I saw the first episode, it got more than it deserved.
I've not read the books, and just enjoyed it for the story it told...who cares if it's not the books? I didn't. I'm not a subscriber of books having to be adhered to. I was just glad it was a different story that wasn't yet another Marvel / DC / Star Wars / Star Trek reboot (not saying I don't like those, but they have been done to death). Pity WoT ended up another casualty of the vocal "IT'S NOT WHAT I WANTED" brigade, like Cowboy Bebop, and seems to be being attempted on Rings of Power.
Then as the target audience, a person who's not a fan of the series and has bad media taste, get fucked by this early cancelation and cry.
