If you have read and enjoyed anything by JRR Tolkien, this show is not for you. If you just want to be entertained, unfortunately this show still is not for you. For Tolkien fans, you will get something akin to fan fiction but far worse. Most fan fiction is written by people who have a knowledge and love of the source material. This was clearly written by come corporate hacks who, if anything, have contempt for Tolkien the man as well as for what he spent a lifetime creating.
For those that have not read Tolkien (go read his works, they are amazing!), but want some enjoyable entertainment, you will not find it here. It is filled with tropes and the usual ham-fisted political and social messaging that defines most of the pablum a/k/a content being pushed on the modern viewer. In short, this show is a disaster and not worth your time.
