Well, now that Wheel of Time season 1 is over, I decided to take a short break from reviews. My husband and I moved on to watching season 2 of the Witcher, and it's definitely better than season 1. We also watched Encanto, which was really enjoyable. The soundtrack is amazing, and I've been singing …

Wheel of Time – Episode 8 – The Eye of the World
Here it is, the final episode of season 1, The Eye of the World, and what a mixed bag it is. I will admit that on my first watch, I was less than thrilled with what we got. The CGI was unfinished, the storylines didn't gel, and the post-editing felt very rushed. Most of this …

Wheel of Time – Episode 7 – The Dark Along the Ways
The penultimate episode of season 1, The Dark Along the Ways, was a big one. More lore! More characters! And finally some answers. What we don't get is an Origin story. This is the first time that we've not had one with an episode, so I'm wondering if they're done? Maybe done for now. There …

Wheel of Time – Episode 6 – The Flame of Tar Valon
Amazon has delivered another Wheel of Time episode packed with world building and an introduction to new lore. There was so much that happened this episode, but before we jump into it, let's take a lot at the bonus content. Amazon fixed them! They are no longer hidden in the X-ray section but are on …

Wheel of Time – Episode 5 – Blood Calls Blood
Wow. So, before I get into this episode, I want to clarify one thing first. I did enjoy the episode, there were many fun and exciting scenes, we get yet more world building and lore, and an introduction to the Ogier. That being said, this was probably the episode I enjoyed the least, but for …

Wheel of Time – Episode 4 – The Dragon Reborn
Episode 4, the Dragon Reborn, is my favorite episode so far. I know that's not saying much since we only have four to choose from, but there is so much packed into this episode. We get what seem like off-hand comments that are actually key pieces of lore for the world. A closer look at …

Wheel of Time – Episode 3 – A Place of Safety
The title of episode 3 gives us a bit of hope for our fleeing friends from Emond's Field. After all, the position we left them in wasn't great. Before we get started with the episode, I'll go over the bonus content first. Our third origin story is titled The Greatest Warder. I was excited to …

Wheel of Time – Episode 2 – Shadow’s Waiting
We are back today with episode 2 of the Wheel of Time, Shadow's Waiting. Before we get started, I once again want to remind everyone that this is an in-depth review and deep dive into each episode, so show spoilers abound here. The purpose is to fill in the gaps and point out differences between …

Wheel of Time – Episode 1 – Leavetaking
It's here! It's here! It's finally here! I am so super excited to see this show on screen after having loved the books for so long. Not only is the show beautiful, but it's an amazing experience. I watched all three episodes as soon as they released, and I am simply over-joyed. Now, really quick …
YOU – A Netflix Original Review
Actually, I say YOU is a Netflix Original, but it originally started on Lifetime of all networks. I don't watch a lot of Lifetime, but I was under the impression this was not their type of show. It's just so dark and leaves you filling kinda… skeevy after watching it. If you don't know what …
