How this season is filed
Asimov at tentpole scale: empires collapsing in slow, gorgeous motion while Hari Seldon's math tries to outrun human mess. Apple's sci-fi swing spends like a movie and argues like a seminar. Watch for Lee Pace's clone-emperor tragedy, the book-purist wars that became part of the spectacle, and production design that looks like prophecy.
