For all its big ideas, The Rings of Power's first season felt more like a preamble - a promise of adventure to come, rather than a true starting point.
Following that bombshell, Season 2 hits the ground running to deliver what its first was missing: a true villain to root against.
The series flirts with some real eldritch horror here as it reveals Sauron's true form, a festering mass of Venom-like goo.
Season 2 is essentially Sauron's show. It retraces the story from his perspective, following his first attempt to 'heal' Middle-earth.
