Very much on the fence with continuing after watching the first 3 episodes. Does it pick up steam? The only character i'm all that interested in is Kayce.
Stick with it. It’s worth it.

Get out now. It’s a terrible show, but sucks you in with cool visuals of cowboys doing stuff against beautiful landscapes and soapy drama.

For All Mankind S3:01


Kinda bloated with events that were obvious 30 seconds in and the Margo subplot is still awful, but it's cool to see how they are stretching it across generations so that the character's involvement still make sense as decades elapse. The inclusion of additional nations in the space race and billionaires with commercial space flight is really smart as well.

Okay but there were finally boobs in episode 3. I’d expect full penetration by episode 7.

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The show is thoroughly brilliant. But I'd say go with your instinct here. It's an extremely difficult watch and I don't think you'd be able to enjoy the artistry through the subject matter.
