Why did the main video canceled the wheel of time after three seasons

The “Wheel of Time” series is officially completed by Prime Video. Although the show was still burning in the glow of the third season, which many praised as a cinematic achievement that deserves any fictional story, it has now stopped suddenly (albeit unexpected).

As for many other members at the base of the fans, “Time Human”, this is tragic news for this poor writer. It is near and dear production on my heart. Along with Kony, a fan of the original book series, I was invited to visit Jordan Studios in Prague two years ago. I saw dozens of More than 300 collections designed studio For the exhibition (many of which are included in the Soviet truck transport facility dating back 350,000 square feet). I met producers, actors, and crew, and I saw the dance design serials practiced in actual time, until I watched the first two episodes of the second season correctly at The Warm ComFort of the Winespring Inn with popcorn and soft Flagon from two rivers on hand. (No joke.)

Trust me when I say I saw the scale, commitment and love invested in this production. She saw that she was growing in her popularity even when she expanded her story and was able to adapt a huge amount of source material to an interesting and interesting serial adaptation (albeit severely cut).

So, what is the mistake that happened, then? What has installed this project that seems healthy and common to seem brighter in the future than one power itself? In the word: Money.

If you were wondering what was the impressive Robert Jordan adaptation, it was the great dollar. according to Delivery dateThe news of the cancellation of the offer, the decision not to renew the show for the fourth season came after long deliberations. The post added:

As in the current economic environment, the reasons were financial, as the series is loved by executives in banners.

Details of the “current economic environment” are highlighted. The implicit meaning is that if the show is broadcast at better times, it will remain on the right path for the fourth season stings. The most sad part is that this last thing: even the main video clip who made the difficult decision such – and they were not alone. It was impressive, and the audience knew it. The classifications were at all levels at all when the offer was canceled. Time of Time Rotten Tomatoes fans jumped from 38 % to 60 % between the first season and the second season. The third season became darkerI picked up the pace, and reached the lounges of Luver, with the audience with a score of 83 % to this writing. The critical grades were generally kindly all the time, but they still stand at 97 % very impressive for the 3th season.

However, the lifeline is diminished in the show (actual scenes) over the course of three seasons. According to the deadline, Time wheel season 1 It was the main video The first show of the most watched series for 2021 And launch the best 5 ever at the time. Although viewers remained relatively strong, especially globally, it was not enough. The offer did not reach the 10 best copies of Nelsen during the first three weeks of the third season. Fortunately, the creators were smart enough to see the wall writing and formulate the conclusion of the third season with at least a degree of closure (as much as possible in the intertwined Jordanian mammoth).

Myself, the cancellation was always a possibility after I visited the group. If this is not clear now, this was not because the show was bad. On the contrary, that was significantly good and showcase a great team. It is also important, I also made what I consider a rare achievement in Modern Media: I have strengthened a mountain of source materials (14 huge books from the original Robert Jordan series) to something similar to a coherent and convincing story.

No, it was not the same production that made me think that the show was heading to the cutting block. The tremendous cost associated with production was. As usual with the Prime Video Tentpole series, the studio poured a lot of money in everything, from VFX to collections and cinematography and every other element. During the collection, I saw dozens of hair pieces and detailed costumes. They had to use a golf to transport people for interviews, not only for rest but because it could have been walking from one group to another.

Tar Valon collection was particularly impressive. She had a real gate, giant, at least two stories in most areas, and out of sight. The side roads were real, and all the pillars were legitimate. I remember picking the smallest piece of PEALDLER package and monitoring its handmade complications. amazing? definitely. (The student who taught a lot inside me was going out all the time.) An expensive, though? You are betting on the lower dollar. If anything was governed by this production from the beginning, the excessive investment in making a really amazing offer was impressed by the smallest fashion details to the largest group.

It is a shameful matter that the “wheel of time” is heading to the Hollywood bears. But do not make mistakes, even if the heavy public budget in the bad economy is what this did, it leaves behind three seasons of the best imaginative fictional features.
