Naturally people will compare and contrast to the the films, and with as much love as there is for them it is fair to assume that there will be a bias against liking the show. But if you watch the show as it’s meant to be, seperate and of an earlier point in time. So far it stands on its own two feet. From the casting, which reflects the real and varied world. The quality and money spent on its creation, which in turn has produced a visually appealing and full feeling world. To its depiction of an point earlier in middle earths history, making it feel connected yet of it own. I could go on. Don’t go into watching the series expecting it to be like the films. It’s not. But it’s just as good!
