I didn’t know Ronald D. Moore was involved with this and now I’m even more mad that a certain someone is watching this without me!

You might have a lot of work to do to catch up. She’s already ahead of us.

I do love those iconic Battlestar Galactica space shots, though. Makes me kind of want to re-watch that show.

My husband and I watched all 4 seasons of For All Mankind and really liked it. Good writing and good acting. I think there is going to be a 5th season.

Silo is really good, too.

Very excited for a 5th season. So hard to find good stuff to watch sometimes. Will check out Silo! I read the books. Often skeptical of the book-to-TV transition.

Different genre, but have you watched Slow Horses? The acting is great.

We love Slow Horses! We’ve read all the books and watched all the shows. Haven’t started the new season yet as we were waiting to come to a good stopping place with For All Mankind, which we did, at the end of season 2, which broke our fucking hearts!

I think I'd like this show for the reasons you are drawn to it, I love well written characters.

I feel like I'm constantly relearning this life lesson, adjusting my expectations and finding life experiences to be both so very ordinary but also strangely wonderful.

I do wonder though is this compounded for younger people by curated social media? Reality defined and distorted somewhat

Maybe it is harder for younger people, though I spend my fair share of time on various social media, too, often feeling bad about how much more accomplished and happier everyone else seems.
