This stinks so bad of plagiarisms' I can't believe the Asimov family isn't taking legal action. The nonsense it only follows in broad strokes but has different characters is a large steaming pile of.... So, if what they say is true why use his book series title, history, and the key components of the series? Does anyone else see them milking the success of the book series to get people to watch because of the existing audience for Foundation title? How many times must we endure someone taking a title of a movie, book, or tv series and totally remaking it into a different story (i.e., Little Mermaid, The Wild, Wild West, Equalizer) to suit a different audience? How is it they can manage to totally ruin the original story and then claim the same title to get an audience that is familiar with the originals.

It was an excellent series right up until it became more about his gay relationship and his spouse adopting a baby. I don't watch any series about Sci Fi, Mystery, Comedy, or Drama for the key characters love making, romance, marriage, children, dysfunction, or anything that takes it away from what the series was sold on in the first place. They seem to have forgot it was supposed to be about a brilliant Ex-CIA agent solving mysteries. I'm ticked off that some wanted to make it gay so badly, they got it cancelled because they ignored the whole reason people watched it in the first place.

Anyone watching the new series Whiskey Cavalier? Great writing, casting, directing, acting, camera work, sets, locations, and music. It's a nice mix of spy thriller with some comedy. A couple episodes back they tipped a hat to True Lies by having one of the team in a van complaining about being in the van, like Tom Arnold did, and the leads were dressed to the nines and dancing to the same tango song Schwarzenegger and Curtis did in True Lies. The most recent episode they are all travelling in Europe in an RV and the music playing is Holiday Road from National Lampoon's Vacation. Still funny if you don't catch the references, but even better if you do.
