Not sure if it's in the books (still have 4 to go), but making Morgaise a Game-Of-Thrones-esk murderous bitch is a interesting change.

Min one of the main characters of good the entire time with no hint of anything but unquestioned loyalty to Rand?
If they did and anyone continues to watch this show they are literally retarded.

This. That friggin ending. I swear people just gave it a pass cause they were happy to finally get an ending of some kind.
But I'm with you. On this forum of all places, this show should be universally hated. Watching FoH posters admit to watching this and enjoying it is like listening to a bunch of Bishops and Cardinals talk about how "hey this Last Temptation of Christ is an interesting interpretation!"

Wtf they made Min a darkfriend??! It was bad enough they got an unattractive asian woman to play her - but this is a massive deviation from the books!!
I have absolutely no confidence they'll get the greatest part of the books right (the aiel past visions).

I just got done watching the first 3 seasons of The Wire for the 30th time and I think it was Dec/Jan when I watch Deadwood, so there is only so many times I can rewatch the good shows.
I don't see much difference in sitting through this than having to sit thru network TV shows like Chicago Fire, NCIS Fuckitstan, Friends, ER, or a bunch of other shit I have seen at one point in time or another...
It's fantasy when there is hardly any fantasy on TV that isn't Anime and since I've found looking for interesting Anime too much of a chore, I can tolerate watching this... eventually. Also, it can be a bit funny to see how bad some of the people on the show are at their jobs and then read the lamentations of the book readers.

Haven't watched the new episodes yet, but it's to be expected they're going to find reasons to peel away Rand's harem, in the book he ends up with three wives so I'm guessing that's gonna go down to only one in the show (and probably Aviendha, because they're not going to pick the blonde white Elayne duh).

The very first episode they wildly deviated from the books, in multiple ways.

What in the absolute fuck? I'm so glad I never watched this. Flaws and all this was a formative series for me and I spent the first half of my life waiting for the next installment. I have the first edition hardcovers signed in person by Jordan (and later Sanderson, to complete the set). Much like the Star Wars prequels and Matrix sequels, I assert that this doesn't exist.

I gave it a few episodes in season 1. When they killed off Agelmar Jagad that season like a bitch, I gave up.
Guess the whole great 4 captains angle didn't make the cut with these idiots.
Books 1 to 6 would have been awesome live. Condense all the other fillers novels, put in hotties and don't massively deviate - this live series would have been great.

Feel the same about House of the Dragon, absolutely butchering of the book 180 character changes and reversing every single character to make the IRL tranny the good guy is an absolute atrocity yet all the faggot posters defend it like it's not aids
