The Three Body Problem is a television blockbuster directed by David Benioff and DB Weiss. The problem of the three bodies does not negate the work of Liu Cixin.

This series is based on one of the trickiest resources in science fiction: superscience. Proposing to the viewer extremely advanced (and proudly incoherent) science to justify anything is a scam. Well executed, that plan can work: the plot advances magically. This is not the case with The Three-Body Problem, which gets bogged down in explanations that convince no one.
