The title comes from the article, but I agree with some of these changes. It's making for an engaging show that also feels modern.

The show has nothing to do with Asimov's books. They are just using Asimov's name for marketing.

Yes. This video adaptation is disgusting.

I loved his books. I can imagine hollywood making a horrible adaptation with irrelevant B plots or w/e and romance. But what did they really change? I'd rather not waste my time trying to watch it.

Video adaptation has literally no relation to the books at all. It's just some random crap without any meaning.
