Like Westworld, but like Westworld, lots of opportunity to go off the rails. Let's hope for the best.

Gaal is a black teenage girl now? Couldn't they have at least got that part right? I'm passing on this. I love the novels but this is pure liberal BS.

Liberal? You're nuts.

I'm gonna give it a chance. Fingers crossed that we get a good series.

I'll watch it whenever I can stream it. I could never get into the book farther than a few chapters. Did not have that problem with most of Asimov's other SF which was pretty good, especially the R. Daneel Olivaw Robot Detective novels. Those would make cool movies.

I've not read the book or tried. But I'm not that much of a purist - a tv series attempts to do things that a book can't, so I don't need this series to do exactly what the book achieved. Besides, if the book is better, I'm sure I'll be disappointed. But at least I can go back and read it later. As for Asimov's books, I haven't read any in a decade at least.

reply

All of my Asimov reading was in the last century.

reply

I'd say that's a reasonable statement.
