Oh. My. God.
#Foundation S2E9
This is one for the history books. I have a short list of best TV show episodes I've seen of all time.
This is now on that list.
I never read Asimov's Foundation series. I understand this show has drifted fairly far from the source material on a lot of plot points, and I can understand some people being unnerved by that.
But is this show great TV? I think it is. I think the showrunners and the artists know what they're doing…at least for audience members like myself.
@jaredwhite I do approve of a lot of the changes, particularly around modernization of the tech compared to the books, and the clever ways they keep the same characters so that you don’t constantly swap out everyone for new ones over the span of centuries.
@Frantasaur Yeah, I guess they would've had to do more of an anthology-type show if they had kept to the original time jumps and character shifs
