Thank you #FANdation, We are back with another recap of our favorite “The Future is effed up” show Foundation Season 2 Episode 3. I’m your host, Anthony, and I will do my best to be your guide in this far-out show as we’re picking up where Episode 2 ended with Gaal and Salvor reeling over what they learn about the future with The Mule, The Cleonic dynasty meeting the in-laws, and everything going on with the first foundation.
This episode is titled “King and Commoner” which seems to continue the trend of double entendres in the title with one part referring to what we see with the intergalactic thief Halbor Mallow and also with the cold war between Brother Day and Belrios. That doesn’t even scratch the surface of what we see happen with Hari and I can’t wait to dive into it.
Synopsis: More than a century after the season one finale, tension mounts throughout the galaxy in “Foundation” season two. As the Cleons unravel, a vengeful queen plots to destroy Empire from within. Hari, Gaal, and Salvor discover a colony of Mentalics with psionic abilities that threaten to alter psychohistory itself. The Foundation has entered its religious phase, promulgating the Church of Seldon throughout the Outer Reach and inciting the Second Crisis: war with Empire. The monumental adaptation of “Foundation” chronicles the stories of four crucial individuals transcending space and time as they overcome deadly crises, shifting loyalties and complicated relationships that will ultimately determine the fate of humanity.
From storyteller David S. Goyer, the expansive global hit will debut on Apple TV+ on July 14, 2023 with one episode, followed by new episodes weekly, every Friday, through September 15. Based on Isaac Asimov’s award-winning stories, the series features an international cast led by Emmy-nominated actors Jared Harris and Lee Pace, alongside rising stars Lou Llobell and Leah Harvey.
