And as such, im enjoying this series.

Matter of fact my wife caught some glimpses of it and i think their world creation has caught her interest. And she ****ing HATES LOTR movies. (why i have no idea. She loves high-fantasy. It's those ****ing hobbits i tell ya)

Yeah, those movies are great. It's honestly not even fair to compare this show to those movies because it will almost certainly pale in comparison no matter what it accomplishes.

I’ll keep watching, but the dialog and costumes are ridiculous.

So, I'm interested in the concept and I don't know what to think; reviews all seem political.

Is it worth watching, or don't bother?

I would say if you liked the original LOTR, then they are worth watching. That said, 3 episodes in, they are underwhelming and fairly boring. A lot of these streaming series are falling into the trap of taking a 2 1/2 hour movie and stretching it out to 10 1-hour episodes, bloated with extra slow-moving background on every episode. So far I am not that impressed with it. But I am still hopeful that the action will pick up.

Next episode will be very telling. There are only 8 episodes, and halfway through a season is where things should really start to pick up.

If episode 4 is as boring as the first 3, that probably means the payoff won't be there this season.

I will say, even though it wasn't necessarily good, episode 3 was at least the best one yet.

Might as well have had the CW vomit out this tripe.
If you enjoy it, cool, I guess. Just don't try telling Tolkien fans they have to like it. If you do, expect to be told in 50 different ways how you are a complete ****ing reerun with zero taste.

This show does a lot of that. Brief shots of beautiful backgrounds are nice enough. But there are pauses with no one talking, with characters just standing around and reacting with facial expressions in situations where it isn't warranted. A lot of that in the snoozy shitfest that is the Harfoot section of the show.

Remember, of all "the Wise" in middle earth, Gandalf is the only one who thinks much of hobbits. They're clearly setting up the backstory for that attitude.

Could be Sauron. I've seen quite a few suggestions of that online.

Gandalf in the books wasn't supposed to be in Middle Earth till much later. But they could definitely be creating something new with Gandalf that wasn't in the books. Who knows.
