Has anyone watched it? Its in my HULU queue and i was wondering if it was worth taking the time to watch. I seem to remember hearing Sean talking about it but i wonder if anyone else has seen it or has anything new to add
The hubby and I are watching. It isn’t bad. Generic fantasy stuff. Produced by the same people who brought us Hercules and Xena - I was a fan of both of those. I never read the book(s) it is based on so I can’t comment on that. I do like the show.
If you didn’t read the book it may be fun to watch. I’ve heard some people who didn’t read the book liking it very much.
I’ve read the books so for me its pretty horrible. They throw the story left and right, spit on the lore and pretty much mess everything about the characters. But the funny part is that I watch it every week still.
But sadly it was to be expected, they tried to make a Disney version of a pretty adult fantasy novel (about Game of thrones level but with less politics).
The books are really great you may want to read them after the series. But be warned the book are really hardcore (violence wise, the evil guy is a fracking maniac instead of kind of an emo in the series).
It’s really a lot like Hercules or Xena; I found myself thinking just that before I found out it was even officially related. The guy who plays the wizard does a great job, though.
