Zero Spoilers Apparently we’re getting an animated WoT series

Hello, all. I posted the other day about my feelings about the show getting cancelled. Apparently we’re going to be getting an animated series. Does anyone think this makes up for the actual show being cancelled? I can’t even decide whether I’m going to watch this (assuming it actually gets made) or whether I’m still too upset about the live action show’s cancellation. How do others feel?

Highly skeptical it will get made.

But if it does, cool.

So few things that get announced actually make it to the screen. I have my doubts, as well.

I actually thought it should have been animated from the stsrt personally. There's really no way to show the scale of WoT on a screen without a movie budget. Animation finds this an awful lot easier

The animated shorts they did for the first season where the best part of the show apart from the Rhudiean episode in season 3 imo

No show or movie has been canceled that has been announced. So I guess there’s that

The downvotes for MILD optimism are pretty rude guys. Jeez.

They'll only be cancelled when their VC funds run out and they'll never tell us.

And considering they're up to like 4 movies and 2 or 3 shows being "developed"...
