Oh, no, I loved Nynaeve! She is deeply suspicious of Moraine because of how her mentor was treated by the White Tower, she manages to track and sneak up on Lan, she responds well to him treating her with respect and asking for her help and considerably less well to the red Aes Sedai trying to wheedle information out of her. And she was way more relaxed around the guards than the Aes Sedai, which I think says a lot about how she sees herself and the Aes Sedai in general.

But yeah, either the actor playing Rand is dull or they're not giving him much to do, because he was very unconvincing even in that one scene with the Big Bad where he should have been showing emotions all over the place.

ayrt. See, for me, there was a lot of telling and very little showing. Like when she hung out with the the guards, I believe Lan (or someone) mentions that she's been spending every night chilling with them to Moiraine and they exchange meaningful looks about it. That's how I knew Nynaeve liked the guards, not really by anything she did or said during her time actually with them.

And Moiraine and Lan talking about her furthered the romantic relationship with Lan way more than any of their interactions did. Though Lan served her some amazing eyes. I could sort of see it when she followed him home but I also read the tension there as less 'I like this guy' more 'I trust no one so Imma creep around'.

Yeah, I just think after 8 episodes we should have a much better understanding of the characters and care about them much more. I don't know if they need to tighten the script, work on the acting, or what, but something needs to be improved.
