Featured review
Beautiful show
In Season 2, Hari Seldon emerges from the Prime Radiant, shocking Gaal and Salvor. Salvor's plan is to seek Hari's help to rescue their ship. The second episode follows the mother-daughter duo as they attempt to fly out of Water. Hari helps them after scolding Gaal for trapping him inside the Prime Radiant. Together, they successfully fly out of Synnax and embark on a new journey. The visuals in this season are impressive, leaving the first season behind. Episode 2 focuses on Hari Seldon, the prophet and second foundation he hopes to connect with. The second foundation is more complex to explain than initially thought, as it is assumed to exist but is not due to Gaal's failure to allow it to happen. In Trantor, Brother Day invites Queen Sareth to lunch with him and his brothers Dawn and Dusk to create an emotional attachment for their alliance. Queen Sareth questions Brother Day about the assassination attempt and wonders if he would be replaced with a similar-looking clone. Queen Sareth is an interesting character in the season, but her true intentions remain unknown. The upcoming episodes may reveal the answers, but defeating the Empire in his own home is challenging. In Sivenna, Brother Constant and Poly Verisof, true followers of Hari Seldon, are spreading the word of their prophet on the planet. They receive a message that Hari Seldon is returning and are called back to Terminus. Poly Verisof, who started his journey with Hari Seldon and witnessed him alive, is asked to manage the crowd when he returns to Terminus. The concept of a second foundation is complex for Gaal and Salvor, and they attempt to navigate through their visions using Prime Radiant. They discover that they are not the only telekinetics, as Mule appears in the future. Gaal discovers a mysterious name, Hober Mallow, which later appears on Terminus on the Vault, where Hari Seldon was expected to appear. Season 2 moves slowly, with no regular time jumps, but time works differently on each planet. The series hints at a planet within their reach that might have answers about Hober Mallow, a mystery. The Prophet, Dr. Hari Seldon, was supposed to appear on Terminus, but he did not, and Hober Mallow stole the show.
