The Astronaut Wives Club

Although in the beginning the pilot the show admittedly struggles to introduce each character of the ensemble cast, it only needs a few episodes to truly establish each in their own right. Other than that, the show masterfully weaves in the drama of personal struggle to find identity, a life left behind, remaining faithful throughout the struggles of fame and what that fame can do to a marriage, and the Cold War fever sickening the United States at the time. All the while carrying the theme of support and hope for the future. I will personally be tuning in to every episode of this show to see how the wives are doing.

I am in love with this show. I started catching up on HULU and can't wait to watch it on TV now that I am caught up. Each family has their own stuff they are dealing with and it makes the show amazing. The wives and husbands are amazing and it is my favorite show. I highly recommend it! At first of course it starts off with questions that the viewer may have, I know I didn't understand some things but of course this show doesn't disappoint! It goes on and tells you the secrets and later on you see marriages building stronger together and supporting each others careers. It's also amazing to see how each wife has their ambition and how it is during this era and what wives were expected to do and how their husbands and society react to them making a name for themselves.

I really like this show really wish it continued because it about science history. I have been a fan of science history for almost 5 yrs now the October sky hidden figures and this show I really wished they could make a movie of all this besides documentary.

This show was a delightful surprise. I had seen the trailers and assumed it would be just another badly acted, slapped together period drama but I was extremely pleased to find that this show is well acted and refreshing. From the first episode I was hooked and I look forward to the airing of this show every week. The acting is fantastic, the costumes realistic and delightful, the plot is strong and can even be nail-biting at times. Odette Annable and Azure Parsons are a delightful addition to the show and Yvonne Strahovski is perhaps the best, most likable addition to the cast. I am very proud and eager to recommend this show to anyone and everyone.

Amazing show! What I like most about it is the historical background of it all. From Women's Rights to African American Civil Rights and to the assassination of JFK. Hearing about the stories behind the scenes of great contributors to society, astronauts, makes for a great TV show. A lot of my shows have been canceled on TV and really hope this one sticks. I love all the characters and the era it takes place. A lot was happening in the country in the 1960s and I love that we get to see it play out on TV again. There aren't too many shows nowadays that has captured this point in time and I think it's doing an amazing job! The scandal, the drama, the politics of it all is what makes this show worth watching. It's just not a show about women and their Plesantville lives.
