    Yeah who cares about the original works! Everything is good as long as huge studios can piggy back off the name recognition from classic novels and make a bunch of money with their completely different story.

      The original works still exist.

      You can care about the originals and like the derivative works.

      Recognizing that Foundation the TV show is a decent show does not take away from the books.

      Saying that it’s a bad show because it didn’t stick to the source material is ONLY a you problem.

        That wasn’t my only criticism of the show, and I’m certainly not alone in my opinion of it. It’s cool that you enjoyed it. They certainly put a lot of time and money into creating it. I didn’t enjoy it for the reasons I’ve already given.
