As a huge fan of Discworld, Dune and Middle Earth I have learned to realize screen adaptations will always be different and have different pacing and character changes to appeal to what we see rather than what we imagine.
Maybe it is a change in the Atreides and Harkonnen's or who rescues Frodo at the fords you have to take each interpretation on its on values. Yes this really only uses Sir TP's characters and setting in the loosest sense but on it's on it is a good and well acted drama.
Like Gaimen, Tolken, adams, Herbert... Pratchett stories are never going to be easy fit onto the small or large screen. Even the previous attempts have fallen well short of the books.
Enjoy the books and enjoy this as cousins rather than faithful adaptions and you will surely enjoy.... I mean who ever wants a cover of a song to be exactly the same. I for one as a huge Discworld fan embrace this.
