A full trailer for For All Mankind Season 2 has been published. Looks as if the rest of the world is set to watch the Cold War playing out a quarter of a million miles away.
Given where season 1 left off this was probably always going to be the sort of storyline they gave us in season 2, but I hope that we'll look back on this in later seasons1 as the difficult transitional season that we had to get through to get to the real story.2

- Yes, this assumes that the show gets several more seasons but let's be optimistic here. In theory Apple have the money to fund this for as long as the story needs, but how long the producers get for this show on this streaming platform is another question entirely. ↩
- Interesting to see that the IMDB cast information for the episodes - which admittedly, is pretty thin once you get beyond season 2 episode 1 - doesn't list returning cast members like Joel Kinnaman or Jodi Balfour past that first episode. Nothing against the returning cast members, but wouldn't it be interesting to see the story transitioning to a different main cast by the end. Against that, some returning actors we see or hear from in the new season's trailer don't even appear listed against season 2 episode 1 so it may just be that the IMDB's list is, to put it mildly, a work in progress. ↩
