Decent show but a poor adaptation overall. Too many characters changed to benefit female leads and promote "girl power", major lore and details ignored for brownie points as well. Some great performances, especially by Matt Smith but some incredibly poor ones as well. If they stuck strictly to the books and the lore, it would be a great series but as expected in this day and age, details and lore are ignored.
Season 2 continues the trait of the show runners changing things to make it their own and ruining the best parts of the story. Minor changes could be accepted as with all adaptations but the changes they've made have only served to ruin the show.
