We started this series last night and after a slightly rough start, we're hooked on it. It's a fantasy type show where normal humans interact with mythical creatures in a time of turmoil. The mythical creatures lands are being invaded by men and they are forced to flee to lands governed by somewhat sympathetic men. Orlando Bloom (Legolas) is one fo the main characters.

One thing I will say though is that Amazon shows seem to be very well done cinematically. Between this and the other shows I watch from them, they are always very pleasing to my eye. This series in particular really seems to push HDR to the edges - both in brightness and in shadow detail.

It’s been in my queue for quite some time now. Perhaps after we finish Season 3 of Ozark.

So like tomorrow afternoon, probably.

We're about 4 episodes into the new season and it's decent. Not over the top good or anything but good enough to keep watching.

I just finished it, was good but I think the first season was better. Can't wait for 3rd season.
