An Apple TV+ the Foundation TV show is based on Isaac Asimov’s book trilogy of the same name. It stars Jared Harris, Lee Pace, Lou Llobell, Leah Harvey, Laura Birn, Cassian Bilton, Terrence Mann, and Alfred Enoch. When revolutionary Dr. Hari Seldon (Harris) predicts the impending fall of the Galactic Empire, he and a band of loyal followers venture to the far reaches of the galaxy. Their goal is to establish The Foundation in an attempt to rebuild and preserve the future of civilization.

*10/8/2021 update: Foundation has been renewed by Apple TV+ for a second season.
I am glad i have never read or seen the books because that let me enjoy this series so much. People that read books tend to madly bash movies or series based on it.
Cancel this show now and start again! Keep to the original Asimov story.
It’s awful! And totally guts the story. So far its a bunch of disjointed soap operas with no seeming connection to anything that Azimov was writing. Too bad, because there’s really good acting throughout. It’s the story that’s messed up. It’s fine to create something new, but call it something else then. but even if that were the case it just poorly plotted. It doesn’t seem to be going anywhere interesting anytime soon. Pure JUNK! and a waste of the millions it cost to make it.
The acting and film quality are just fine but there are too many major changes from the original books to ever be enjoyable for me.
I can not believe that Isaac Asimov would have ever allowed these crappy changes to have been made, filmed and aired in his name!
Started off strongly but storytelling quality went down quicker than a hooker on crack.
