Honestly, every time a big show like The Wheel of Time gets cancelled, social media just explodes. But with the wheel of time cancelled, it happened even faster because the fanbase is so into it and the books have been around forever. People have been waiting for a good adaptation for like decades. Then to see the show finally get going and then end so suddenly really hit a nerve with everyone. I remember right after I saw the news on Twitter, my group chats started blowing up with stuff like, 'No way, is this for real?' and 'They just gave up right when it was getting good?!' Plus, the timing kind of helped the trend blow up, because fans had just been hyping the new season and were already posting. The more everyone complained or shared memes, the more it snowballed. That’s just how the internet works—bad news gets a lot of clicks, and people hate feeling like their favorite show is getting cut off too soon.
