Having not watched Foundation, what was the issue there?
I loved Altered Carbon Season 1, but couldn't get into Season 2 and never finished it. I never read the book(s?), so the storyline was standalone for me.

In the TV series, everybody seems to have superpowers. A rather pacifist politician from the book is suddenly, in the series, a gunslinging person with mental superpowers.
I liked that the original was about more or less competent people making decisions, and seeing those decisions play out. I admit, I like competence porn. Almost everyone having superpowers feels like a betrayal of the values of the books.
Best part about the TV series are the three emperors. It's the one addition which really added something to the story... and which did not betray the values of the original book series, but was just a nice addition.
