I urge you to try and re-read the Foundation series as an Asimov fan. The books are... barely passable. With the exception of the first one.

People claiming that series is bad haven't read the books in a long times.

There are no characters. There are talking heads that speak at each other. Women are non-existent. Every single person is a knight without fear or reproach. Huge galaxy-spanning powers come and go in lieu of interesting ideas (first the Mule and the R. Daneel).

The TV series (at least season 1, haven't seen season 2) is the best that could happen to the books IMO.
