I thought it was another pretty good one story wise. Though I am finding myself not particularly invested in the Theo/Isildur/Arondir storyline. I think some of is that they keep putting Isildur in trouble but we know he survives. And I can't say I've ever cared too much about Theo or the new lady from this season.
The stranger arc seems to be pretty good. Though if he does end up being Gandalf that might just be a "no thanks, I'm out" moment for me.
The Elrond/Galadriel arc seems good for me as well. While many of the actions/motivations may still be out of character in terms of Tolkiens writing, I feel I can at least get behind them compared to the first season.
There were no dwarf, Numenor or Celebrimbor/Annatar scenes at all in episode 4 were there? I do feel like they have too many storylines to keep going at this point.
