For me it's definitely the Dark Tower, but the Golden Compas was also a huge letdown.

It feels more like an addition than an adaptation (it isn't, but it's the only perspective in which the show can be good). I'm a big fan of the books, and I'm also enjoying the show so far.

The show is so well done I don't even mind that it's not like the books

Even by itself, the show makes no sense.

From the first season I thought the Trantor stuff was awesome but the Terminus stuff sucked. Never have I had a show where I was more divided.

I was this close to skipping the Terminus stuff, I just couldn't give a shit about it and was constantly waiting to see Trantor and the beefcake to do some boss shit
