Well it should be obvious to anyone watching these newer Rice series, that the property owners really don't care. The books are so much better and the lead actress just is not convincing. No spoilers but the things I found different in the series compared to the books are that it is really hard to follow the genealogy in the series, the vision scenes don't make sense, and they like to pull things back in so we don't forget. Rowan is supposed to be a bright neurosurgeon, but this only gets referenced lightly and instead we are given an actress that seems to only understand emoting confusion. It just makes the series drag although it does leave room for others to fill. There are also a couple of important characters omitted and added to help push the story narrative they keep hinting at. Anyway it has all the usual notes of women are super powerful and motherhood (omg this latest ep in s2 was just awful lol) family are cray cray and things don't have to make sense to be a full story. I don't expect tv series to be like the books exactly and while I appreciate the nice sets and costumes, choosing weak leads seems to be a habit with these. Who knows maybe it is just bad AI script interpretation but something is missing and people seem to be off their game in the writing dept. I say this harshly because when you already have source material and do not have to generate anything, it takes a special talent to somehow mess that up. I am going to finish the series but really hope there is an "aha" moment that clues me in to what they were thinking with this.
