From what I've heard, it literally flips the premise of the novels.
I like both. The novels are good, but would not work today - they have been writen in the 50s and it Shows.
The series might have slow points, but I really like the emperors and the genetic dynasty, great storytelling device.
I don't think the novels would've worked regardless of time. The whole point of Foundation as a series was that there's no real protagonist in the series; the society as an aggregate works in a certain way as dictated by the rules of psychohistory. The concept wouldn't have translated into a good TV show.
The show that we got is more of a generic space action, which has some interesting parts, but meh for most of it.
I think it's just easier to write the hero's journey instead of systems. GoT was good at the latter.

TIL making fun of writers for talking about women as sexual objects is 'sex bad.'
