After what they did to Foundation, I haven't got the least bit of interest.

Yes. Here's hoping.

I watched Foundation to the end, no matter how bad it got.

Just can't stop watching the Live Action adaptations of the old favorites.

'Peripheral', also watched it all, no matter how bad. etc...

So, I'll watch this one too.

They must know they have built in audience that will accept anything.

Why can't there be more like 'Expanse'?

Foundation is different than the books but I appreciate a lot of the story they've been telling in the show. I'm looking forward to their Neuromancer treatment

I agree. The Foundation books wouldn’t make great TV. There’s way too much time skipping and very little character development in the books. I have some gripes but they’re spoilers so I won’t say what they are. But generally I like the show, and I really loved the books and have read them multiple times.
