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 properly cover them. Join us next week for a regular-sized episode.
We’re about a week out from the premiere of the Apple TV+ epic sci-fi series, Foundation, which means it’s time to talk about the trailers we’ve seen, our history with the source material, expectations for the series adaptation, and the format of our weekly coverage, among other things. Join us for the preview today and come back for our coverage of the first three episodes this Monday.

This week we talk about the first 2 episodes of Ted Lasso’s latest season, the first Foundation novel and a bit about our hopes / expectations for the Apple TV+ series, Schmigadoon!, The Pacific, Zola, and Shadow and Bone. Plus, we answer questions from our Patreon “Executive Producers” about our plans for future coverage and whether we think great long-form stories on TV are killing shorter-form stories in movies.
