Having finally finished watching the whole season, what makes me the most happy is the fact that the authors devoted an entire half an episode to planting seeds. They will, after all, be needed to renew and heal Middle-Earth. But there is nothing like ending a season on a happy note.
I guess everyone was happy to see that Arondir and Bronwyn finally got to plant their seeds. But so did Galadriel and Sauron! Now I am waiting for the second season because the remaining characters also need to plant their seeds.
I am glad that in contrast to many grimdark TV shows, RoP decided to take the route of positivity. Even the land of Uruk-Gardens, formerly Southlands, is a promise of hope with its Middle-Earth-wide production of alfirin.
Of course there is the unresolved threat of Isildur-turned-Nazgūl secretly digging new tunnels underneath it all, too greedily and way too deep. But hey, I understand that you need to have a villain.
