The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

Hoping for a game of thrones but I'll be very happy with a witcher or legend of the seeker.

Fun fact, the showrunner Rafe Judkins was a contestant on Survivor Guatemala, season 11. He went on to be a producer on Chuck and Agents of Shield among others.

The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

Long time book reader. I liked the series and will absolutely take it over not having one, but I do wish they'd done better. Overall, it was too rushed and they lingered overlong on the parts that were changed. They needed just a bit more time with the boys being jovial before poo poo went bad, Perrin and Mat especially. It deserved a 90 minute first episode and 1-2 more, or cut down on the funeral/warder stuff. Especially if you are just going to still Moiraine anyway.

My biggest annoyance was the women going out to meet the trolloc army. Why not just stand in front of the gates where the siege weapons and archers could support you and you have a place to fall back to if Nynaeve hadn't turned out to be able to supercharge the circle? I could almost see it if Moiraine had led them since she knows her stuff but it just seemed like bad writing.

Otherwise, lots of cool stuff. Bring on season two and here's hoping they don't get further derailed by problems outside their control.
