    @Doctor-Phibes Yeah, I can’t either. I recall something about the spoilers being down.

    There were a few casting choices I didn’t care for, Lan and Tam primarily. While it felt odd at first for the Two Rivers to be populated by Indochinese , I was able to check my white privilege at the door and get past that. I don’t like where they have Perrin and Matrim at, though. I also didn’t feel the connection between these 3 Taveeren.

      I just finished the second episode. It was as meh as I remembered the first one… Of course, the books improved over time, maybe the show does, too?

        I think it takes itself way and I mean way too seriously.

            The first episode. The script and acting were so humorless it was actually funny.

                I think so? We have the spoiler text thing still.

                    I’m going for it…

                    Perrin… Married? WTF? And she dies in the first episode? There can be no possible way for them to bring that character to where he’s supposed to go from there. And no axe? Now in the second episode, Mat gives him a knife that was crafted by Perrin’s wife and a long and expository talk about balancing it’s use as a tool and as a weapon…

                    Matrim… In the books he grew from being one of my least favorite character’s to being my favorite. The whole thing about his protectiveness towards his sisters and the issues with the parents? No frigging way. Sorry, but I don’t see where and how they go anywhere with him.

                    And everyone is frigging unlikeable.

                      From what I've seen, the characters really aren't the same people they were in the books, and it was the characters that made the books worth reading. The actual plot is pretty silly.

                      I was only joking
