Addendum

For the modern audience uninterested in mischief, they should make a show about two detectives solving crimes in Las Vegas but there's magic (not prestidigitation (also prestidigitation)).

Innovation in Television

Now that season three of Wheel of Time is over, Amazon should announce a new season, but it's just season one again, then two, then three. At no point should Amazon acknowledge they're reruns. It's thematically resonant syndication for the mischief-loving modern audience.

I Don't Think Parodies of Specific Books Within Series Are Hot Right Now

But if they were, what do you think? The Fryers of Heaven, The Fryers of Leaven, The Friars of Heaven, or The Friars of Kevin? The third sounds like it might be a real book, but the people who know will know. The fourth should probably be part of a series itself.

The Basis of Preference

I'd be more interested in a lot of books if the main character had a name more like Wild Scradzer. Rand and Locke just don't do it for me.

Wheel of Time Wish Corner

Does anyone else wish it could somehow be arranged for the Wheel of Time TV show to release a season finale every week? I just can't get enough of those things. I don't even have to watch them.

Wheel of Time Season Finale

I didn't watch it, but did some background Seanchan or Whitecloak discourse on the history of heron-marked blades or wolf breeds or something? If not, I'd like to make a recommendation for next season.

Videogame Adaptation Corner

Wheel of Time, here we go: Puzzle Quest clone. That's right, there are different classes such as Green Ajah, Red Ajah, and Wilder. You've got the different types of tokens or whatever you call the things you match, you can have a Warder slot (Greens get 2, Reds 0), you get an angreal slot and a ter'angreal slot, it's perfect.

Red Hair

It's tough. On the one hand, I want to support redheads as the entertainment industry tries to extirpate them from all fiction, and so I should change "annoying" to "fiery" in every reference to them. On the other hand, red hair never looks fiery. Never.

Wheel of Time Season 2 Is a Big Step Up!

I was assured of that by several internet posters! Who all used that exact phrase! Because that's what the booklet told them to write!

Wheel of Time Season 2

I thought about it, but it turns out Matlock is available on Amazon Prime. I'm sure everyone understands.

Discussion Corner

When another Wheel of Time TV show is produced in thirty years after we're all dead, should it be a game show? That's what the name would lead one to suspect, after all. A history-based quiz show? A bunch of challenges like stand on one leg for three minutes? An endurance battle of flames and scorpions? That'll probably be legal by then.

Wheel of Time Season 2

I'm excited for all the wrong reasons! No emotion exists for me but spite! It's going to be great!

Now That This Is a James Bond Fanblog

Hey how about that latest James Bond news? That there isn't going to be any? What do you think about the fact that it takes them longer not to make a movie than it used to take to make one? That they take three times as long to make products that are zero point eight two times as good? That nearly the entire entertainment industry has suffered some kind of silent cataclysm and can't get it together? They can't even make Star Wars games, and Amazon accidentally gave hundreds of millions of dollars to a couple nobodies to make Silmarillion fanfiction. What happened?

Words That Are No Good

Contumely and contumacious. Who can remember which is which? Brainiac? Encyclopedia Brown? Not a normal Joe al'Shmoe, that's for sure.

Musical Musings

Q. What kind of soundtrack should a Wheel of Time TV show have?
A. Either baroque or grinding PC-98 death music.

A Note on Fantasy Adaptations

An opinion is making the rounds that holds fantasy series should be adapted into animated series. This is incorrect. They should all be FMV games.
