Nellers, I don't think that's how it was marketed, but it was how it turned out. The problem is the relatively short set-plays from the books make a coherent series difficult to put together. I don't think the series really held true to the 'fundamentals' of psychohistory, but maybe it can't.
I'm more tied to Foundation emotionally/historically I guess - it took quite a bit to stop comparing the series to the books, and I enjoyed it more once I did. Same probably goes for people and TWoT.

Never read foundation so no expectations, it seemed okay.

Agree completely about how it was marketed vs how it turned out. The series is ok, but only vaguely related to the book(s).
Is the WoT series doing just the first book? With 14 books in the series how many series have they got agreed to get the story told?

Nellers, season one seems to broadly relate to book one. There are a few inconsistencies, for example we don't seem to meet Elayne this series but we do see Min. From memory I think she appears in a later book. There are also a few flashbacks which may be from the prequel. All in all I think it has been very good, and I am planning a rewatch already. I saw an article today saying it has been Amazon's most successful series to date, so hopefully lots more to come.

Ep 7 cold opener was fantastic, thought it was the best shot episode too. Ep8 has the same director.

Hi, I'm catching up now have got as far as the arrival at the White Tower. I found that episode much easier to watch and feel like I'm getting to enjoy it more. We seem to still be in book 1 so I assume this series could go on for years!!  Have I got many more to watch of what has been filmed so far?

Oh good, a couple more to see yet then. This is the first time I've viewed anything except the usual tv channels so I'm getting used to the tech!!! Finding my way around a bit better now and much less shouting at the remote.

Just watched the last ep of season 1. Overall think it played pretty fast and loose with the actual storyline but other than that it has been okay watching.
