Legend of the Seeker or I'm so totally geeked in a fangirly way.

So I knew that Terry Goodkind author of the Sword of Truth series was turning the series into a tv show, but I figured it was never gonna happen, kind of like Anne McCaffrey's Dragon Rider's of Pern never made it to tv. 

However...this one totally did as Legend of the Seeker.  It's coming on November 1st, like a pre-birthday present just for me.  And okay, so maybe Richard's a little young and pretty for how I always pictured him and the woman playing Kahlan isn't at all how I pictured her either, and I've never heard of either of the actors it just might not suck completely.

(Note: this is me being cynical so that I can say 'I told you so' and not be totally depressed when it does suck. If it doesn't suck I will be completely estatic.)  

I'm already fairly estatic.  This has the ability to be a very cool show, if they even include half of the book stuff, which I hope they do.  It's actually one of the books I know of that let the female characters interact in some way that isn't fighting and/or bonding over a man.  

Anyway, I'm geeked.  It's a fangirl's dream come true.  Yayness, etc.  :p

*squees* Absolutely awesome; I love this series and I had no idea that there were tentative plans for this to become a series, so this is doubly awesome. In fact, if there were just a tiny bit of slash, the series would be perfect, though some of the subtext could make you drool. Actually, now that I think of it, I've been meaning to look for some slashy fanfic, preferrably involving Kahlan, but it rather got lost in the shuffle. I need to get back in to this fandom, especially cannon, before the series comes out. And I, like you, am trying to be cynical so I don't get all my hopes crushed, but the excitement is really hard to suppress *grin*
