I believe the music is always the cue for the year. While technology's pace changes, it seems in the show's reality songs come out when they come out (though it also seems some artists live and die at different times, so that changes things). Going from Soundgarden's Black Hole Sun this is 1994.Yeah, and even though it looks pretty modern in that trailer, I think it's actually supposed to be the early to mid-nineties. A lot of technology is more advanced in that timeline, because of the ongoing Cold War and Space Race.
Well, I would certainly hope that S2 was no worse than S2!I’m looking forward to S3! I thought S2 was as good or better than S2.
I believe it starts this Friday.What’s the premiere date again?
In the earlier season threads I mentioned how this should be a show in my wheelhouse but that the story they’re telling is different from my expectations of what I’d like to see. There was enough from seasons 1 and 2 to enjoy that I don’t quite consider it wasted time, but in general it felt like the ratio of ordinary human conflict that could be in any show relative to space exploration was too high - I was hoping for a show more tilted towards realistically portrayed scientifically plausible exploration led by dedicated professionals without personal conflicts, and was surprised that space often takes a backseat to earthbound struggles. Knowing now that that is simply what the show is, I intend to start the new season but keep it on a much shorter leash - if I start losing interest I won’t force my way through it. But I’m hoping to enjoy it!
Yes indeed!Well, that was quite the start to the new season. #Tethering
