The premise is wrong. It says

"Foundation chronicles ...the thousand year saga of The Foundation, a band of exiles who discover that the only way to save the Galactic Empire from destruction is to defy it."

Which isn't the story at all. The Galactic Empire was already doomed and was allowed to fall (by Hari Seldon and the foundationers at least). They attempt to save science in order to reduce the several thousand years of chaos to a mere couple hundred years to then set up another galactic empire.

If on the other hand, this is what the show runners are going with then they should just throw it in the bin.
