What Did You Watch? 2025-04-18 (Friday)

No one else has stepped up, so I guess I'll do today's WDYW?
Yesterday, I got through:
soaps: DOOL - Wed's ep. Rafe is such a heel - I hope Jada dumps his ass, which will be doubly-ironic if Sami does leave town any second now. Meanwhile, Xander throws Kristen out on her ass. And I think Vivian is going to screw over Philip and Kate, after they refused to do her bidding, by telling Xander that she forged the letter that got Philip half of Xander's inheritance.
The Wheel of Time (Prime) - The last 4 episodes of season #3.
    I probably won't have the time/desire to write a detailed review of this, so in case I don't, here are the broad outlines:
    Season #3 was the best season yet - as I told Anim: season #1 was rough (esp. the beginning and the ending), season #2 was overall good, and season #3 was better.
    Now, of course, "The Wheel of Time" book series is also supposed to get better as it goes, and I think the book(s) adapted for season #3 are supposed to be among the book series' best, so maybe that's not surprising. But unlike a show like, say, "Yellowjackets", at least this show's getting better as it goes, not worse and worse.
    This season opens with a barn-burner of an episode - I dunno that I've ever seen so much crammed into a season premiere before.
    This season should also put to rest any doubts about Josha Stradowski as Rand al'Thor - I wasn't sure the guy could act myself back in season #1, but he's improved with every season, and in season #3 he actually delivers.
    I think they lucked out with Natasha O'Keeffe as Lanfear - she's generally the most interesting thing on screen, so it's good that O'Keeffe shines in the role and you can't take your eyes off her.
    Of course they make the cute redhead Elayne, played by lovely English actress, Ceara Coveney, a lesbian, just to irritate me. They do give Coveney a whole song sequence in one of the episodes, so apparently she sings too.
    They add Shohreh Aghdashloo as a scheming Aes Sedai to season #3 and she's a welcome addition to the show.
    I gather the season finale deviates greatly from the novels in killing off a major player(? unless it's somehow faked?) - I have no idea how they will handle that going forward.
    This show has not been renewed for season #4 yet - I very much hope it will be (and honestly I expect it too), as it's frankly better "The Rings of Power" series. Hopefully they give the show a final 2-season or 3-season renewal soon.
