I really dig it as well, and I don’t think the YA ruins anything.
I love His Dark Materials. The HDM trilogy is my favorite series ever since I first read them in 5th grade. Phillip Pullman made some truly remarkable characters and the worldbuilding is so, so good. I think the show is about as close as you could get to staying faithful to the books. I’d highly recommend checking them out if you’re a reader. The last book, the Amber Spyglass, is especially good.
Really enjoyed it with my partner.
She grew up religious so was able to help me with all the symbolism.
I think James McAvoy did an excellent job when he was on screen.
It's... Okay. That's the best way I can sum it up, but maybe I'm not the target audience, as I read the books, gave them 3/5 rating and forgot everything about them.

c/nerdgeist is a community space dedicated to sharing and discussing anything in the current "nerd zeitgeist". This could be movie casting news, new video game discussions, whacky theories about your favorite franchises, or just about anything that the modern nerdy person would enjoy or want to talk about.
My hope for this channel is that it becomes a hub for people to talk about the things that maybe are a harder to talk about IRL because folks may not have the same interests as you. It's a great feeling when you're pumped about something and you find someone else who is too! Lets make this a space where those feelings happen much more often.
