I'm a huge Asimov fan (read the Foundation series multiple times) and I couldn't make it through three episodes of the horrible Apple series. And no, it wasn't because of the changes they made, the basics didn't work either. The adapted story wasn't comppeling, the characters/actors weren't well chosen for their roles, the script wasn't good, basically, every part of it was subpar. It's like it was written and directed by someone who wasn't an Asimov fan and who never read the books.

It reminded me of Amazon's horrible Tolkien series (Rings of Power), that is, exceptional special effects, but everything else sucked.
