I recommend people to go watch and see if you'll loved it like I did. All and all I thought it was a great action adventure show to satisfy the fantasy lovers in all of us, just enjoy it.

However, it is not a movie or a mini series but a TV series it will not follow the book to note and can not be expected too. The show is just inspired by the novels and does plan on keeping the main story line.

When adaptations are not all I imagined, I take it as a separate thing. Although, as an obsessed fan of other books that have been adapted I understand the fans feelings, but I am also one that lets things go. He comes off more as a young man that destiny has chosen to become a hero but a hero that was bond to have a great destiny. I like him smaller as well because is makes him a character to root for even harder, he may not look like a all menacing warrior ( alla Hercules) but don't underestimate him. He will learn in his journey (by the fourth he already seems much wiser). I to thought he was stupid at times in the first two episode, but I think that they did that to show character progression and growth. Both these things I do not have an issue with. I personally have read the books but never became an obsessed fan (I have enough obsessions) and I have been reading a lot of hating from fans of the book, saying that the show gets away from the books' story line and that Richard's character has been dumped down a little and he is also physically smaller. I think people who liked Lord of the Rings, Zena, and just plain fantasy adventure stories will love this series. I am a fan of taking bits of slow downed fighting snips within a fight that just make the scene grander (alla 300), and I adore me some sword play. Zed is perfect, he adds that hint of humor while still maintaining his powerful presence. I loved the fire that lingers between Richard and Kahlan, the Confessor (I love that title/name). I immediately looked up the first two episodes that I missed online and watched them.

I missed having a great adventure, swords blazing, fantasy including and hero adoring show on TV. I loved this show, I catch is by chance on the CW this past Sunday (saw the third and forth episodes) and was instantly hooked.
