[@Pokadot101]

I'm insanely jealous of Daniel's lashes.

[@TheMoviePodcast]

we all are.

[@jackiel1998]

He's got pretty eyes

[@The_Curious_Cat]

Only his lashes? He has such beautiful eyes and smile.

[@nicolawiekamp5559]

my first thoughts! lol

[@tiborsramek]

these two are carrying the best show out there right now

[@Ka_T_ya]

Lee Pace is amazing when he plays anything but especially a character in power ! I live and breathe for Thranduil , but I love seeing him as Cleon as well! Honestly he’s so charismatic I root for his characters even if they are not “ the good guy”.

[@morganaravens]

I love how Lee and Laura play off each other. Its so cute!

[@Jean_grey159]

Great show, great actors.

[@dreamer2260]

They're both fantastic in the show. Demerzel's story and character probably the most compelling, intriguing and tragic. But her, Day and Seldon are what makes the show worth watching.

[@middleagedbaldguy6774]

Laura Birn was fucking sublime in the last three episodes.

[@The_Curious_Cat]

I know this is cliché to say nowadays. But such an underrated show. Only learned about Foundation after seeing VFX Artist's React when Season 2 was coming out. And I was surprised how this show is not more talked about. The plot, the intricate story. The characters. The VFX's. The actors. It's my favorite sci-fi show by far.

[@t-mac1236]

These two made me stick with foundation. Amazing actors and insanely beautiful people. Part of their magnetism is of course their astounding acting but also…look at them…the type of people you can just stare at for hours

[@pboytrif1]

What an amazing Season 2, last few episodes were a masterclass in directing and acting! These 2 should win awards

[@altar7885]

Knowing that Lee Pace is like 2m tall, he definitely has one of the most incredible physiques among actors. Ideal for playing a genetically perfect being I guess.

[@mikkojuhani7704]

Yes it really takes more effort to get ripped at those heights.

[@CKPill]

2 just finished for me and it hurts waiting for season 3. One of my all time favorite book series, at first i was taken aback by differences with book, but the the show in its entirety is so well done i have now embraced and enjoy those differences that complement the book series. Bravo well done.

[@Jean_Genie]

My GOD Lee is looking soooo good!

[@shrutefarms4741]

They are both AMAZING!

[@runforrestrun1965]

Season 2 is looking so much better than season 1! Very different from the books but I can understand the changes needed for a visual medium.

[@UberCritic]

I just cannot get enough of this show, I cannot wait until season 3. Phenomenal show, amazing world building. It takes a little while to get the hang of all the time jumps but man, its such a good show to sink your teeth into.

[@hasssna]

Foundation S02..................ooouf the bar was so high that you feel fullfilled at the end you don't need to watch anything after that for a while !! seriously those two were so mind boggling to say the least Lee's Cleon was like a king in a play his walk his lines his attitude .....and Laura's role just what in lights name !! the twist at the end of the season was just nuts !! A big Congrats and thanks to all who worked on this masterpiece of season ! I really can't wait for the next Season hopefully !!

[@WildHorseProductions]

Having watched this just now i cant believe how this isnt more popular.

[@kenwood6802]

When interviewers go elsewhere, Lee Pace is a master of tie-ins & redirecting to put the interviews back on track. He knows why he's there.

[@mustardegg2]

Halt and Catch Fire and Foundation are two of the most underwatched and underappreciated shows ever...

[@dr_jaymz]

My TV watching is like a year behind so only just getting to this. These two are so brilliantly cast in this series - they are perfect for the roles and its so well done. I wasn't sure that the tiny accent she has was really her natural accent but it is. And because its difficult to place thats another reason it works so well in the show.

[@DouglasRosser]

I needed another streaming service like I needed another hole in my head, but I got 3-months of Apple TV free and this freakin show got me hooked at EPISODE 1. Lee chews on the scenery and Laura has such subtlety. Dammit!

[@nataliazen]

I got apple tv free for 3 months, started this series right away. I’ll always see Lee Pace as Thranduil, but damn! He’s a very convincing emperor.

[@joey4691]

Performances are exquisite. The most stunning SF.

[@dougbailey2673]

Way to go guys - landed some awesome guests!

[@AndreLindo]

It’s such an interesting contrast. Where he has to play the same person, with slightly different personalities and the she has to play the exact same person for 25,000 years. Just awesome

[@darrylmars]

Best show on TV right now. Demerzel crying made me think of "tears in the rain."

[@SolidRollin]

Love the show and both actors are terrific in their roles.

[@clutch2827]

Laura Birn is the show.

[@Avex675]

I really love their acting in this series ❤❤ So saiked for s2e10 ❤💎

[@nemomarc7841]

Great show i see the first episode of season 2 .

[@tjsrisawat3777]

I cant believe this shows is not talk about / treated like game of throne .

[@gp7493]

I KNOW It's so good

[@evilydal]

Ikr, i also watched House of the Dragon, but damn this show does not disappoint like GOT did.

[@divineflu34567]

Fr but shows like this and the expanse

[@Jyeoi]

Lee’s acting is so magnetic… cant take yr eyes off him

[@luismachado6264]

I will say they are both really good actors. Phenomenal cast on this TV series! 👍

[@WardDorrity]

Laura Birn is stunningly, strikingly beautiful.

[@Rubyyrezaa]

The best duo

[@giancarlodr.iodice1701]

Great Actors, this show in AMAZING, Lee first apprearance in season 2 and his Arc, great

[@ModernAstroGuru]

Lee Pace’s husband is so lucky. That tall glass milk 🥛 is so freaking handsome and talented 🤤 he is the best Cleon and plays that character flawlessly!

[@Jyeoi]

Lee is gay? Wow

[@Nickname006]

​@@JyeoiStraight men never look that good.

[@tgwaste]

Laura birn is an exceptional actor. Want to see her in more things.

[@Daren_PNW]

If I had to pick any spoiler _EVER_ I'm a nerd for Dors Venabili from Prelude book forward. I'd love to know if we get mention of her from Hari's past.

[@Ceej474]

I’ve been loving this series and Wheel of Time , 2 great shows currently

[@barbarablue2571]

The parents of Legolas. 😅😅 looking for the mother while years in all the lee"s filmography

[@carolbriscoe9337]

Lee raised his level of acting this winning! He was superb. The second season took the series in an unexpected direction, which was very exciting

[@chrisstewart8954]

I love her

[@mothealien]

Love The show one of the best on right now. Apple+ is killing it. Lee is such an amazing actor, I fell in love with him during the show Halt and Catch Fire.

[@BigMikeMcBastard]

They've really stolen the show. I love the Empire/Demerzel storyline.

[@dreamer2260]

It's so good.

[@richardwafulaluis2791]

This series is absolute perfection

[@inkajantti356]

As Finnish person Laura is one of the best actors in Finland

[@6891x]

I just wish she would stop mumbling in every Finnish movie she is in. Other than that, I really like her and most of her movies.

[@andrewphilips2457]

Best show anywhere on anything.

[@ALBERTICO1967]

They are beyond amazing

[@runforrestrun1965]

Lovin this series at the mo, demerzels back story and development is compelling. I am wondering if being a robot she’s in touch mentally with the last robot R. Daneel Olivaw and getting orders from him, arranging and influencing events from afar before he finally dies. But maybe Demerzel is in fact Deneel in this show, hands on influencing events as we watch.

[@mikkojuhani7704]

I think Demerzel is Daneel

[@mosaicmind88]

It took me forever to figure it out but Lee Pace sounds like Matthew Macfadyen in Succession.

[@TheFiown]

Funny how the 'robot' comes across as more 'human' than the humans, she has real soul.

[@deejayjacobs2018]

Demerzel was great character in season 2 Laura did a fantastic job portraying her.

[@34582wt]

Great show

[@dailystories4513]

Damnn the voice still feels the empire

[@jperks6943]

Good shown

[@BriD2119]

I love it

[@davemiller6055]

Laura is really beautiful.

[@X139T]

I was so confused by the thumbnail hahaha ITS EMPIRE AND DEMERZEL?

[@Avex675]

Best VFX this science fiction series is the best ❤❤

[@GodslayerXUL]

The last klingon?! ^^

[@userk4175]

These two are likeable.

[@SoundBlackRecordings]

I hate his face after this season 😂

[@drhood25]

My emperor

[@ricardoortiz4870]

Ronan The Accuser

[@TELEVISIBLE]

The show is only watchable because of Lee pace 😅

[@Jamilajahankhushbu]

It took me 10 minutes to finish this video because I kept getting distracted by Daniel's eyelashes....

[@entertainyaro-uq2on]

She’s so into him 😊

[@acerock013]

wait...Lee Pace isn't English?! I had no idea he was American!

[@KeytarArgonian]

God can we please get Lee Pace some good work that isn’t a terrible adaptation?! Love the guy, but jeez give him some good material someone!

[@Kenneth_James]

Why don't they go on popular podcasts as guests? Like why are they doing The Tonight Show and stuff? Just seems so backwards.

[@freeman3467]

Wow she looks so much sexier than in the show!

[@roicephuspulsipher9246]

Yeah, poor things, they have no clue what is written in the original books, you can tell! :-)))

[@constantchange1145]

Laura doesnt have eyebrows, I feel like that makes her look more robotic, along with the Finish accent, straight, narrow features and pale skin. Great casting choice.

[@TheBlackAce2]

The first season was a much smarter and compelling one IMHO. Was their a reason everyone in the 2nd season has to lay out F-bombs every sentence? It really takes me out of the illusion/feel of an Asimov story.

[@j.a.velarde5901]

Uh... there is absolutely no content here. Way too short and no real conversation.

[@Lucretia9000]

I really thought he was English in GotG.

[@rg8438]

love the show. amazing cast and writing. plus I have a crush on laura birn

[@williamwhite3774]

We really struggled to remember as the recap was terrible at the start.
