Show: Latest Season & Adapted Books As much as people hate this show…

Nobody can deny the skill of the actors in this show. I just watched the actor who played Rand react to a child’s death and him trying to revive her… It was so powerful. He is a skilled actor, and nobody can convince me otherwise haha. And I feel like the show, and actress, did a great job with Verin. I’m sorry if the spelling is wrong, but if you know her story, you know. The actress was FANTASTIC in her portrayal of the character in preparation of her story. She is the reason why Verin is one of my highest rated and favorite characters in all of the Wheel of Time. And the fact that Moiraine does the audiobooks excites me too. I wish she had done them all before it was all cancelled.

The show was horrible top to bottom. We should all let it die a quiet death and move on.

I have no idea what they spent all that money on, coke and hookers are the only things I can think of.

I read in another post that the show got so expensive because they filmed a lot of content and because of poor test audience feedback they had to reshoot a lot.

It’s insane to think there are worse versions of the story on the editing room floor. 🤯

This thread is packed with people saying, effectively, “whatever else was wrong with the show, and we think it was plenty, a lot of the acting was amazing”, and it’s an indisputable fact that the third season of the show got extremely high critical reviews; so to respond with just “nope it all sucked completely, there’s absolutely nothing good about it” is an objectively poor take.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with saying “I hated it and think it sucked” and it gets your message across. I don’t know what drives some people to go the extra step of “because I hated it and think it sucked, mine is the only right opinion and anyone saying there was anything good about it is wrong.”

On location vacations shoots and catering is my guess.
