THIS IS NOT PRATCHETT THIS IS GARBAGE!
4 January 2021
How dare BBC America create this abomination and declare it is based on anything Sir Terry Pratchett wrote, the screenplay for this was clearly written by some imbecile who had never seen a Discworld novel before let alone ever read one.

This is written, produced and directed by the same people that Terry Pratchett lampooned in the discworld series of books calling themselves the "CAMPAIGN FOR EQUAL HEIGHTS" a group of Humans who claim to be campaigning on behalf of the dwarves (Clearly because they felt so superior to dwarves that the dwarves themselves were incapable of campaigning on their own behalf) yet caring little to nothing what the dwarves themselves might have to say about it).

If this mention of Sir Terry was supposed to get Sir Terry Pratchett's millions of fans on board they have clearly missed the target by at least three Dimentions and a whole Universe.

This abomination stands as testiment that the people who have assumed the mantle of "GUARDIANS OF ENTERTAINMENT" for themselves in the discworld they would be "THE CAMPAIGN FOR EQUAL HEIGHTS" have any sense of humour or even a base knowledge of IRONY (No it doesn't mean having the properties of IRON).

The title and the line "Based on the characters from Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels" promises the Pratchett fan a cornucopia of Discworld feasts (See Nanny Oggs Cookbook) but delivers a dogsh__ sandwich.
