Hear me out. The beginning of game of thrones, everyone raved about. Then they ran out of source material, and it went down hill from there. 3BP is a completed series, so I’m hopeful yet
They ran out of source material but also rushed to kill off the series so that they could go work on (and quickly be fired from) Star Wars.
It’s not just they ran out of source material, it’s that the stuff they made up suggested they didn’t really understand the source material in the first place; GoT was great in the early seasons despite its showrunners, not because of them. The source material was the only thing keeping it together, and once they lost that they had nothing.
Honestly, never saw an episode of game of thrones, so I’m just going off of what I’ve heard from others.
lucky bastard. if you ever do just stop at season 6 and pretend the show got cancelled.
If Dumb and Dumber are involved with it, I don’t want anything to do with that.
When was the last time Netflix released a good show?
Probably the first season of Stranger Things.
Pepperidge Farms remembers?
The Sandman is a good show, but to be fair it builds on amazing existing stories.
Beef was pretty good but that was an A24 production
Could be worse - they could let Lauren Hissrich go full Witcher on the series.
We shall never bend the knee!
How many series based on 3BP are there anyway? There’s a Chinese CGI one, one made in Minecraft, apparently another anime thing, a Netflix series and at least one other?
I watched The Chair all the way though before realising those hacks were involved. Got to be careful!
I’m nervous about these yahoos writing and producing but I like 3BP so I’m gonna at least watch a couple of episodes. That having been said: Tencent has a really great, faithful adaptation that you can watch on Prime or YT (YT also has all 30 eps for free)
I loved this book series. I hope they don’t softball on the Chinese cultural revolution parts.
