She come off as all powerful but I’ve found tv villains more likeable.I can’t think of another fantasy show where the lead is this bad . She has zero personality, poor leadership etc. there are even times where you expect her to start making out with Sauron etc. she jumps into the ocean because she hates Sauron and then betrays her entire race because he tricked herElrond-at time’s likeable but this times were when with Durin. Other that if his name was Joe and not Elrond I wouldn’t care about his scenesDurin and the dwarves-other than the nursery rhyme being the key their scenes were ok especially the father and DurinTheo-I call him the (adric an old dr who companion of the show). He’s a character I just want eliminated from the show. He’s not even a good villain like a Joffrey from GOT he’s just awfulIsildur-wow so far huge disappointment Arondir- basically the Jackson hobbit version of Legolas but unlike Legolas he doesn’t have gimli for the banterHal brand-the character isn’t believable even in a fantasy sense and isn’t a good villain. I’d match him up against many tv villains he would come up shortNori and the hobbits-nori is likeable but her screen time was mostly filled with a confused old man who for 99% is unlikeable and she is sorrounded by harfoot that at times are homicidal maniacs to somewhat likeableI’m willing to put this up against a bunch of shows with Lower budgets for one o f those blind taste test audiences and I bet it loses</blockquote>
