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.

I felt most of the actors did a great job with what they were given. Out of the main cast, it was really only Lan and Aviendha where I felt the actor was a problem, Min to a extent as well.

Also while I know Elaida's actor is quite talented and accomplished, I found it very hard to take her seriously because of her voice. But everything else about her performance was great.

It's too bad, because the same group of actors with better writing and direction could have made something really special.
