📺 The Wheel of Time (TV Series 2021– )

@Gaby I’m pretending I didn’t see this. Too many things on my list I haven’t watched yet. Is it good? Please tell me it’s not! Thanks

@Gaby One episode down, I like it. Rosamund Pike is a commanding presence on screen.

@Omrrc sorry to disappoint but so far so good! 🙃🥰

@Gaby I was expecting a bit more introduction on the first episode. It just kinda… started. Liking it so far tho.

@mcg @Gaby I like that they didn't go into a big introduction. I remember that from the books and it was dull as dish water.

@Gaby @issimonwoods @Omrrc @purisubzi @mcg I’m not sure if I want to watch this…I read the books as they came out, when I was young; I’d hate to ruin the memory. 🙄

@lostinhaste my wife, is really enjoying the series, but she had never read the books.

@lostinhaste I'm probably helped by the fact that I fell out with the books, though I also generally don't think that a TV adaptation should be a complete and accurate recreation of the source material.

@lostinhaste I think a lot of people work that way. My reactions tend to depend on the particular interpretation of the story, although with that viewpoint I have been influenced by exposure to fandoms.
