Kathryn VanArendonk New York Magazine/Vulture In its second season, the Amazon fantasy series Wheel of Time, based on the unending Robert Jordan novels that start out like a Lord of the Rings rip-off, is a TV series that has figured itself out. Oct 11, 2023 Full Review Ben Travers IndieWire While I may not understand everything about The Wheel of Time, I can spot benchmarks of a Season 2 slump without any help from the One Power... Season 1 felt like it was moving. Season 2 feels like someone jammed a stick in its spokes. Rated: C- Sep 18, 2023 Full Review Clint Worthington RogerEbert.com Following a first season that struggled to build momentum, it’s doubly frustrating to see “The Wheel of Time” keep up that go-nowhere sensibility. Sep 1, 2023 Full Review Jon Negroni TV Line ...watching The Wheel of Time doesn’t hold a candle to sitting down with the novels for the first time and breathing in this story as Robert Jordan intended. But if it keeps up this momentum, who’s to say that pattern won’t change? Oct 7, 2023 Full Review Leon Miller Cultured Vultures A marked improvement on its predecessor, The Wheel of Time: Season 2 serves up an engaging – if decidedly free-spirited – adaptation of Robert Jordan’s beloved fantasy novels. Rated: 7.5/10 Oct 6, 2023 Full Review James Field Pajiba If you enjoyed last season and can let go of any expectations from the books, season 2 is worth the investment.

Liam M Each season just gets better and better Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/25/25 Full Review Julie B. I love this series! It is the best fantasy series on TV! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/23/25 Full Review Jennifer A Madeline Madden was so amazing in this season. Pour the water Egweyne!!!! I just wish these seasons were longer. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/23/25 Full Review Mart v Ishy and Lanfear make this season a must watch, the wheel of time adaptation truly did the forsaken justice and as a fan I want more Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/22/25 Full Review Abdul moeed K Wheel of time is best Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/20/25 Full Review Vanessa R I watched this season in real time and it definitely held my attention week to week. The team dealt well with tricky casting changes and kept the storytelling on track while creating emotional depth. Once a show has established its main characters, especially with such a large ensemble, then it can truly begin to spread it's wings. This season we had much more information about the many different forces at work in the world of The Wheel of Time while still exploring character journeys and emotional arcs. The finale felt satisfying and rousing. The visuals are stunning and there are some really great performances this season - particularly from Rosamund Pike and Madeleine Madden. This is a show that develops a lot of characters and gives space to allow relationships to organically grow. Eylane was an instantly likeable new addition demonstrating chemistry with the established cast and Liandrin continues to grow in such a compelling way. Having secondary character fleshed out in this way makes the world much more interesting and believable and I find this very satisfying this season although I do understand that this means some other characters might not get as much time to shine. All told, this is a fantastic fantasy show that doesn't worry itself with putting on a facade for views - it tries to be true to the story it is trying to tell and that is very refreshing.
