The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

Where: Prime Video
What: Series, 9 episodes, 60 mins.
When: Now; new episodes Thursdays
Genre: Fantasy
Why you should watch: Like a gentle cousin to the blood and lust-drenched House of the Dragon, Lord of the Rings also drops a hungrily awaited prequel, and it too delivers classic elements of its brand. Lots of wonder, romantic notions, romance (but no sex), weird and wonderful creatures, medieval-gone-mad warfare, fantastical lands — and thank gawd for the jolly li’l hobbits to leaven the scary stuff. A satisfying reboot.
