I'll never get over that first episode when I realised they gave Perrin a made up wife just to have him kill her by accident, WTF????
The rest of the season was just like that over and over again. The only part of the story they preserved were the character's names ðŸ«
I'm going to be honest. I didn't make it past the intro. When they refer to the false dragons as whoever "he or she" is... I'm sorry. Jordan was already a firm feminist, wrote kick ass female characters... I'm not participating in the gender neutering of the story.
The entire premise of Jordan's system of magic was that men were affected by the taint, which made their use of magic dangerous. How the hell is it supposed to work sans that?
I have a rule now to not watch shows or movies based on literary works I love.
