It was awful on many levels, from bad writing, bad acting, bad editing, etc.

It was as bad as the Wheel of Time.
I struggled to get beyond the first episode and forced myself to finish season 1, hoping it would improve just a little. It didn't.

Is Season 1 worth watching?

I enjoyed it. It is worth watching. I am going to watch it again before season 2 comes out.

It’s a slow burn, but it gets better

I dislike it, but I am a big Tolkien nerd.

I'm with Nerd of the Rings in his assessment. While a net positive, just barely, & with reservations. About 5.5/10.

It was at least 10,000 times better than Wheel of Time. And that’s regardless

Season 2 of WoT was much better than season 1. I still hate the changes, but

It was entertaining. Enjoy it for what it was.

The Elrond/Dwarves in Moria parts are the only good parts

Easily the best part of the show. I agree with Nerd of the Rings, Elrond/Durin was the heart of the show.

I enjoyed it enough.

You missed absolutely nothing. Watch Bluey instead

It's better than The Wheel of Time. But House of the Dragon

It depends.

The production design was amazing, but it had major flaws.

I liked watching the recap shows that roasted each episode. Made it enjoyable.

I liked S1 despite it regularly being really, really dumb

One thing that this past decade has done for me is not like productions with obvious plot armor

At least you killed off iron man but at least the one lady got blinded.

I admit I didn't get through all of season 1. And I love tolkein. There were

I read somewhere they obtained some of the rights they were missing in the first

How many seasons are there supposed to be?

I couldn’t even make it through 1 episode of the first season. So bad

Beggar

First season lacked pretty much everything you’d want from good TV. I’m not

Squirt

Visually, it looks good. Will the story be good? Is Not Gandalf in trailer?

Hypnotoad

May 14, 8:42am

It looked expensive, but cheap at the same time...

Ooh I hope they spend lots of time turning orcs into sympathetic characters.

It's Amazon- they are pandering to their political allies.
