The show is fine. It should be better, but it's not actually bad. The lore complaints beyond the simple reality that the timeline would have made all the human cast die in between episodes are either nitpicking or nonsense. But on the other hand, if you stop and think about the scopes of things, the idea that these events all took that long in the first place... Really kind of dumb itself?

There are a couple really poor choices that bookend the season though, and the armor designer should be fired. And the "Who is Sky Guy" question? Who were they trying to fool? People that haven't seen or read LotR?

I mean, I liked being right about it, but still.
