  1. Right, not going to continue watching #StarCity - what a load of dribble. It's so cartoonishly anti-communist that it's baffling how the Soviets got to space in the first place, why with being so ruthless and incompetent.

  2. As I’m wrapping up yet another Empire/Foundation novel I went to Apple TV to see if the next season is out. I saw Star City again. This is the Soviet side of the alt-history For All Mankind. I haven’t disliked Season 4 so much I don’t plan to watch 5. Until tonight I put Star City on the shelf by association too. If Episode 1 is any indication this series looks very good #scifi #StarCity #space

  3. If Anna Maxwell Martin doesn't win some major award for #starCity it'll be a travesty

  4. CW: Potential Spoilers For S1 of Star City

    Anybody want to talk about #StarCity? Because what the FUCK did I just watch? (Largely complimentary but with a good dose of derogatory)

  5. #HeartstopperForever is great and such a good closing for the series, but it's kinda weird they recast Nick's mom with Anna Maxwell Martin (who I just saw in #StarCity as ruthless and cruel KGB officer). Always loved Olivia Colman in that role.

  6. Just watched the finale of #StarCity (the #ForAllMankind spin-off) and damn, if it isn't the best piece of television this year, I don't know what is.

    Literally gave me goosebumps.

  8. imagine FAM where the only avenue for you the viewer to feel good is to reflect on how youre a free american and not one of those miserable foreigners oppressed by a regime thats probably their own fault in the first place.

    this was some of the most vile, xenophobic propaganda campaigns toadying up to robber baron elites that ive seen. i kept hoping it would execute a clever turn but no. its just a hash of suffering and trauma trying to tell you youve got it better.

  9. finished Star City.

    if youre a fan of For All Mankind and wondering if you might enjoy Star City, just imagine FAM with every trace of joy and wonder stripped out of it.

    imagine a season of FAM where no character ever smiles at another character unless they are gloating or hiding a shameful secret.

  10. Finished #StarCity. Good stuff, a bit bleak. Maybe unfairly so — kind of a very black and white “nothing in the Soviet Union was ever good” picture.

  11. CW: Star City season finale spoiler

    One of the things I like about For All Mankind is that it's a scientifically mostly-believable alternative history - and up until the final episode of the first season of the spinoff Star City I still felt it was mostly the same there.

    Then it just all fell apart :/ I guess for the wider audience it doesn't matter but it really took me out of immersion during multiple parts of the storyline. Unnecessarily so I think too.

    Oh well. Still a good show.

  12. The STAR CITY season finale, as well as the entire season, features some of the most riveting drama, action, intrigue, and even romance that I’ve ever seen on the screen, big or small. 
    Everybody needs to start watching it so we can get another season! Stellar. 
    Apple TV+ has done it again.

  13. Star City may be my favourite sci-fi series of the year! A brutalist exploration of an alternate space race! #StarCity #AppleTV

  14. CW: Spoilers for Star City finale

    Holy fucking shit, what a ride! The best space drama since season two of For All Mankind. And Finland was mentioned. As they say, torilla tavataan!

  15. Just in time for the season finale of #StarCity on #AppleTV, I spoke with the series' director of photography about the process that he and his teammates went through to re-create the gritty surroundings of the #Soviet #space program in the 1960s and 1970s. It tracks with my memories of long-ago visits to Star City and other space sites in #Russia. cosmiclog.com/2026/07/09/how-s

  16. How ‘Star City’ reimagined the Soviet space effort
    How do you capture the mood of the 1960s space race in a fictional universe where the Soviets beat the Americans to the moon?

    The American side of the story was told in "For All Mankind," an Apple TV series that concluded its fifth season in May. N

  17. Caught up with #StarCity yesterday and now I'm on the edge of my seat for the finale on Friday. For a spin-off series it goes above and beyond. I may not like #apple anymore but damn #appletv is knocking it out of the park.

  18. Poor Rhys Ifans. His characters keep ending up in bad prisons. Let's hope the Chief Designer has a better outcome than Otto Hightower.
