Agree. It really seems to be going nowhere.

I also agree, I’m enjoying it to a degree but it’s 4 hours in and nothing has really happened yet. I like a couple of the characters/actors though. Arondir and Elrond. I’m curious to see the story of Isildur unfold though.

I'm also watching Rings of Power hoping it will pique my interest and become much more engaging than it was in the first few episodes.

As for the first four episodes, it's a bit unfocused and dull, but I get the sense it's treading water and establishing characters before something major happens.

I’ll also add that so far House of the Dragon is blowing it out of the water!

Yeah it's establishing itself at a much better pace.

It's just so much better in every way.

Watched season 1 of The Detectives still funny after all the years of not seeing it. Jasper Carrot and Robert Powell play so well off each other great stuff.

Just watched episode 4 of Netflix Dahmer, let’s just say this is how a series on a real-life killer should be made, very well made it’s bleak and grim exactly how true stories should be to draw you in a make you feel grubby for watching, not Hollywood style and be made into some sort of blockbuster, true stories are meant to make you feel disturbed at what they did and this is exactly what the series is doing.

Just watched first episode and it was very disturbing and unnerving.
