‘The Wheel of Time’ Fans React to Show’s Cancellation

  • Prime Video cancelled The Wheel of Time series after its third season, which premiered in March 2025 and concluded without renewal for a fourth season.
  • The cancellation followed lengthy deliberations driven mainly by financial reasons and a decline in viewership despite improving creative reception over seasons.
  • The series adapted Robert Jordan's 14-book fantasy saga, starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine and Josha Stradowski as Rand al-Thor, focusing on a world-threatening prophecy.
  • Season 3 holds a 97% Rotten Tomatoes rating but dropped out of Nielsen's Top 10 Originals after three weeks, reflecting weaker performance versus the show’s high production costs.
  • The cancellation leaves the story unfinished before the Last Battle, and fans express sadness, hoping the show may find new life despite the creative strides made in later seasons.
