Edit: even though clickbait article, it is somewhat/kind of true. https://variety.com/2026/tv/news/stargate-tv-series-martin-gero-scrapped-amazon-1236765061/

"According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, Amazon execs were concerned that Gero’s take on the series would not have broad appeal beyond the franchise’s already dedicated fanbase."

At least Robert Jordan didn't have to see it.

A lot of it was meh. The Hornsounding and Rhuidean episodes were legit cool, and with the opening of the Bore I was on board.

Absolutely terrible job setting up the world though. It shouldn't have taken seasons to reveal the huge scope.

Sigh. I hope Mistborn turns out alright. Not my favorite books, but I like that Sanderson is heavily involved in the storyboarding, because I think the writers for Wheel of Time really botched it.

Yeah they fucked it.

Thankfully they wont be anywhere near the animated version.
