So, biggest concern from me? That show will be a subliminal manifestation, from the ideological groups. Meaning what? Meaning that they will try to make it more about "empowerment", then about the story. Cast is solid. I love the fact that they gave main role to bunch of new faces, and gave  us experience actors, who can support the young cast and carry the burden of more complicated parts on them. Some things could easily be pushed aside, as the talks about cloth and supporting characters. But, I really don't see a way for Elayne, Aviendha or Min, having different direction or love interest. Because, their love and guidance is what define Rand and his fight. Hope that they don't change that, and that show will be a success.

I absolutely agree about the 3 women. It's an important aspect of the story and does not need to be changed. Is the concern polygamy and current perception of it? Who cares, it's part of the story. GoT didn't shy away from controversial issues, and neither should WoT.

We should accept the fact that adaptation  will be different from the books. But, story line should stay the same. I mean, i stay behind the fact that something can be reduced or removed, because there are a lot of conversations in the books and running around, that we don't need. But, removing charters as Zarine or Elayne, Aviendha and Min, because you will go in another direction, will just change the story. Jordan created a world were everything is connected. Were connection are important. Brotherhood, love, anger, despair...everything is a part of that what makes us human. 

I doubt they'd drop Faile and probably make her more important as her being royal didn't bring Perrin anything. I wonder if the show makes it if they might give the borderlanders to Perrin to lead.

Well, that would be fun to see. I mean, rounding up army and commanding. Plus, it would be fun too see Berelain and Faile having a bigger contest xD!

In general I think Perrin will be more proactive because he has to be dragged kicking and screaming to his duty for most of the series. To be fair, Mat needs to be dragged too but his character is written much differently.

Yes, Perrin is always questioning himself and his action, but Mat is doing a right thing. Sometimes it looks like he is pushed, but he always does what it has to be done.

Perrin just needs alot of rearranging because all of his development is mostly shoved into TOM. I like his plot in the book but I think of the main characters, he'll change the most from book to screen.
