    Reviews have been mixed for this Apple TV series, but I'm enjoying it. It's stunning to look at and brilliantly acted. There's been grumbling from some hard-core Asimov fans about all the changes, but the outlines are basically the same as Asimov's original stories. One reviewer said the producers were imitating Star Wars and he bitched about the action. Whatever.
    Apple is determined to spend big money to build it's library of high quality content and by the time all the promotions run out for people like me who are getting it free for buying their products (and getting dragged deeper into the Apple ecosystem).

    Im liking it. It would be interesting to see what someone who has never read the books would think. It is rather complicated
