I remember that TV show as well I hated it because the characters didn't fit my imagining of how they would look/act from my interpretation of the books.

Little did I know at the time that this would be a recurring theme whenever I watch an adaptation of a book after reading said book first! I always try to watch before reading now to save any dissapointment
