minus-squarePons_Aelius@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·1 year agoI stopped watching mid-season 2 and haven’t thought much about the show in the following decade. What I like is not the same for everyone. Now adopt that thought to what you are saying about the TV show. You don’t like that it is not word-perfect with the books. I am glad it isn’t. If you don’t like where the show is going, stop watching as I did with the boring dead. The books still exist, and you can reread them anytime.
