Well lets start with 4 stars, just for our ambition. Foundation looks subliem, is superbly acted and, unlike many new series, there is a storyline and characters to follow. It does deviate from source material that is no problem. Filming a source material should involve creativity instead of slavish adherence to the original text
We must applaud Apple for greenlight this series supporting the scope of imagination needed to realise this due the screen.
3 episodes in and it has me hooked, try to watch this with a fresh mind not closed by to much knowledge of the source and you will be very happy.
Hopefully at the end of this series I can add the 5th star.
