I have seen the show. The costumes are the very least of their worries...

I think the most memorable moment for me was when Peter Mullan appeared on screen as an old dwarf king. And in that moment everybody else in the show was immediately identified as being merely an actor rather than a character.

I think it had some good scenes, but I've already come to accept that I'm in the minority of people who didn't mind the show overall. It definitely had a lot of problems I had to overlook and I almost stopped after the third episode it was so slow in the beginning, but by the end, I was feeling forgiving for some reason. The dwarf scenes helped a lot for sure.

I like it, don't care if internet groups don't, it was decent.

I also liked it. I enjoyed it more than the hobbit movies.

That's kind of a low bar though. They stretched out the Hobbit like butter over too much bread.
