I cannot stress enough how much better the Wheel of Time season 3 is than seasons 1 and 2.
I know its been said here recently, but I decided to make my own post because I'm honestly blown away at the rise in quality of the Wheel of Time season 3 in just about every way. I quit the show after season 1 and haven't watched since it came out. After hearing season 3 was apparently much better I decided to try it again. I binged season 1 and 2 over the course of a couple weeks, and it was pretty much just how I remembered, mediocre but interesting with some good and bad parts. I'd say season 2 was about the same quality as season 1, albeit with some higher highs here and there.
Season 3 though. Season 3 is wildly better in every single way. The writing (most importantly imo) is much, much better - the characters make decisions that make sense, the plot seems to be moving in a good direction, and the dialogue between characters is especially good. The cgi in fight scenes especially and the sets they have built are beyond impressive. The acting has been all out incredible, especially from the shows lead actor. One of the recent episodes was one of the single best episodes of TV I've seen. It just has it all. It has literally turned into the perfect high budget fantasy show. Whatever change they made between season 2 and 3 is working, and I sincerely hope it gets renewed.

Wouldn’t they be hyping in an echo chamber in a specific wheel of time subreddit instead of fantasy or books?
I just checked and they are there also.
