This failed pilot broke the world… er, fandom of ‘The Wheel of Time.’
The Big Picture Six years before Prime Video's record-breaking adaptation of The Wheel of Time premiered in 2021, there was a failed pilot episode called Winter Dragon that attempted to adapt the prologue to the first book, The Eye of the World. The Dragonmount prologue is notoriously known to be confusing for first-time readers of the series, and it is often said that fans should go back and reread to fully understand what happened.
The Failed 'Wheel of Time' TV Pilot Was a Matter of Rights Red Eagle Entertainment, one of the production companies behind this pilot, found themselves in a predicament: they were about to lose the film and television distribution rights to The Wheel of Time. Their solution was to rush a low-budget production of a TV pilot to be aired at 1:30 ECT on FXX so they could keep the rights to Robert Jordan's book series.

Researchers produce polymers from ballbot-type carbenes for the first timeN-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are small, reactive ring molecules that bond well with metallic surfaces, and which over the past few years have attracted a great deal of interest in the field of the stable chemical modification of metallic surfaces. One property—discovered at the University of Münster in Germany a few years ago—is the ability that certain NHC derivatives have, not only to anchor themselves to individual metal atoms, but also to completely extract an individual atom from the surface. Having bonded with these so-called adatoms, the NHCs glide freely over the surface—like a ballbot, i.e., a robot that moves on a sphere.
