Interestingly it's the opposite for me. The book (read only the first) was not enjoyable and I thought it's poorly written, bad characters and plotlines. So hearing the Foundation in TV is not like the book makes me want to see it.

It was basically an entirely different (not very good) thing. I thought the genetic dynasty part of it was super awesome though, not a closely examined subject in the books and the guy who played empire day i thought was very good.
