actually it is kinda funny that BO's plot is essentially "gang of misfits come together on a quest and save the day" given that that's also the plot of the saga except they a) don't save the day and b) well

#by funny i mean it illustrates the difference between a fun but kinda generic fantasy plot #and the weird satire dark comedy tone the books have going on #like i enjoyed BO as a show but i can't look at it terms of the source material or i will go insane #it's not about nitty gritty details changed... it's about the substance and tone of the thing #like i am an apologist for the show but it's got nothing to do with the books even a little (and never did tone-wise)#BO does NOT deserve the level of hate it's getting and a lot of that hate is like. alt right pipeline #but it does suffer from a lot of netflix tv show plights like bad pacing and not enough episodes disease #and it's not related to the source material at all
