Besides, Horner & Regan have great chemistry and no other actress could portray Kahlan better than Bridget.

And ... let's not forget there are a lot of people who found out about the books thanks to the show and very pleased with both. No show or movie has ever fully respected the book it was based upon so don't get what's all the fuss about.

well said. i agree 100 percent. i'm on naked empire right now and just 2 weeks ago realized they had made a tv series based on the books. watched them all on hulu & enjoyed the show, not as much as the books, but i like it in its own way. each novel is way too long to be made into film, & to make a tv show it has to be done in a way that people will watch it & understand what is happening. i think they did a great job given the circumstances. i don't see what everyone's complaining about.

i feel like the director of the show didnt read the books , or care about them. they fucked the vibe up completely. terry should be pissed.

@tehRock after he draws it across the inside of his forearm, of course

@jnbeetle Richard is alot smarter in the book... In the tv series hes all brawn but in the book i figure things out. He fools Darken Rahl into opening the wrong box he does things that is far more thougt through. In the series its just slow motion sword fights etc. Im not saying the tv series isnt good its just that they are two diffrent things the only thing they got in common is the landscape and the character names. Its like a diffrent dimension of the world in the book.

This is a backwards generation, where we can actually say movies or a tv series can rival a book. Not in the level of content, or immersion, or beautiful storytelling maybe, but in a way that pleases the senses and entertains us in ways that a book can't, and maybe tv can fit in people's hectic schedules better. So what I'm saying is if it wasn't for the Legend of the Seeker, I wouldn't have known about Terry Goodkind or the Sword of Truth Series.

i love the show

[TheHanaKatsumi]

For god's sake people.....the show isnt that bad. The show might not be exactly like the books and they might of changed of few things, but you guys dont need to start ranting about something thats already done. Just think of it as a different view of the story. Its not that big of a deal.

[blackflame923]

oh and JNBEETLE who the fuck are you to rate the intelligence of war wizards? are you one?

[blackflame923]

tbh the series arnt without their charms, i LOVED! the books, but i like the tv series, who gives a fuck if richard isnt as good as he can be. who cares if some of the plots have been cut,fucking hell man think of it as extending an amazing series of books!

[yoda76dog]

Having read all the books and now watched the series I find myself getting really annoyed at the differences; [books] Zedd raised Richard - [series] is just a crazy old man at the start who Richard has nothing in common with...[books] all the Confessors are dead except Kahlan, not in the series...the Mord-Sith...Journey books??!! Aaaaggghhh!!! Too painful for me i'm afraid, I think I will stick with the books!

[jnbeetle]

errrmm.. yeah the TV show is different from the book. duh. i like both. and tom5coat, Richard is not very smart, and somewhat childish in the books. he has too be the dumbest war wizard to have been born in 3000 years. i am somewhat new to posting comments, and cannot believe how brutal people are, all the language. why do people have so much hate over nothing? if only they would direct that energy to more important things in the world. lol what a bunch of dorks.
