Just putting this here for those who might miss it.
I saw season 1 and it was…okay? I gather that Wheel of Time diehards were upset about plot deviations. I never read the books so that didn’t matter much to me. IMO the world setting seemed janky - it was as though Robert Jordan couldn’t build an original world to save his life and borrowed bits and pieces of different Earth cultures and threw them in a blender. I could pass on the next season but I have too many people around me who will want to watch it so I feel somewhat compelled to.
What did you think of season 1? Will you be watching season 2?
I enjoyed season 1 outside of a handful of sequences that felt forced or meh. Looking forward to season 2
My biggest gripe about season 1 was how sparkling clean their clothes looked.
Rand’s woolly jumper was shining, no balling, freshly woven, from perfectly spun threads - they’re all supposed to be
mediaevalfarmers in a remote village who’s only contact with the cities was an occasional travelling merchant, everything should have been old, had a layer of grime, clumps etc.Other than that I thought it was pretty good.
