I'll bite and pay $4.99/month just for that series. Hopefully they make a good adaptation of the books.

same here. when it comes out I'll subscribe, binge watch that and a couple other shows, then cancel before the month is over. Asimov introduced me to sci fi when I was a kid, like he did to so many others, and I used to devour his books so it's a no brainer to at least see if they do a good job translating it to tv.

The most memorable part was Slavor Hardin wrecking the politicians speak of that one planet via logic. (implied of course to make it understood by the masses). That's the most salient part of the books that I remember. Everything was a slog, with an excellent point on the power of statistics.

(and funny enough, Hardin shares a birthday with me).
