Forbes put out an article all about the declining numbers for season two which I will be more then to happy private message you about. There are articles all about how the show does disrespect Tolkien and how the makers of the show hate him and while yes you are right adding in more stories to an already established world can be a good thing for something like The Lord Of The Rings where both the world and the lore are so rich in the first place you do have to take extra care just due to how well liked all of the books are in the first place.

that article is spot on. This series and season is an absolute disaster. I dont even know where to start. From too many timelines added too an already confusing, all over the place timeline. The poor acting, writing, zero depth, I can go on and on. This some sort of LOTR “frankenstein” patched up. The only thing they forgot to mention in that artickle are how HORRIBLE the costumes and set are. cotton armor? Foam weapons, the poor hobbits with olives and branches in their hair. Even the orcs look like cheap party city halloween costumes. I know we are all entitled to our own opinion, granted im beyond puzzled how anyone can say this is the “greatest series they have ever seen”. This is an absolute mess. J.R.R. Tolkien is rolling in his grave
