Foundation is the best sci-fi I’ve watched and I’ve seen a lot. The way they adapted it from Asimov’s books is so well done, just enough changes to modernise is and keep people who read the books guessing.

Season 2 is a bit weak but 3 was great and the scope for future seasons is huge.

I’m actually reading the books now, and it really feels more like the show was loosely inspired by the concept and not at all based on the source material.

That being said… I like both! Definitely recommend the show to any sci-fi fans. It was fun.

You’re entirely correct. I devoured the books years ago, and then almost immediately bounced off the show because of the changes. Thankfully I pushed through it, but the show is very much doing it’s own thing.

Seems like the show writers reeeeally liked the characters in the prequel novels which, you know, same.
