same that final season it really killed it for me , not sure I can bring myself to watch it yet but probably will eventually.

Enjoyed the first 2 eps of LOTR's ROP ,Its gave me more questions on Sauron in lord of the rings than anything though !it has a few niggles but looks good overall :lol: Not buying into the faux /attention outrage or reviews anymore online so will make it more enjoyable and happy for it to play out for now.

I really like it. Was expecting it to be **** for some reason. It has a wholesome splash of colour and humour compared to GoT, even if the CGI makes it look like a video game at times.

Yeah my point of view is that changes have to be made to adapt most things to tv /film.im happy just to have some Tolkien universe stuff to watch. We had that 70s animated thing for too long as the only adaptation

I got through 20 minutes of the first episode before turning it off. Half of that was a man walking down corridors.

Severance was brilliant. What's wrong with you?

Anything else worth watching on Apple TV?

Feels like the show is achieving what TWD was trying to in its later seasons. Superb performances last night.

It didn't end. It just set up more spin offs. Complete waste of my life that show.

I just felt it wasn't going anywhere & it turns out it never did, I guess for you & most you had come so far you were going to watch it till the end no matter what.

I got a year free. Just finished the first season of Slow Horses. Worth watching for Gary Oldman alone.
