I need s3 for zoyalai if nothing else

SERIOUSLY. The only thing I got from the finale was that one crumb where Zoya and Genya walk in and Nikolai stares for a second too long and then she's all like "I could fix him" YES YOU COULD, OR YOU COULD MAKE HIM WORSE AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT PLEASE MAAM

I'm so normal about them, I promise

the only reason everyone is obsessed with shadow & bone is because of the crows' cast. none of the storyline makes sense, none them are according to the amazing plot leigh bardugo created on paper. but we're still screeching over the show only because the cast is perfect. amita suman as inej? not a single person can complain. freddy as kaz? they're intangible. kit as jesper? chef's kiss. danielle as nina? serves. wolfe as sweet, sweet wylan? can you imagine otherwise? callahan as matthias? truly a fjerdan. and there's the shadow and bone cast, which served too much too. alina, kirigan, zoya, the universal boyfriend nikolai- and everyone was perfect. i keep thirsting after everyone, squealing all throughout the show but then i sleep at night and realize how much of it ruined the effects of the book, how much of it doesn't even make sense. and i wanna throw a huge tantrum over it but then again. the cast. absolute perfection. all forgiven.

i don't think i can ever read the books again without imagining these characters. huge rant. sorry, bear with me, losing my mind over this show.

YES.

I love this cast SO much. They've done such a remarkable job with all the shit that was thrown at them this season. Most of the time I had no idea what was going on but what I DID know was that it was acted beautifully.

And I really respect how much thought they put into their characters, and how much they love the source material. I've never seen a cast understand something so deeply, and even if the script didn't necessarily give them a chance to show the depth of their characters, they tried their hardest to find a way to incorporate as much as they could from the personalities and backstories within the performances. And they have so much love for the fan base too and it makes it really really special.

The writing is awful but the cast is the heart and soul of the show

as it's been a week now, what is your solid opinion on s2? should it get renewed or nah? i can't decide how i feel but i still want to see more if that makes sense

Definitely makes sense, don't worry!

It's like from a personal perspective, I have an issue with the way they handled some of the story and the characters, but I still enjoyed it. I had a good time. However, from an actual storytelling perspective, it's very messy.

People I know irl that haven't read the books have all said the same thing. That it's very rushed and all over the place, like they couldn't decide what they wanted to do with it, or where they wanted it to go, and I fully agree with that.

The show itself covered Siege and Storm, Ruin and Rising, and a hefty chunk of Crooked Kingdom. And I understand that they probably wanted to do as much as possible in case it got cancelled, but the show really suffered because of it. I've not seen something that messy in a long time.

Do I hate it? No. Do I love it? Also, no. But I do love parts of it. And that's enough for me to want to see more, including an SoC spin-off. I want to see what they do with Alina, considering they've gone off-book with her now. I want to see what they do with the KoS storyline when they don't have multiple other things to try and squash in.

And, truth be told, I really just want to see a tank get driven through a prison wall. Is that too much to ask?
