I definitely enjoyed the finale, although the editing in that battle between the Harfoots and the 3 witches was a bit messy. A bit concerned at some of the plot holes that have seemingly been created by the big reveal. I’d think to think this twist was their plan all along though, and there is an explanation for Halbrand’s actions earlier in the season- or do we just chalk it up to Halbrand did everything he did to lead to the forging of the rings?

And for those more familiar with the history of things, can Saruman and Radagast definitively be ruled out as the true identity of the wizard? The too obvious suggestion that it is Gandalf has me wondering if a twist is yet to come and it ends up being one of the other two? Although Saruman’s FOTR line of “your love of the half-lings” doesn’t support this, and Radagast seems to only love animals?

Anyway, love the series. Here comes a probable 1-2 year wait though.

That last scene with him was the clincher, it's definitely Gandalf unless they are really trying to mislead. Every sentence he said was Gandalf-like. Watch it again with that in mind.
