I've only seen the first episode so far, but Three-Body (the Chinese series) might be the ticket for my next hard-SF view.
However, Liu Cixin, author of the original books, is now strongly in disfavour for endorsing China's human rights abuses against the Uighur people. Those crimes are also why many in #SFF oppose this year's WorldCon being held in Chengdu - though others think this hypocritical because the US engages in rights abuses, too.
Nothing is ever simple with humans involved. #CoSoTV
@RainierRambler No, not idealistic at all! It's going to be a wild ride, transitioning from the optimism of For All Mankind to what I know is in store here, based on the books. But a range of perspectives helps us grow, no? Or at least keeps us from getting *too* cosy right where we are.

Very well said. I felt the same when I read the books!
