So far the casting is great and it seems like all the actors have a solid grasp of the source material. Lan and Moiraine stand out in particular.

I'm only on the second episode so I can't say much more but from the dialogue and portrayal of the Two Rivers village to the climactic battle scene in the first episode I'm pretty sold so far.

    Another great thing about the show is that there’s an entire subreddit devoted to people writing essays about how woke politics are ruining the show because the cast isn’t all wh*te

        It’s r/whitecloaks, it’s a very small sub but it seems like an inorganic attempt to force a “wheel of time was ruined by sjws” gamergate-style narrative

          OH MY GOD Did they really name themselves after the obvious klan analogue whose relevance to the plot is based on how they constantly try to kill people who are actively trying to help them and who end up helping the bad guy more than hurting him

          Irony is dead and conservatives killed it.

            you stupid leftists make everything about race and politics, just because they're religious fascists who wear white robes and go around lynching the people they've designated as the "other" doesn't mean they're a KKK analogue
