I don't mean stuff that was obviously bad on sight (to you) and so you didn't bother with, or even necessarily content you just checked out of before the first episode was done. But a series that you ultimately felt wasted your time and abandoned due to its total lack of quality.

You didn't even like the Empire Plot? How far did you get?

No. I was out the second a robot murdered someone.

I, Robot was a better adaptation of Asimov.

Are there any good adaptations of Asimov besides Fantastic Voyage and Bicentennial Man?

Besides the seminal I, Robot? Not that I know of. Does Data's positronic brain count?

The show is only good for the Empire plot. I mean.. rebellion poison-cloning Dawn and getting close to him to get him on their side, and then Day figuring it out, and ruthlessly squashing all of it! Totally new, and very well crafted, with great character. I suspect Day actor chop is holding the show on his shoulder. In last season, when they dude-fied him, I was thinking it was over.. and then he make it work somehow.

The foundation side is indeed very bad character, and serviceable plot.
