It's actually pretty good if you leave your book baggage at the door.
yeah, like others have been saying. it's exciting, even though the actual plot is very different. to me, they kept its soul and even modernized the science.
I loved it, but a bunch of book readers seemed split. Seems like its based on the books but not the plot like it takes a whole different direction.
Honestly one of my favorite shows this year. Every character/actor was switched on the entire time.
Also I learned that Jarid Harris is not Charlie Brooker.
I learned this after confidently telling my wife that he's the guy that made black mirror after I saw him on the screen. She said 'really' and I said less confidently 'I'm not sure'
They did. It's on AppleTV or your local "sailing ship dock".
It's a pretty decent show and I enjoyed it, although if you're a purist about the original books It's not faithful to them in the slightest.
Yeah I started it and made it like 30 minutes in before I bailed because I loved the books. I'm sure it's an entertaining watch in its own right but it's hard to watch when you have expectations for the characters and story.
Scene 1. A giant space anomaly rips through the galaxy and creates a split timeline. We are now in the mirror universe.
Scene 2: Hari Seldon enters stage left.
See... all fixed for you
It’s pretty decent, however the story is completely different from the books aside from the basic motifs and character names.
They did! I’ve been really enjoying it. S2 finished a few weeks ago. It’s on Apple TV
Yeah, but it's on Apple TV, so...
YAARRR
The first season is great. The second is great in action but the story lacks logic. We have plottwists only for the viewer to confuse. There was no need to decept the empire about sth. They didn't knew in the first hand.
Foundation and Empire? Foundation's Edge‽
I, Robot, obviously 😏
Darn it, I am reading and upvoting your post because my reader is down in the middle of the third book and I can't go on! Are you doing it on purpose, PeriodicallyPedantic?
