re: The Foundation

Tolkien is my favorite author of all time and I was able to finish Rings of Power. This is further off source than Rings of Power was. I couldn't finish season one. Just don't feel like watching another show with one of my favorite authors source to be slammed by writers who don't care about telling a story true to the source. I told my wife about the first few episodes and she didn't even give it a shot and she couldn't give two shits about woke stuff, I don't think I've ever heard her say the word woke for that matter It's just her favorite series of all-time and she didn't want to watch a botched version of it.

That being said, I 100% can see why someone would like it. It is a quality sci-fi show, no doubt about it. If it was called The Crisis or something and didn't claim to be Foundation/Asimov, I'd still be watching it. Maybe petty on my part, but o well.
