That's fine, there was a lot of great stuff there - as mentioned the casting was really good - it's the same with Altered Carbon and Battle Angel Alita. They managed to make something that was enjoyable, unless you're a particular type who read the source material and can see all the ways they made superfluous or actively inferior choices (though plenty of book readers were still able to enjoy them for what they were, the baarstards).
At least with AC and Alita it seemed to be the understandable error of cramming in cool material they liked from later books because they're afraid of only getting one season, rather than WoT's showrunner having a truly incoherent understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the books and their own ability to correct them.
I didn't even try to watch WoT because I heard it was super disappointing.
Idk I liked it. Wasn't the greatest piece of television ever but it was fine. That said I am a TV treat baby rube that doesn't read many books.
