I have read a lot of fiction over the years.... It doesn't really matter about gender roles unless you start changing an established work and then rewrite it to suit. Fresh work can write what they want and let the audience decide if it is a success.. But hijacking established work for agenda purposes, well....That is something I must look down upon...Especially when its intentionally done to challenge or antagonise! I mean by all means challenge and antagonise and push your agenda, but do it under your own IP for pity sake, by jumping on anothers work it just shows that you have no faith in your own. It just creates rifts, conflict and ends entire franchisee.

Has Amazon remade any tv shows that it cancelled within the last decade? Truth is that unless someone can match what Amazon paid, Amazon is happy just to have the IP on paper as a stockholding. Given Amazon paid top dollar...Its going to be a few decades.

So you are chuffed to bits that it got cancelled part way?

All of it? No! A fair bit though...Can you honestly say he's sans responsibility? I suspect the largest influence was due to boardroom meetings where constraints/checklists were made because they thought pandering to the latest trends would boost numbers, thus boost profits! Unfortunately though, the groups they pandered to were not numerous enough and the pandering also drove others away. This is more the fault of Amazon executives, though Rafe played his role also. No fan of WoT came out happy from this, things were wrong. I don't see how that can really be argued with. It is what it is.

"Where little existed". Not exactly the same extent as Book vs TV, lets be honest.

Disharmony and division.

Was going to say if they had been argued before the shows release then everyone might have been appeased. But then little was achieved 2nd/3rd season in appeasing both sides. The show created disharmony and division where little existed previously.

As I said, it is what it is, good/bad wasn't part of what I said. But I would say if you haven't viewed both then its rather more tricky to gauge which is more preferable/the better version.

You would think so but...Well so many of the TV fans either didn't like the books anywhere near as much or had not even read them. Just stating facts, it is what it is before anyone has a go.

Why would people hate the show? I really didn't like it to the point I had resentment, but even then I wouldn't waste the energy to hate it, doing that is exhausting! I just voiced I didn't like it and then just didn't watch it...Clearly enough people felt similar to me and not enough felt fans of the show and it got cancelled, same as any other show that could not get the figures required to return a profit. Shame it got cancelled, but no skin off my nose...Does give me vindication of some sort though. What we should ALL HAVE AGREED on from the start is that the show should have been better....But we weren't and we were divided.

I would only say the predictable reasons that aren't popular(to the powers that be) to say. I suspect they knew even before they were told, they could only have felt their days were numbered....I mean getting renewed before the consumer gets to even see the product, when most other shows have to earn another series must seem rather suspicious, especially when you know the show just isn't that good. I feel sorry for the cast.

Perhaps, best not speak about how things are "M" word either though, its another taboo subject best not spoken about, just creates grief, even this may be too much. Think its even against terms and conditions of using the site.

Don't like doing this, it just stirs trouble up that I don't want, so I will redact a few bits and bobs... Posted November 15, 2021 ------ Ahahahhahahahha! No. Thread is Locked. "W" Discussion is done, you've all had an opportunity to vent it out, and we lost a member because of it. Starting Today, any posts that start talking about "W" will be removed/edited. Don't like it, take it up with the other admins.". ......... There are a fair few more examples, I mean many people weren't happy with how the show was going, people were going to be critical...Things like that happen, they WERE NOT well received. Personally I just thought the show wasn't very good.

this is a really bad thing to say. this forum doesn't ban people on opinions Didn't say they did, would have said that specifically if I intended such, sorry but I am just not interested in hurling combative accusations at each other over comparatively insignificant things. I would rather just go.

That is because those that were had been chased off....
