Lee Pace, who plays Brother Day, is exceptional in this show. Been a fan of his since he was a piemaker

He's exceptional in almost everything he's in, especially Halt and Catch Fire which seems a bit underappreciated. He really carried that one at times.

Oh yeah, he had major Steve Jobs energy for that entire show

He was definitely trying to give that vibe but there's also an episode where he sees an unofficial demo of a Macintosh at a hotel room at COMDEX and it's such a religious epiphany for his character. The show is fun because they speedrun many modern computing milestones but it can be a bit too much because of that too.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Holy shit…glass shattered. I fucking loved Pushing Daisies and I never even made that connection with how mean he is in Foundation comparatively.

I was about halfway through season 2 before I realized it was the same guy. He's got really amazing range

Yeah, I love the genetic dynasty to the point point it’s my favourite part of the show. I don’t like the foundation that much though, it deviated too much from the books not always with the best result: while I see the logic of the S2 crisis, the ending was disappointing and imo didn’t make that much sense and was the worst option possible

I’m curious though how they will introduce the mule and what will it mean for the genetic dynasty and the foundation ngl
