On second viewing I didn't hate it as much AgentApple Send a noteboard - 19/12/2021 10:18:00 AM

But I am starting to hate the show as a whole for being a missed opportunity.

Instead of focusing on the "Dragon" mystery, they should have played up the Rand's clues for being the DR, and also Moiraine's evasive answers for her interest in him. Give the viewers a sense of doom, as Rand is led like a lamb to the slaughter by this relentless woman.
Make him a Leto Atreidis until he reaches the Eye of the World.

The stupid "Dragon" mystery is annoying because they keep throwing the word Dragon around without the negative damnation that should be associated with it. Sure, they showed Logain as an example of a damned false Dragon but I feel they keep undermining this concept by the casualness they talk about possible Dragons.

Maybe it is a result of adding women as possible Dragons. Emoting "The Dragon Reborn is damned to break the world, go insane if a man, but just be an awesome Aes Sedai if a woman" could be too complicated for actors and audience.

Very good episode! But I assume no Forsaken in E8? Anonymous2000 - 19/12/2021 04:07:09 AM 244 Views
Since on the show, they are evil gods who might not even exist, probably not. *NM* Cannoli - 20/12/2021 05:44:48 PM 164 Views

This is the problem with assuming TV writers can improve the source material. damookster - 19/12/2021 03:52:17 PM 210 Views
Now with the Rand-Tam flashback, it rather undermines the whole silly Dragon secret thing. Legolas - 19/12/2021 04:36:15 PM 243 Views
