After a two-year wait, one of the most ambitious sci-fi TV shows returns: Foundation season 2 is set to bring back the galaxy-spanning Isaac Asimov adaptation when it lands on Friday, July 14.
Streaming: Apple TV Plus
Debut: Friday, July 14
Episode: 10
Set tens of thousands of years in the future, Foundation follows the titular colony on the edge of the universe, which was set up by mathematician Hari Seldon (Jared Harris) who created an algorithm to predict the future.
The colonists need to weather many crises, including the collapse of the galactic empire and opportunistic neighbors, if they hope to survive, with many different heroes and thinkers bringing their skills to help the cause.
Following many different characters and plot lines in different parts of the galaxy, Foundation is an ambitious and exciting sci-fi show. And being a very loose adaptation of the source material, fans of the book series it's based on have little idea of what's in store for Foundation season 2, so it's worth tuning in.
So here's how to watch Foundation season 2, wherever you are in the galaxy.
