Are there any science fiction TV series you are currently in the middle of watching? I'm sure there are plenty of people watching Silo. What else are you guys watching?

Personally I've been on a bit of a Star Trek Next Generation binge. I've also recently completed the Chinese version of Three Body Problem as well as the animated Three Body Problem which is actually just The Dark Forest.

The animated Three Body Problem was kind of a let down as they strayed from the source material in a weird way and made some aspects of it a comedy as well as a love story. Hopefully if it is renewed for a season 2 they get back on course and get to some of the good stuff. There are some scenes I would love to see animated. The trailer for it was so cool too. It seemed like they knew what they were doing.

Like a lot of people I presume I'm watching the season 2 of Star Trek Strange New Worlds. And it's good.

Is it any good? I watched season 1 of discovery and the first season of picard and those combined put me off so haven't bothered with any star trek stuff for a while.

Yup. Discovery was nonsense really, and while the only season of Picard that was good was the last one, SNW is awesome from the very start. It's almost like old star trek going down to planets in shuttles and stuff. Really enjoyable.

I'll need to check it out. They seem to want to turn star trek into an action focused thing now, I like some action but I also like sci fi that makes you think about life.

The Expanse is amongst the best Sci fi I've seen. If you haven't seen that I'd recommend it 100%.
