It's an adaptation of books I adored, on TV, with special effects. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 29/12/2021 10:23:22 PM

I don't have a really high bar for television. Lots of things enrapture me that are not good (THE FLASH, DOCTOR WHO, WHEEL OF TIME), and I dislike many that are excellent (THE SOPRANOS, BREAKING BAD). I'm able to recognize that some shows are fantastic and others are terrible, but they really don't correlate to what I enjoy watching.

My favorite shows are a combination of high art, solidly good TV, and absolute garbage.

Little bit of good, some meh, but way too much WTF? - 26/12/2021 03:51:48 AM 340 Views
How dare an important character be, uh... Middle Eastern looking. *NM* - 25/12/2021 04:05:25 AM 196 Views
Not Middle Eastern, but a regular guy you meet on the street - 25/12/2021 12:43:21 PM 393 Views
I think you should re-watch that section. - 25/12/2021 11:03:26 PM 403 Views

And that's another huge failing of the writing team..... - 27/12/2021 08:42:33 PM 369 Views
I love the show; it doesn't mean I think it's good. I love Doctor Who too. - 28/12/2021 05:04:55 AM 330 Views

Agreed - E8 was an epic disaster - 27/12/2021 08:49:42 PM 325 Views
Yeah, they covered ta'veren briefly in an early episode. I think Episode 1. *NM* - 28/12/2021 05:05:58 AM 196 Views
Didn't they just name drop it in the first 2 minutes then never really develop it again? *NM* - 28/12/2021 12:38:22 PM 200 Views
Yes, I think this was the case..... - 29/12/2021 03:33:57 AM 332 Views
