It's hard to get a legitimate take on this show due to Apple fans. The consensus that I got was that it was not anything like the books, might be missing the point. But the veteran actors and Emperor plotlines are great while the new actors and Foundation plotline are weak.

I went through the book series again and was wondering if anything from the books does get adapted or is it pretty much the same as season 1?

Season two is a mixed bag. I’m not enjoying it as much as I did season one. Lee Pace is carrying the entire show on his performance. Dude should be able to walk into any part he wants based on his talent here.

This season introduced way too many new characters. I’m having a difficult time caring about any of them. Adding a bunch of magical mumbo jumbo disguised as science is also not helping.

Same with season one. The Empire story line is by far the most interesting in the show,
