For me, I knew the series was a waste of time when they didn't start with "There are neither beginnings or endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning."

I watched the first season and liked it, so I read all of the books and almost immediately hated the show. I watched season 2. It was... ok. I guess. They changed too many things, and not for the better, and I will not be watching season 3.

I did not really love the show but I do have to tip my hat to Rosemund Pike. She really leaned into the series and gave her all. She clearly took it serious.

I wasn't a huge fan of the way they bastardized the source material. I grew up reading that series and despite its flaws, it holds a special place for me. I had been hoping for a good adaptation of it, whether it be TV, movie series, or video game(s). I didn't have super high hopes for the show, but I was really hoping they would be more faithful to the source.

It wasn't all bad. They did manage to hit most of the major plot points. I will say that I was supremely disappointed with the scene where Rand encounters Turak in S2. That's always been one of my favorite parts of the early books, and they just tossed it in the trash.

Anyway, this comment has gone on far longer than I planned. So while I'm a bit sad that the series is canceled, at least RJ can stop spinning in his grave over what they did to his baby.
