The Rings of Power - Season 2

Warning: may contain spoilers.

Going back to the world of the Lord of the Rings was fun.

Celebrimbor done with the Dwarven rings.

I don’t remember connecting with many of the characters during season 1, except for the Stranger and Prince Durin, but in season 2 I felt closer to several of them, including Galadriel.

The Numenor story, including the Queen, Isildur and company continued to be a turn-off, I guess because of the arrogance of most characters, and lack of connection with the cast. That made the otherwise likeable Elendil, feel out of place. I kept telling myself, if I were Elendil I would get out of here. I’m not like any of them.
