After finishing the first episode of the show, I turned off the television and spent 20 minutes explaining why I refused to watch another second of it to my wife.
After watching the entire first and second seasons my wife still didn’t (edit: completely) understand what the dark one is, what it wants, or who Rand is, why he’s important, or who the forsaken are and what they want.
I think that says a lot about the shows inability to convey even fundamental foundational information about the series.
ETA: Once I explained everything to her it all made sense, but that should have been the shows job, not mine.

That’s so bad that I’m kind of impressed.
