Why does God hate us?

I watched this while at the bar due to no economy causing no customers and GOD is it awful, just like the books.

Personally, I did not enjoy the books. While all books are certainly influenced by the author's philosophy, the Sword of Truth was like a sledgehammer to the head. Repeated every several chapters.

He comes across pretty heavy sometimes, what I'm saying.

I watched til the Mord Sith (sexy woman in red leather) was offscreen and turned the channel out of brain numbing horror.

You forgot to mention when Richard becomes Sarda, because I'm sure that's on it's way in the next book, Richard is Totally Not Terry Goodkind.

Yeah I caught this. It was like watching Xena or Hercules: The Legendary Journeys except even stupider writing and much less fun.

Hey, hey, hey.
Hercules: The Legendary Journeys was an awesome show, okay?

You can have Xena.
That was just a bad Hercules rip-off with boobs.

Mmm, maybe I haven't seen H:TLJ in a long time and just got stupid Xena mixed up, which was absolutely absurdly stupidtastic. So, okay, I'll give you that one.
