What Season 3’s RT Score Means For The Wheel Of Time
This May Be The Best Season Yet
By earning such strong responses,The Wheel of Timeseason 3 proved that the show hasyet to truly stumble after its lukewarm arrival. It has never seen a season-to-season Tomatometer score that increased by less than 5%. Similarly, the Popcornmeter score has always increased by at least 9%. That trend is unlikely to remain, as a potentialThe Wheel of Timeseason 4would find it difficult to have such a significant jump. After all, if it repeated season 3’s improvements on season 2, it would achieve a rare 99% Tomatometer score and a 98% Popcornmeter score.
While the leap may not be as tremendous, there is still room for improvement in the future.ScreenRant’s Nick Bythrow reviewed season 3andpraised the characters and the cinematographywhile admitting that the story itself “can feel overly busy at times.” The oversized cast often gets in the way of telling a clear and comprehensible story, as future episodes will reveal better. Bythrow was still positive about the season and leaves the show with criticism that provides a roadmap to achieving that coveted 100% Tomatometer score.
