Foundation being an example and where the storyline did not even come close to matching the novels.

Yeah, that's why I'm not looking forward to Amazon's latest efforts with TLOTR. sigh.
I liked Eureka, but with Warehouse 13, I thought the two agents were difficult to like. He was a dimwit, mostly--your basic musclehead--and her? Yikes, to this day if I see her in something, I pass it by. Just couldn't warm up to her at all. The people in the office--what was his name? As with many shows, the supporting cast was better than the "stars."

I'm currently watching Twin Peaks and looking forward to Season 3 installment released a few years ago.

Oh...I really hope you liked it better than I did. I think I made it to episode 3 of Season 3 and finally gave up. It seemed to me that Lynch was being deliberately obfuscatory for the sake of being weird. The whole storyline--well. I won't get into it b/c it would spoil it for you. It was a shame, I really liked the first two years originally and I was avidly looking forward to S3.
I'm considering a Mission:Impossible show run from the 60's. ;-)
