The first 2 episodes premiered a couple of days ago. I have watched both of them and I have to say that I think it got off to a real solid start. I'm definitely interested in seeing more of it.

I still don't feel quite as negatively about this show as some people on the internet but I do find myself enjoying it less and less every episode as some issues don't seem like they are ever going to be addressed.

Examples:

• Why is Galadriel not at all acting like the ancient, legendary commander she is supposed to be?
• How is it that everyone is just blind/unaware of the invading enemy force in a major region?
• Why is a whole kingdom of people able to switch from against-mobilizing to pro-mobilizing overnight?
• "The Rings of Power" ok but like.... we are like 6 episodes in with only 2 more to go for the reason and no one has even mentioned any rings yet (although there was kind of allusion to something being worked on).
