The title comes from the article, but I agree with some of these changes. It's making for an engaging show that also feels modern.

I could not make it past the first season. It's all looks and no content. They drag out unnecessary bits, mess up the narrative of the original material to make it more "tv friendly".

I'd put it on the same shelf as Amazon's "The Expanse". If you like that, maybe foundation is also your cup of tea. Personally I'm not into either.

I love the Expanse, but I hate Foundation. Has nothing to do with the books. If they want to make something different, they should call it something different.

I liked The Expanse and still hate Foundarion.
