Generic looking sets and costume designs. Silly looking and executed magic. A vague cliche plot about a chosen one and a scary bad guy that he must stop, and that we are told is bad and scary, but never shown. And worst of all, a constantly moving plot that never really stops to develop its characters. It was never clear what exactly was going on, or why I should care.

I know it's based on one of the most well known series of fantasy novels, but this adaptation was just so poorly executed. It is the opposite of Game of Thrones, in that it feels oddly cheap and inaccessible, which is weird considering how much money Amazon sunk into it.

Hopefully they learn and do better in season 2.
