One could say that's nothing, they continued even Jack Ryan etc. after their abysmal ratings, but it's very good to see that the viewership, which was minimal even after a huge marketing campaign (second season has undetectable marketing, Amazon knows it's a lost cause), is getting lower uninterruptedly with every episode.
Don't worry Mr Jordan, people care about your books, but they do not care about the 'adaptation'.
And no wonder that the showrunner gives very weird interviews in these days, where he blames everybody and anything except himself and his colleagues...
Oh really? I didn’t hear that he was playing the blame game. If this was 15 years ago and with the right showrunner who knew what to keep and to take out this show could’ve been a massive hit. With Game of Thrones I’m so glad that it started when it did or else it would be just another “diverse fantasy”. Granted by the end it was heavily influenced by girl power.
'it would be just another “diverse fantasy”'
I was banned from every WOT forum (and many televison forums) for 'hate speech' when I presented a list about the skin colours of the characters based on almost a hundred quotes from the books plus posting Robert Jordan's list about Audrey Hepburn as Egwene etc.
But one of the 'actresses' can say 'when I went to the audition, I saw white people everywhere'. But she's not racist, not at all. I'm the racist quoting Robert Jordan's own words and thoughts.
I stopped going to the subreddit once the show cast was announced and I saw praise for it. I don’t get it because they do meet people of different races/cultures on their journey.
I hope the crappy show makes some people but the books at least
"once the show cast was announced"
That announcement killed my interest in the show forever. They don't care about even being faithful to such a basic thing as skin colour then I don't care about the show, because they will change everything.
