Ok. I had my reservations about this. After all, The Legend of the Seeker was a disaster.
The opening is so far terrible. More unnecessary PC BS with Girl Power.
The books never treat women poorly, so don't add this element to the show.
The actress playing Amberle is cute, but to me she should have been a blonde. AnnaSophia Rob would have been a good choice if she were available and interested.
Eritrea is very beautiful. However, I remember her in Pan's Labyrinth and as such still see her as a young girl.
Mild spoiler here:
The Chosen don't have to run a gauntlet and while the books do say females aren't normally chosen, they are occasionally chosen, but for a specific purpose. You find out even more in the Dark Legacy books that it has to be a SPECIFIC female and the Ellcrys is the one that chooses her.
Allanon as a warrior Druid? There are warrior Druids but Allanon didn't strike me as one of them.
So I really hate the opening and I hope it gets better. btw, I am not a purist, but I had a feeling this would happen to the show.
