If you love science fiction, these are all great series to watch or read.  Some of these I've read, some I've watched, and some I've done both.

Dune

I read the first few books in the series as a teenager, but they get REALLY weird the further you get into the series and I eventually NOPED out on the rest of the books.  I am interested in the prequels now though since I watched the MAX series.

I have enjoyed Kevin J. Anderson's books previously.  This book series is the basis for the DUNE: PROPHECY series on MAX.

I loved this movie!  Very good interpretation of the book without getting bogged down in the minutia.

The Expanse

I've enjoyed the series on Amazon through all seasons and was sad it ended.  Great acting and a good story.

Bladerunner

Philip K. Dick is a favorite for Hollywood adaptations.  Bladerunner is just one of many movies that were based on his short stories or novels.

This is the book that inspired the classic film Bladerunner and its sequel.

One of the all time best sci fi films ever made.  And it stars a young Harrison Ford so you know you can't go wrong!
Blade Runner: The Final Cut

Minority Report

This is another book by Philip K Dick.  There are many adaptations of his novels into movies and tv series.

Cool concept, but I'm not a fan of Tom Cruise so I haven't watched his movie.  The special effects look great from what I've seen.

You had me at Matt Damon, but it's also just a general all around great movie.

Foundation

I read these books as a teenager in my Asimov phase.  These were good stories.  I don't have Apple TV right now, but I'll probably get a subscription for at least a little while to see this series.

This is the first book in the classic Asimov series now a series on Apple TV.
