If there's one series that bounces between good and bad it's For All Mankind.
I have no idea why the show writers insist on spinning this conflict between Russian and the West when they have nothing to base it on, instead opting to base it on something that makes little to no sense. Going from a situation that was 100 percent stable to basically a code red all because of something petty when compared to what's at stake is insane, it's the writers poor attempts to try make the Soviet Union appear as antagonistic and it's a very poor attempt given what's transpiring in the show.
There's so many other ways of creating an antagonistic force than this...
This episode is the perfect example of why For All Mankind is an average series that had potential to be great.
