Weak, poorly acted and cheap looking claptrap, without any fidelity to a masterwork.

It's one thing the change events in an adaptation. It's another thing to change the characters, their backstory, and hence their motivation. Terrible start to a supposed faithful adaptation.

For a generic show, it was ok. The CGI was clunky and overpowering. The acting was ok, but nothing grabbed me. As a representation of the book, it was horrible.

As a representation of the book, it was horrible. They absolutely decimated the characters. Lan and Moiraine lost all their subtlety and intelligence. Everyone has to have a flawed backstory and broken homes that were actually crucial to the plot of the book. Mat is a pos that sleeps with women and steals their stuff, and his dad is even worse. Except His dad is a huge part of his training to prepare to beat Gx2, and both parents are trash and he has to protect his sisters from them, Perrin isn't just a good man that struggles with how to protect his friends, but kills his wife that he had some sort of tension with? And the adolescent sexual tension with adult themes between Rand and Egwene? And the dialogue... so bad. Expand

The writers must've had absolutely no enthusiasm or care for their work. Just trying to get a paycheck.

A terrible beginning to a terrible show. Its obvious from the get go, that this show has no respect for the source material.

I went into this expecting GOT quality wheel of time ..what I got is the most campy fantasy I've seen In 20 years. Xena is higher quality.

Completely butchered the worldbuilding and story of the books. Assassinated or butchered most of the characters. Schizophrenic pacing. Good Trolloc/Myrddraal designs ruined by lighting, atmosphere, and cinematography. Originally would haveCompletely butchered the worldbuilding and story of the books.

Originally would have been 3-4 with the benefit of the doubt of things paying off later. Expand

Bad pacing and incoherent story, most of the main cast has had their story changed.

Just a terrible adaption. Trying to hard to create something that isn’t the WoT. Like they didn’t read the books at all. Terrible CGI.
