S01E09 - The First Crisis
Mixed opinions on this one. I liked S01E09 "The First Crisis" a whole lot more than A.Ron. For me, the acting really sold me on this episode, both Terrence Mann and Cassian Bilton.

-
S01E06 - Death and the Maiden
This episode is more action-heavy than the previous ones and the potential consequences for Terminus are frightening. But maybe only half as frightening as the consequences that a certain artificial life form might experience after bowing to her moon goddess right in front of her clone god. Check...

S01E03 - The Mathematician's Ghost
We really enjoyed the ambitious approach to storytelling that Foundation is employing in its third episode, "The Mathematician's Ghost".

-
S01E01 & E02 - The Emperor's Peace & Preparing to Live
Apple released the first two episodes of their sci-fi epic "Foundation" this week and "epic" is exactly what they were. There are so many visual and narrative intricacies to dig into in these two hours of TV. That's probably why it took us as much time as Apple spent making the episodes, to...
