Foundations

I read Isaac Asimov’s Foundation series at some point in the past, but when I started watching the Foundations on Apple TV, it did not seem to follow the books as I remembered, so I started reading the books again before continuing to watch the series. I am a third of the way through book 3 of the original series and while the show does weave all the principles from the book, it certainly takes many liberties to make its point. Thus far the most disturbing part of the show that was never part of the book, is all the sex and romance. I guess when Isaac wrote his books so many years ago the moral of the country wouldn’t accept that.
