What the audience says
The Wheel of Time has pulled the kind of numbers most English series never see. It's sitting at 7.6/10 on TMDB across 2,516 ratings, which puts it comfortably above average. In Japan you can stream it on Prime Video.
Is it worth starting?
This is 3 seasons deep — English sci-fi & fantasy with a drama streak. Several seasons in, so it's a commitment to start rather than a one-night sampler.
- Why
- Currently 7.6/10 from 2,516 ratings, which is a good sign this early.
- Skip if
- a backlog this size is the opposite of what you're after
- Best for
- A proper binge, once you've got the weeks for it
Story
The lives of five young villagers change forever when a strange and powerful woman arrives, claiming one of them is the child of an ancient prophecy with the power to tip the balance between Light and Dark forever. They must choose whether to trust this stranger – and each other – with the fate of the world before the Dark One breaks out of His prison, and the Last Battle begins.
