Foundation: Season 3 Reviews

A review of what’s been seen thus far can’t begin to describe the brilliance that is “Foundation.” It needs to be experienced. It truly is that good.

Full Review | Original Score: A | Jul 25, 2025

Foundation season 3 delivers on the promise of an epic-scale sci-fi story with the tone and pace of a blockbuster movie.

Full Review | Original Score: 9/10 | Jul 22, 2025

The series has always had some semblance of a “pick your own adventure” vibe, but this season seems to embrace it fully. It ensures that each pocket of its universe is compelling in its own right so that it can stand on its own.

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Jul 22, 2025

It feels like the kind of show that only ardent sci fi fans would enjoy, and we wish it was more accessible to those who just want to watch an entertaining drama.

Full Review | Jul 12, 2025

...an excellent production design, absolutely stunning visuals, and an unmatched ambition make 'Foundation,' once again in this third season, one of the best sci-fi series in history.[Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 5/5 | Jul 11, 2025

Ludicrous, lavish and larkingly largely than life, it is one of the most bonkers TV shows ever made and all the richer for that lack of inhibition. Foundation is science fiction with rocket jets cranked to the max...

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 11, 2025

The lore and scale of Foundation should make it mentally stimulating, but too many of its plotlines have become absurd and shallow... Foundation has the rhythms of intelligence without the substance.

Full Review | Jul 11, 2025

If Foundation were simply a string of cheats to maintain the central cast, then too much of what made Asimov's magnificent vision soar would crash land. Instead, the ensemble is the core around which a galaxy of guest stars turns.

'Foundation' returns with a brilliant third season, more complex and better narrated than the previous ones. [Full Review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: A+ | Jul 10, 2025

Continues to put the rest of its small-screen genre brethren to shame with its momentous, magnificent third season.

Full Review | Jul 10, 2025

If you’ve been on the ride thus far, there’s no reason to jump off now. But if you’re contemplating getting on for the first time, there are better options in the sci-fi universe.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 8, 2025

A stunning, sweeping and cerebral space odyssey.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 7, 2025

The stakes are high this season, but they’ve always been high. Foundation has no chill setting, which can be viewed as the show’s weakness and also its strength.

Full Review | Original Score: B+ | Jul 7, 2025

It’s wildly entertaining—thanks to its writing, layered world-building, and performances—and while it’s a show that deals with very serious themes, Foundation also knows when to lighten up.

Full Review | Jul 3, 2025

Foundation Season 3 is one of the best shows of the year and a must-watch show for all sci-fi fans.

Full Review | Original Score: 9/10 | Jul 2, 2025

After three seasons, it's fair to say that the Apple TV+ series from David S. Goyer and Josh Friedman has done the impossible in creating something that is not only engaging but holds to the soul of what Asimov's story is all about.

Full Review | Original Score: 8/10 | Jun 30, 2025

If there are any holdouts on whether or not Foundation is the true Game of Thrones in space, Season 3 will convince you that this epic show deserves an audience bigger than just people clutching their Isaac Asimov paperbacks to their chests.
