It’s hard to get a legitimate take on this show due to Apple fans. The consensus that I got was that it was not anything like the books, might be missing the point. But the veteran actors and Emperor plotlines are great while the new actors and Foundation plotline are weak.
I went through the book series again and was wondering if anything from the books does get adapted or is it pretty much the same as season 1?
Seriously. They are a breath of fresh air in a show that, while good, is not great due in part to how self-serious it can be. Bel and his husband are not “fun” exactly, but they are recognizably human as well, which makes them good POV characters.
