Anyone else annoyed by ridiculously overpowered superheroes?

But, was the failure to be renewed a result of Richard's increasing invincibility, or was it due to some other factor? The book series didn't appear to dwindle all that much from it. Even though the book series came to an end a while back, there is still enough of a market for it that another prequel hit bookstores a few days ago.

I happen to think that the big reason that the show didn't do so well is that its producers played the political correctness game with it a bit too much.

Renaming it from "Wizard's First Rule" to "The Legend of the Seeker" in order to draw less criticism from pseudo-sanctimonious audiences of the United States and elsewhere who might have opposed the concepts of sorcery, made it a whole lot less interesting than it could have been.

Worse, is the way the whole "rule number one" was introduced. Who disagrees with me that the introduction to the actual rule behind "Wizard's First Rule" in the book series was a whole lot more interesting?

My take is that when anybody sees the show before reading the books and then reads the books is going to be, a lot more interested in the books, than in the show.

Not that the series is all that bad, really, but, like the originator of this thread, I happen to agree that it really isn't anywhere near as interesting as it could have been, and nowhere near as interesting as I had expected it to be.

Yes, those are armies. It is possible for a small army to defeat a much bigger army. It is not possible for 2 people to kill 200 in a sword fight.

You guys are forgetting that Kahlan often confessed some of the soldiers to fight for her. Just because they are an army doesn't mean that they were a competent army.
