This show perplexes me because supposedly many people trash it for being so woke and for changing the lore created by Tolkein but yet the series is apparently getting good enough streaming numbers to stick around. Maybe fans keep watching in the hopes that it will get better?
It has some decent scenes as you'd expect from a series where they're spending $60 million an episode, which is 4x what HBO spent on the already lavishly funded Game of Thrones series for example.
Despite that, it's mediocre at best, often venturing into cringe territory.
I know I wouldn't be watching it if I hadn't binge watched damñ nearly every other T.V and movie series during the lockdowns and when I was incapacitated for months with Covid.
