And then it went downhill. My point is that HBO doesn't ALWAYS mean quality. Want another example? Lovecraft Country, one of the worst shows I've ever watched with a great potential, and, again, it was on HBO.

To sum it up: For All Mankind would have probably been the same show that it is now even if it was on HBO, there's no way to prove that it would have been improved when HBO itself dropped the ball many times in the past.

I wasn't saying it was inherently a bad point, just that those were bad examples because Severance could easily go the way of Westworld.
