Sounds more like fantasy genre to me. Also, shapeshifting is a lazy device in any kind of story. And I hate the word. Don't make me come off the porch and really scold everyone!

The first two seasons have been excellent. Anything well-done is good with me. If that is the case with the shapeshifting or if that is not a critical element of the narration, I'll be fine.

Think of the face dancers as human chameleons. They’re almost certainly using forbidden technology to speed things up, but the empire and Great Houses look the other way. They’re definitely afraid of the face dancers, but they’re a powerful guild and they need them. An important reminder about Dune, much as in our world, there is no magic. It’s humans spending endless hours training themselves to do extraordinary things while high as shit on spice.
December 23, 20241 yr The season finale was suspiciously good. Like they brought in another showrunner for the finale. The show has a lot of promise.

December 23, 20241 yr The finale left my house feeling kind of meh. I get that it was a cliffhanger, but I feel like it's the kind of cliffhanger that's going to appeal to fans but run others off. I'm getting a Westworld vibe.
December 23, 20241 yr Felt like the whole mind virus being based on fear is the origin for "fear is the mindkiller"
December 23, 20241 yr Spoiler I guess the virus thing works, but some kind of microwave transmission would be more plausible and more Duney/analog like the Harkonnen’s hiding a dude in the wall to kill Paul. I’d bet Tleilaxu are behind the virus. They’re probably only society advanced enough to pull it off. The Richese wouldn’t whack their heir and almost kill their current Duke. Are there enough Atriedes left to pull it off? Probably not. Edited December 23, 20241 yr by billfromlaketravis
December 24, 20241 yr Oooo that was a good one. would def watch that again them tie backs 🔥 Fear is the mind killer
December 24, 20241 yr Wanted to add….She’s far from a pretty face, but she got some acting chops. the young lady that has all the different ancestors

I found her acting (and to a lesser extent, her character) to be the low point of the show. I only watched it after Mrs. Doom had already fallen asleep while watching something else, but I found myself watching it im about 30ish minute increments just to stay sharp and avoid dozing off. Finished it last night and really enjoyed it overall though, and am looking forward to S2. Edited January 16Jan 16 by Prepuce of Doom
February 8Feb 8 Almost done with this show. Two more eps left. Kinda okay. But 6 eps means I'll finish it. Quick question for the Dune nerds- when did the guild navigator become a thing? I haven't read any of the books in ages but I thought they began to use navigator soaked in spice bc they couldn't rely on computers for space travel any more... do they exist in this show? My first thought when the Sister put the little black girl into the spice tub was she was gonna morph into a navigator..

February 11Feb 11 Just finished. Agree good finale, however I went into this hoping for a self contained Dune story based on the shitty prequels. Didn't expect to have such a cliffhanger Def saw them leading to the Litany when they said early on the virus feeds on fear. Def seems like a rogue leftover AI or Tleilaxu are the big bad behind Desmond. And why the hell would Valya leave all those bones down there lol. I'll keep watching.
