It's fun! It's not good, but that's ok. Neither are the books, and I enjoyed them too. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 28/08/2023 11:25:36 PM

It's not a good adaptation, but I don't need it to be a good adaptation. It's entertaining to watch and has neat special effects--and I quite like Pike as Moiraine.

Lightheartedness aside, I watch all sorts of trashy TV, and this is no different. It's gonna mess all sorts of stuff up, but I don't hold WoT so close to my heart that that really bothers me. And I don't have high standards for TV adaptations.

I'd honestly rather vote for Joe Biden. *NM* TyrReborn - 27/08/2023 09:50:06 PM 283 Views
LOL! I am fascinated to see if S2 can be as bad or worse than S1. *NM* Anonymous2000 - 28/08/2023 06:56:30 PM 271 Views

There's a reason it's coming out on Labor Day weekend. Because its laborious to watch. The Shrike - 28/08/2023 06:26:23 PM 561 Views
I'm actually looking forward to it. *NM* Ghavrel - 28/08/2023 06:15:14 AM 281 Views
How... why... AgentApple - 28/08/2023 08:31:01 AM 592 Views

I think, though, The Shrike - 29/08/2023 11:15:35 AM 590 Views
That's reasonable. I don't really attach the fandom to the books, though. Ghavrel - 29/08/2023 08:06:41 PM 566 Views
Yes, agreed. Legolas - 29/08/2023 10:33:37 PM 599 Views
You have hit precisely on why I despise this show and want it to be cancelled. damookster - 29/08/2023 11:04:44 PM 605 Views
The Whitecloaks might be one of those cases where major changes were inevitable. Legolas - 29/08/2023 11:48:08 PM 597 Views
Well, I like the books AgentApple - 07/09/2023 07:58:28 AM 581 Views
Im planning on hate watching. The Shrike - 28/08/2023 06:25:09 PM 602 Views
Hate watching! That's totally a thing. Good call. *NM* Anonymous2000 - 28/08/2023 06:57:50 PM 258 Views
From the previews, the damane are gonna be bondage-themed to hell and back. Ghavrel - 28/08/2023 11:27:11 PM 566 Views
I'll probably watch at least the first episode... Legolas - 28/08/2023 09:23:58 PM 576 Views
Dude! aerocontrols - 28/08/2023 10:33:26 PM 573 Views
Haha, fair. But I know the second season's not suddenly going to be amazing. Legolas - 29/08/2023 10:11:50 PM 568 Views
I will hate watch, but only after they measure the metrics Tom - 31/08/2023 03:10:36 AM 573 Views
Yup! I’ve already watched them all. Twice. *NM* globug0822 - 12/09/2023 03:58:47 AM 297 Views
High five! I'm saving them for a rainy day. *NM* Ghavrel - 12/09/2023 10:31:31 AM 265 Views
Your quokka post is the only thing that has saved you. LiterateDog - 14/09/2023 07:58:19 AM 546 Views
I don't have the heart to watch, but I prefer books to shows generally RugbyPlayingAshaman - 20/09/2023 02:17:09 AM 639 Views
