    I find it kind of sad that there wasn't anything on TV during the 2010-late 2015 time period with space travel in it

    As someone who enjoyed the Game of Thrones craze on TV during the 2010s I look back at the 2010-2020 time period and find it kind of sad there wasn't anything on TV with space travel during the 2010-late 2015 time period and there wasn't anything on TV with space travel in it from 2010-2020 that...

    If 90s Disney decided to make a "Space Opera" movie that showed what they think the future would look like it would probably look like "Mass Effect"

    The first Mass Effect, in fact. The first Mass Effect had a brighter color palette. Doesn't this look like it would fit well with EPCOT? Isn't this style Y2K futurism? It would be cool if we got more optimistic sci fi that was not Star Trek. I do love "Star Trek Strange New Worlds" but...

    Would we live in a world that would look like "Tomorrowland" or "EPCOT" if the "Space Race" never ended?

    What would the world be like if NASA spending stayed at 60s levels?

    Would we live in a world that would look like "Tomorrowland" or "EPCOT" if the "Space Race" never ended?

    I see all this amazing tech emerging like "Vertical Farming", "Lab Grown Meat", "Fusion Power", "Fully Reusable Rockets", and "3D Printed Houses" that are resistant to wildfires and could be built faster and cheaper than traditional housing. And that makes me wonder what our world be...

    We should have gotten better space adventure movies than the J.J. Abrams Star Trek and Star Wars movies during the late 2000s to mid 2010s

    We should have gotten better space fantasy movies than the J.J. Abrams Star Trek and Star Wars movies during late 2000s and early to mid 2010s! Who else here agrees? Imagine a timeline where instead of those movies we have had gotten excellent adaptations of sci fi that had a sense of wonder...

    It is kind of sad how there wasn't a big World War 2 TV show that was of HBO quality in the mid to late 2010s

    It looks like something we should have gotten during the 2015-2018 time period. It looks like it was supposed to be made in 2014. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/hbo-developing-third-wwii-miniseries-413632/ What has kept the talented people who made shows and movies like "Apollo...

    Has anyone become much more excited by science and technology during the past two years?

    3 years ago I didn't care about humanity going to the Moon or Mars but then the quarantine hits and I check out Apple TV out of boredom as well as curiosity. Then the West Coast "Heat Dome" of 2022 happens. I didn't care about stuff like "Global Warming", "Climate Change", nuclear power...

    Why don't we have anything big and exciting on TV in late November and December?

    I think it would cool if we were getting promos for a fantasy or sci fi show that would air in November and December 2023 and the promos were surprising and dazzling everyone making it "The Big Thing" of late Fall and Winter of 2023. It could be a space opera set in the aftermath of a...

    Why does Europe and the Commonwealth nations produce better television actors and actresses?

    The vast majority of "Game of Thrones" is British. Back in 2019 I never watched any of Joel Kinnaman's movies. When I first saw the trailer for the first season I was like "Who is that All American squared jaw hero looking guy". I then find out the All American astronaut's actor came from...

    There needs to be more animation aimed at adults that are not comedy

    Surprised a network like AMC is making a show like this. I imagine space opera type shows would be cheaper if done in animation instead of live action. I think it would be cool to have a serious sci fi animated show that was of HBO quality but sadly it seems like there is still the...

    Why did space travel and the future became less exciting during the early 2010s?

    Back during the quarantine of 2020 I checked out Apple TV out of boredom as well as curiosity and one show in particular has reignited an interest for space and the future. I wish we had a show like this during the 2011-2014 time period! I was just an idealistic college student back then but...

    Apple TV's "For All Mankind"

    Looks more exciting! Looks more like a sci fi show now.

    Why was society more vapid in the early 2010s?

    I wish we had optimistic space adventure on TV during the 2010-2015 time period. The absence of anything space related on TV from 2015-2019 is justified due to how good "Game of Thrones" was but what was up with American TV circa 2012-2015? It was like we hit the idiot button! Not just...

    What kind of people are into soap operas on ABC?

    I am not usually interested in ABC shows nor do I know anyone who watches them but I am curious. I heard back in the early 2010s shows on ABC like "Once Upon A Time" had viewerships past 10 million viewers in America alone. I was under the impression that the average viewer of an ABC show are...

    Why were the 90s and 2000s more creative?

    Some awesome pop culture was created in the 90s and 2000s. TV experienced a "Golden Age". "The Wire", "The Sopranos", "Battlestar Galactica", "Babylon 5", "Avatar: The Last Airbender", "Mad Men", etc. Disney even made video games. But they eventually quit...
