I think there will be political roadblocks to her being able to hold Sauron back, which can be a good engine for TV drama. Giving them an actual friendship, that seems to be not entirely artificial on Sauron's part (tying into the very Tolkienien theme of nobody being simply or fully "Evil") is kind of brilliant in my book. This show will not suffer from the "Big Angry Eye" antagonist problem.</blockquote>
