'Find the show a new home': The Wheel of Time fan pressure continues to mount on Amazon and Sony over the Prime Video fantasy show's cancelation
The Wheel of Time fans are going all-out to force a U-turn over the Prime Video show's axing after three seasons.
- 'Save The Wheel of Time' fan campaign is about to hit some key milestones

- The Prime Video show was canceled after three seasons in late May
Fan pressure is continuing to amount on Amazon and Sony Pictures after The Wheel of Time was axed in late May.
Before the high fantasy show was canceled after three seasons, its devoted fanbase had called on the series' production studios to not only renew The Wheel of Time for a fourth season, but also ensure its full story was told. Those calls came hot on the heels of The Wheel of Time's cast telling me they were "confident" over its season 4 renewal. Unfortunately for all involved, the Amazon TV Original was canned soon after.
The Prime Video show's loyal audience has refused to throw in the towel, though. In the weeks since its cancelation, a 'Save The Wheel of Time' fan campaign was organized after viewers decided to channel their frustration into something more positive. That being, unrelenting fan pressure to force a U-turn over the show's premature end.
The campaign's first three weeks have been productive, too. At the time of publication, an online petition has been signed by over 174, 600 people. Almost $33,000 has been raised via the campaign's GoFundMe page as well – donations that have allowed organizers to purchase a billboard in Times Square, New York in early June to promote the fan-led movement.
