For most things if I’m gonna be waiting more than a few weeks, I’ll let myself kind of forget about it and then enjoy it whenever it happens.

That said, I didn’t do that for The Wheel of Time TV show. I learned about it relatively late; a few months before release, and then spent a lot of time reading up on it, looking into the cast, watching trailers, interacting with WoT communities online, and just generally getting kind of hyped. Most people seemed pretty positive about it. It was looking like it might actually be a good adaptation of one of my favorite book series.

Then it came out and it was the single most disappointing adaptation I’ve seen since Eragon.
