It's narrative, one carefully curated and shaped. Under the pen strokes of the right scribe, a villain becomes a hero, a lie becomes the truth.
