No we're not.
Definite Oklahoma City vibes, which I'm assuming was very intentional.

Either you're too young or you haven't watched episode 10

I bet they assumed you were still referring to episode 9
Probably. Though we recently discussed OKC with some of our new grad hires at work and they were not familiar with what had happened, so not impossible.

I haven't watched episode 10 yet, but that's crazy to me. I'm 36 and still remember that day well. In hindsight you really don't hear much about it so I can see how younger generations may not get it.
Watched season finale, what a great fun show. Can't wait for Season 4.
Still not sure I follow the storyline with the one brother, feels a little clunky and disjointed from what is an otherwise well put together, though totally unbelievable, show.

Hadn't watched 10 yet. But yeah definitely OKC vibes. Looks like they even patterned that one shot after the actual damage to the federal building.
Enjoyable season. Wasn't impressed with the time jump. The ones at the end of previous seasons were great (especially 80's to 90's Nirvana last season) but this one was just kind of meh.
Season 4 is approved so we'll get at least one more season!
Also loved the Heinlein nod with the title of episode 10.

PS - there are some spoilers i guess maybe. dont know how to redact so be warned.
i really loved the first two seasons - fantastic. i didnt really notice any of the woke efforts in any bad ways.... but that stuff started to overtake the whole show and detract from both the plot and the quality of the show.
women astronauts getting hired and put in the rotation and then *****ing constantly because of how unfair everything is
black dude has to wait till he gets to mars to decide it's time to tell the whole solar system that he likes to **** men instead of women.... ok. who cares. but now he gets a medal.
the two black characters who have been at the tip of the spear of the most privileged people on the entire planet their entire careers, manning the first mission to mars, having inside chats about how they are so downtrodden because they are black.
the nice house wife whose life choices turn to drug abuse, adultery with a child, divorce -- and those great choices suddenly make her a super billionaire business mogul running a mission to mars and a space program.
the ghetto uneducated girl on drugs who suddenly turns into the next Verner Von Braun level genius
the secretly gay president whose (white dude **** up) husband gets busted having an affair and becomes the hero.
north korea suddenly pops up with the first man on mars
white suburbia dudes become terrorists blowing up nasa for ... what... purpose or goal?
all the major **** ups and *******s seem to be the white dude characters in most modern hollywood stuff, and this is no exception
none of this is impossible, but the overall full court press on this bull**** gets tiring once it becomes so noticeable that it overrides the plot.
this is supposed to be a story of mankind doing something incredible and fulfilling its destiny, unlike the way the real world turned out. why turn it into the same bull*****

Definitely more woke angles this season but man you're really upset by all this. Live an let live. When I came to the realization that who the **** am I to judge anyone else my stress levels came WAY down.
where did you get the idea that i am really upset about it? I just commented that it is so ridiculous now that the show is suffering.Rocagnante said:cbr said:

the first 2 seasons were so much better.
Last two episodes were better than the rest of the season. They've jumped the shark more times than Happy Days though. I like it. I hate it. I want some more of it. Ugh!
.
Molly? Come on. She was my favorite character.
Sure hope Poole remembered to go get the gun when they left Danny at Bulhaenghan Gyegog ,or she just might find him waiting to ambush the next supply run.

Great ****in season. Full of silly nonsense. But man it was fun
That ending was dope
That ending was dope
Was just a little confused at the end. Did Molly die in the fire saving people or just sometime between 05 and 03 and they renamed JSC after her.
She died when she went back in.
That's a rather inglorious and vague end to a great character. I don't need to see the building collapse on her or anything but, ok.
The paper that was delivered talked about it.
Thought it was telegraphed pretty well. She's blind and stubborn as a mule. There was no way she was not going back into the rubble for more survivors. And the camera lingered on her disappearing into the smoke. Seemed obvious she wasn't going to come back.ChipFTAC01 said:

Growing up in Clear Lake, the alt history transfer of the bombing event and JSC name change hit me more emotionally than I expected. Hard to get NASA and how it impacted my childhood out of my psyche I suppose.
Looking forward to season 4!

Already causing irreparable damage to Mars.
I'm a clear lake kid too and totally agree. Part of the reason I enjoy the show so much.
As a fellow and still Clear Lake kid, the crystal blue waters of Clear Lake off Nassau Bay are still the most remarkable thing in the alt timeline.
Finally finished season 3. It got a little silly at times but was a lot of fun.
If they do the time jump to '03 to start the next season, they'll have to gloss over a lot of unresolved Mars stuff. But either way, I'm in. This show is a wild ride.
And rip Karen Baldwin. Too fine to go.

At least they have fewer cast members left who are in their 30s and 40s to pretend to be in their 70s and 80s.
Clear Laker here too. Had the same thoughts /
Finished season 1 last night. Will start season 2 today.
Tracy Stevens' sweater kittens are the most impressive heavenly body of the show. Holy moly!
