I also stopped around the same time.

The Foundation series might be my favorite of all time, but the show is crap. First of all it misses the entire point of the books. Psychohistory is explicitly NOT magic, and not limited to a few special people. And it's not a drama about the emperor.

It's a larger scale that means more than an interpersonal drama. If you can't do that on the screen (and maybe it can't be done), then the series shouldn't have been created.

Whatever this show is, it's not Foundation. All it takes from the books is character names and jargon. It has effectively none of the plot or intent or meaning of the books.
