Thank you FANdation, We are back with another recap of our favorite “I’m not Crying” show Foundation Season 2 Episode 10. I’m your host, Anthony, and I will do my best to be your guide in this far-out show as we’re actually picking up where Episode 9 ended.
This episode is titled “Creation Myths” which is a very intriguing title as it relates to the work of Isaac Asimov. In Asimov’s novels, the concept of creation myths could be linked to the formation of the Galactic Empire and its earthly origins, which in itself is a monumental event that serves as something of a backdrop in the series. The rise of the Foundation, which itself is an organization dedicated to preserving knowledge in a time of impending galactic collapse, can be seen as a kind of modern-day creation myth. It chronicles the emergence of a new order, akin to the birth of a civilization, and the myths, legends, and ideologies that surround this transition especially when you take into consideration the religion of the great Hari Seldon. Additionally, Asimov often delves into the idea of predicting the future through mathematical models, akin to the creation myths of ancient cultures that sought to explain the world’s origins and purpose.
In “Foundation,” the theme of creation myths may be a lens through which the show explores how beliefs, legends, and historical narratives shape the course of history in a futuristic setting. This episode has the potential to delve deep into the philosophical and sociological aspects of Asimov’s work, examining how myths and stories can be as influential as any scientific discovery or technological advancement.
Overall, it’s a very intriguing title for an extremely satisfying end to an incredible season and I can’t wait to start talking to you all about the finale.
Synopsis:
More than a century after the season one finale, tension mounts throughout the galaxy in “Foundation” season two. As the Cleons unravel, a vengeful queen plots to destroy Empire from within. Hari, Gaal, and Salvor discover a colony of Mentalics with psionic abilities that threaten to alter psychohistory itself. The Foundation has entered its religious phase, promulgating the Church of Seldon throughout the Outer Reach and inciting the Second Crisis: war with Empire. The monumental adaptation of “Foundation” chronicles the stories of four crucial individuals transcending space and time as they overcome deadly crises, shifting loyalties and complicated relationships that will ultimately determine the fate of humanity.

LMAO "for shits and giggles" I have not heard that for a long time.
The casting is beautiful. Demerzel, Callie, Salvor, She bends light, my favorite women on the show
You took bell & hobber out of the show. Man give them a spin off in a parallel dimension where they desperately dinghy against the odds to rejoin their loved ones…
Thank you David for doing this. Most showrunners would never, ever do this. Thank you David. <3 <3 <3
Great reaction and interview. I absolutely love foundation.
👍🏼
Foundation and From? I’ll subscribe for the man recognizing the two best 1hr shows out today.
Anthony, thank you for this excellent recap of Foundation S2 E10. As always you really put in the work! Even David Goyer recognizes the sincerity of your passion. I know that this is a BIG ask but can you please, Please, PLEASE find a way to interview Roxanne Dawson? After watching how much David Goyer shared with you it would be just as interesting to see you speaking with her. That would be absolutely wonderfull!!!
Isn;t Demrezel free from the constraints since she can kill Cleons now? I don;t really get it ,I thought Hari(black) freed her of her allegiance.
Okay tell me this. Why can't they have got off the ship with the atmospheric flight suits?
Brother i am now a subscriber. Great interview
Thanks
Thanks!
My prediction is Demrezel has become a true disciple of Hari Black because he actually removed all constraints or directives.
Hari Black > Hari White , HB is flying through space in piramids while HW was almost killed by that woman with mind games which would not have worked with HB.
Anyone else notice when Constant mentioned Sayshell 🥸
I don’t understand why the guards, on Trantor, were obedient to Demerezel and not Dawn. Did they know that the Cleons were just puppets all along? Were the Cleons the only ones who didn’t know?
Hari set this all up so he could be with Gale. The Mule is their love-child.
I’m so glad I found your channel! You have the best Foundation reviews. What a fantastic interview with David Goyer. Well done! Really appreciate what you do!! 👏👏❤️❤️
A Fantastic and natural reaction and interview. Nice 1 TMB (well done Anthony!!)
The Cleons overclocked Demerzel CPU. It was Demerzel worst Day that kept on giving. 😂😂😂
Thanks for the breakdown. (Geal's voice is New Zealand, not British.)
❤
With constant being poly's grandfather I wouldn't put is past to live past a hundred
Outstanding deep dive and reaction show! Your interview with David S. Goyer was really rich and thoughtful, too – loved every minute of it. Thank you for your brilliance, creativity, and genuine appreciation for Foundation. 🏆
Thanks for the interview with Goyer. But I thought he was a little dismissive of Lee's career. As if this series was supposed to give his career a boost. However, everyone knows Thranduil. Except for Goyer himself, as I understand now. Foundation has a small creative fan base – it's hard to even find any fan creativity. In addition, series pass and are forgotten, while such classics as The Lord of the Ring and The Hobbit remain for decades, translated into many languages, copied onto media and included in collections.
Without Empire Day, Lee Pace there is no Foundation. When he died i was like no…
Demerzel and Day are the best in the show. I don't hate the clones, blame Cleon the 1st. The clones does what an Empire or an emperor should do. Crushing rebellion.
There we have it again. Diversity. Bye newt video.
I think the green mark on Demerzel was suppose to signify the " traitorous skinless robot/driod" on the mural, which turns out to be HER, Demerzel, who led the robot wars; which side? Idk.
👍👍
Your questions for goyer were great! I loved that interview.
Till the next season I suggest you listen to the foundation series on YouTube and the robot series as well I guarantee you will love it by the way I love your analysis of the foundation show thank you sincerely J. ASH.
This show is as goog as games od thrones for me.
I really enjoy your posts!!!!
You make such a great point – Rue and Dusk may still be alive, but imprisoned.
You kept mixing up Glaywen and Bel when describing Day's a$$ whopping 🤣 But a great reaction, nevertheless!
horrible over fake twist end…for sake of subverting expectations…almost on par with game of throne lvl of clout bring back all the dead pl clout…excellent s02 with horrible 10th episode finale. breaks my heart as i try to recommend this show to peers. absolute forced bad writting ending. no one died yay! the dead live again wohoo
