Star City premieres on Apple TV this week, a spinoff of the space-race drama For All Mankind. Here’s what the first reviews for Star City are saying.
Later this week, For All Mankind’s season 5 finale will air on the same day that a new spinoff series launches.
Star City premieres this Friday, May 29 with its first two episodes, followed by weekly releases through July 10.
The new series follows the alt-history events of For All Mankind, but from the Soviets’ perspective. And the first reviews indicate it’s a very different kind of show.
These early reviews are largely positive, comparing the series favorably to its predecessor in many cases.
RadioTimes even says it’s better than For All Mankind, though most reviews put the two series more on even footing or avoid making quality comparisons since each is so distinct.
Personally, I’m excited to hear that Star City feels nothing like For All Mankind. I was concerned the show wouldn’t have enough originality to merit a watch, but the pivot to a darker, espionage-fueled thriller sounds great.
It’s also good news for anyone who’s never watched For All Mankind. Five seasons is a lot to catch up on, and several reviews noted that you definitely don’t need to see For All Mankind before watching Star City.
