It did look that way; but I think one of Moiraine’s lines in the show was something about Lanfear being “granted immorality by the DO.” Maybe I’m remembering wrong?

She (or someone) did say something like that, but I don't see how they would know how it actually works. I don't think anyone in this age is aware of the True Power. 

 

The way it looked with the Saa in her eyes, I think we are meant to believe she's doing it herself. Although show only people don't know about the True Power either so....

 

Back on topic, I'm looking forward to the Moggy vs Nynaeve showdown and everything TAR

Actually, I was just looking this up and it’s not in the top 5 according to my googling (WoT is about 10 million an episode). RoP is by far more expensive (58 million an episode). Citadel reportedly cost about 50 million an episode. Stranger Things 30 million an episode. And most of the Marvel shows are about 25 million an episode.

Are these comparable figures?  I suspect these are inclusive of the payment to secure the licence (very big in the case of RoP) rather than just the costs of wages, set and costume design, writing, CGI etc.   The licence payment should be stripped out if the aim is to compare the production achievement against budget.

Im sure it’s including the cost of the Licensing/buying the rights to make it; so good point. But All that means is that the more episodes they make that number of “cost per episode” will come down (other than that I think it’s still worth considering)! Especially since, say in the case of RoP, they have lots of financial incentive to not cancel a show but keep making episodes if you paid, say 1 Billion dollars, in order to make any episodes at all. 
 

Anybody know what the licensing/rights to WoT cost? Doesn’t Sony currently hold the rights?

Since everybody else is ignoring it, I just want to say I appreciate you for making this joke.

It's funny how minds work, because I didn't even read my own typo & my mind automatically "corrected it"; and if you hadn't said this, I would have never noticed that I typed "immorality" instead of "immortality" & that someone made a joke of it! lol

That is funny!
