Strongest Match

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds keeps the long-arc sci-fi braininess of Foundation, but delivers it through crew tension and mission pressure in self-contained episodes. You get ideological friction in a distant-future setting, with character-driven conflicts and mystery threads that pay off quickly, then reset for the next case.

Star City

Apple TV • May 29 • 2026

DramaScience Fiction

Soviet cosmonauts, engineers, and intelligence officers risk everything in an ambitious space program aiming to be the first to reach the moon.

Why This Pick

Star City scratches the same itch for empire-scale systems grinding down people, with surveillance, ambition, and survival replacing Foundation’s galactic politics. The story leans into institutional secrecy and procedural detail, where paranoia and technical problem-solving keep the dread steady, then turns colder and more grounded than the grand saga feel.

Little Disasters

Paramount+ • Dec 11 • 2025

Drama

A group of new mother friends are torn apart when one is accused of injuring her baby, fracturing their bond and nearly destroying their families.

View show

Why This Pick

Little Disasters shares Foundation’s taste for slow-burn mystery where institutions and ideology shape what people dare to say out loud. The domestic setting turns that pressure intimate, with fractured trust and moral uncertainty spreading through close relationships, making the unraveling feel colder and more personal than the wider galaxy scope.
