Like all long form TV the story had to fit to suit audience demographics and specific characters that people related to, rendering the whole thing a bit diluted by the end

I got two questions. Is that one where they time travel any good? And are there any good Arthurian legend tv shows yet?

Don’t care, Wheel of Time is the only upcoming fantasy show worth giving a damn about now

No interest at all. Series was absolutely shite without the books in place, so it follows that this will be as bad or worse

Not sure we can know how significantly it diverges TBH. For S1 to 4 its divergence is almost minimal. Thereafter most book stuff is still in the show and the other stuff isn’t in a book so it’s hard to judge.

When they got it right it was so spot on IMO
