(2/2) Although it's not like the numbers are anything to be sniffed at. Slow turnaround and the expense just made everything so much harder. It's still the best fantasy show made in the last 5-10 years. That I can think of!

(1/2) Largely, I think it's the pandemic and the knock-on effect of Barney leaving. A super strong finale would have retained much more of an audience among book fans and casual viewers. It's uphill from that point as it missed out on it's full potential.

(2/2) I think it's fairer to say more people don't understand change from source material, no matter the reason. Queerness is not as present on screen in fantasy, but that's maybe just because they need to start with IPs that are more inclusive to begin with. It's less of a problem in other genres.

(1/2) RoP has diverse casting, but not queerness. Personally, I support a showrunner's right to artistic expression and including their own values into the show. People who can't understand that don't understand the performing arts. But that's a lot of people.

I read "Rick and Morty" for a second. I don't think representation was a factor in cancellation. It's likely purely that it wasn't getting enough return on investment. Cynically, perhaps diversity isn't selling as much any more, for a variety of reasons.

This is, however, my area of expertise!! 😃

I agree, but you tagged me instead of the show. I'm hopefully not cancelled yet! But yeah, it's a tragedy on every level for everyone involved and the Wheel of Time fandom.

Hello! I'm not so active on social media lately, but I'm on discord frequently!

A hood of hair. Are the showrunners trolling us?

Butt rock?
