This is going to fucking bomb as TV show. I already know it.

why? do you think normies won't go for it?
Good god this was the dullest fantasy series I ever read. I think I got to Book 6 or so before a bad batch of books ruined it for me (I think the last half was printed twice, or some shit. It was a long time ago.)
And I say iot was dull as someone who genuinely enjoys the first half of book 1 in the Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn series where we follow a kitchem scullion just generally having a normal life for 400 pages.
I just started reading this a couple of weeks ago. I'm about halfway through the first book. They're making a TV show based on it? Fucking hell.
All the gay shit like bathing and clothing talk, second amyrlin seat and cuckoldry subplots will be kept. Most everything else will be cut.
Rand will be a 5' tall arab, matt in love with Perrin and Elayne, Egwene and Faile kick Moridin in the balls so hard he flies into Shaitan, killing both.

Ever read anything by Eddings? He's the master of boredom, not to mention a formulaic "high fantasy"

Oh yeah fucking spent most of the books talking about polgara cooking shit.
Ever notice the amount of mormons that write fantasy? It is absurdly high.
Probably because the book of mormon is basically christian fan fiction

Can't say that I have, but then again I know very little about writers as people with a very few exceptions.

everytime they print a picture of the author on a books sleeve I have to actively try to erase it from my memory.
Why the fuck do I need a book ruined by the need to show what the author looks like.
You make all kinds of assumptions about them when you see their photo and it ruins it.

my $0.02 worth, I grew up on Eddings' books. Kept me sane enough not to kill myself. His hero's journey in the book were incredibly important developmentally. Not sure how I would go reading them 20 years later, but then that's what Joseph Campbell is for I guess.
It will never see the light of day. It's too politically incorrect to air. The amount of buttrage that would come out on twitter from the KNEEL OR BE KNELT scene alone would be hilarious.
