Wheel of Time

I've been enjoying season 2 more than season 1. Season 1 had some visible clunkiness, while season 2 feels tighter and more certain of itself.

Generally though, I think the show is suffering, as many shows are IME, from a lack of breathing room. 8 episodes can be rather constrictive and I suspect the show would benefit a lot from having 10 or 12 episode seasons. Something like Andor (star wars) being a good exemplar of what can be done with 12 episodes. Star Trek SNW has recently come up against this with the show runners openly calling out for having longer seasons. Generally, there seems to be a growing awareness that pushing too far into a Movie-like approach to run times can damage a TV show, and at 8 episodes, adapting source material like WoT, I suspect some damage is or is about to be done.
