For All Mankind (2019)
I forgot to cancel my trial subscription to Apple TV, so more or less out of boredom I tried to click on For All Mankind and kill some time. Two days and 20 episodes later, I'm totally hooked. The simple idea of an alternate history, where the Soviets are the first to fly a flag on the moon and the space race is on, leads to an excellent blend of emancipatory drama and a kind of realistic Star Trek prequel. It's a nicely inclusive affair with lots of great strong female and ambivalent male characters that probably won't please those who like NASA as a bunch of space cowboys. However, if you're into Star Wars (the real ones), The Martian and First Man, this show is an absolute drug.
