Foundation

 

Based on Isaac Asimov's The Foundation Trilogy, another extremely ambitious project from AppleTV+ that pretty much defines the term "Space Opera". Jared Harris plays a scientist in a 12,000 year old Galactic Empire who creates an algorithm so complex it can predict the future and the future isn't good for Empire. Epic and extremely complex, the story spans many centuries and always seems to add more characters and locales as the show progresses, but if you can get by the complexity and confusing concepts, there is much to like here. The 2nd season isn't as strong as the first (its gets a bit Disney Star Warsy s2), but the third promises to be the best one yet. This probably wont be for everyone's taste, but it is definitely worth checking out and if your into hardcore sci-fi you need to watch it.
