They were Pillow Friends when they were Novices - I think the TV show wanted to emphasize it a little more.Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall the Amerlyn Seat being gay with Morraine.

Yeah that's how I would do it too.So the Matt thing is stupid but I’m pretty sure that’s the episode where Barney Harris left the show. It’s a horrendous change but it had to be a nightmare for the producers at the time. The whole scene was just wonky. How they handle it in the next two episodes and into season 2 will tell us a lot about the quality of the production team.
If it was me, I’d have Matt get the dagger again because he is still “obsessed” with it. Then we could have the proper set up for everything that goes down in book 2.
He left or they fired him?I think they had to reshoot the end of the 6th episode and the last two episodes because of the actor leaving.
The writers had to completely change the story because of that. It was stated that they had already shot some scenes in the 7th and 8th episode with Mat in the episodes
He went to the Producers during filming of episode 6 and told them he had to leave.He left or they fired him?
I'm thinking he read the books, thought that's a great character, then 6 episodes in he realized what they had done to arguably the best character in the books and said later days.He went to the Producers during filming of episode 6 and told them he had to leave.
No reason has been given.
I am thinking his family had some Covid issues and he wanted to be with his family.
Unfortunately they had already filmed parts of episodes 7 and 8 already with him so they had to do complete re-shoots.
Had to completely change the story line too
Mat was the most disliked main character in the first two books.I'm thinking he read the books, thought that's a great character, then 6 episodes in he realized what they had done to arguably the best character in the books and said later days.
Shame on Harriet for taking the money and letting these people do what they've done to her late husbands masterpiece.
I have seen a lot of people complain about that but I doubt the ships could even see the one child. They were just doing a military advantage of sending a tidal wave to take out any defenses that might be on the beaches (even though I didn't see any)How about the Seanchan summoning a tidal wave to kill one child then reverberate towards their own ships after hitting a cliff lol WTF kinda writing did we get in that last episode. Good lord.
Yeah I just rewatched the final part again and there is no way that those ships could see the little girl on the beach.I have seen a lot of people complain about that but I doubt the ships could even see the one child. They were just doing a military advantage of sending a tidal wave to take out any defenses that might be on the beaches (even though I didn't see any)
And the tidal wave coming back to hit them, I think the channelers could keep that from happening.]
But yeah that episode wasn't the greatest. Bringing back Nyeave from the dead was kinda far fetched. And Rand going to sleep in the blight, well um yeah - that would have been okay if Moraine did the same thing she did in the series by making them invisible like in the book and maybe having some sort of wards to keep anything from touching them (please note - no worms in the blight that I can see so far).
Reading the book - the Myddraal took down 4 fighters at Fal Dara whereas I think they only had 2 or 3 in the room digging up the hornI was disappointed in the defense of the city by the channelers. Nyneave has generational talent. Power not seen in decades, or longer. The power of the sun.v Yet in that small group she wasn't able to channel or withstand the power any better than the rest. At the very least she should have been a supercharger for the lead channeler. I'd rather that she came in late and delivered the shockwave of a lifetime to the Trollocs and saved the women from certain death. Instead she looked quite ordinary.
The stealing of the horn was too easy also. The shades and a dark friend have no trouble killing some of the best guards in the city, while Tom Merilen single handedly whooped a shade with some knives. And what was the point in leading Perrin away? He didn't fight them anyway. He stood there like an oaf. Why not use his wolf man shtick and wolf friends to rip them apart. If he is really that passive he would have let the White Cloak kill him. He stands there as his pal Loial is getting stabbed. SMH
