What Are the Critics Saying About Foundation?
Foundation has received a rating of 71% from critics and 58% from audience viewers. While generally enjoyed by critics, Foundation received middling reviews from audience viewers, citing fizzling plotlines and a poor adaptation of the series.
“While Foundation falls prey to peak TV’s recurring pacing problem, it still manages to not only adapt a seminal classic sci-fi series but update it for a modern audience in a way that still makes it feel relevant despite its source material’s age.” – Jessie Gender, Jessie Gender Youtube Channel
“Some people are likely to be turned off by the plodding pace and posturing/pontificating. Pah, I say! If you’re going to make a show that tries to get math to look sexy, you’re going to lose a few people along the way.” – Ryan Syrek, The Reader
