It was a little similar in For All Mankind, where the USSR doesn't collapse (because they got the moon landing first - it's a space show so whatever, sure) and the "space race" continues to spur impressive feats.
But it very, very, quickly libs out and stops imagining this leading to a better future, just better technology - and almost all of the American cast are fucking awful liabilities.
I gave up on that after the 4th episode. Friends recommended it because I would like it. I’m assuming because the USSR still exists in the show but the POV of the show is just Americans the entire time
Doesn't FAM actually put in some effort to divert the USSR's fate (w/r/t Andropov actually doing everything right before handing it to Gorby)? Or was I just reading someone's headcanon?
