Overwhelmingly, if you're a fan of The Lord of the Rings and of J.R.R. Tolkien’s unforgettable world of Middle-earth in general, The Rings of Power Season 2 will likely feel like a treat. While Season 1 is great, it danced around some canonical events. Meanwhile, Season 2 is leaning a bit harder toward the cool stuff we want to see from the Second Age, and in doing so, is depicting characters and events from the lore of Lord of the Rings in ways that are generally more comforting and familiar than not.
