Finished the last episode of His Dark Materials last night, and I’m giving the show a perfect 5-star rating:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yes, it was somewhat altered from the books that I love so much; but the changes made sense for a TV adaptation, and I don’t feel that any of those changes detracted from the story in any substantial way. All the most important elements are present; casting and acting are superb; sets, costumes, and effects are top-notch; and I love seeing Lyra and Will come to life before my eyes.

The end broke my heart just as much as it has every time I read the books 💔 Any story that has the power to touch me so deeply is a masterpiece in my book. Just as the novels are some of my favorite books of all time, this adaptation has earned its spot in my list of all-time favorite TV shows ❤️
