I have felt that season 2 has been much better in terms of storytelling. I think their big problem is just that they have went off canon for so many things that die hard fans just won't let them off the hook. So they continue to complain loudly. But as a random fantasy story I think this would be pretty good TV.
Aside from the stranger arc. At this point I wonder if the series would be better without it. I was actually reading an article that said no matter who the stranger ends up being, they have already screwed it up. If it is Gandalf fans will be like, 'no sh#t' and be totally unsurprised and unimpressed. If it ends up not being Gandalf fans will feel alienated that they were led to believe it was him with so many clues.
