Amazon's new TV series The Rings of Power is a bit controversial for some. There are vocal groups concerned showrunners J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay won't make every effort to ensure this show is in line with J.R.R. Tolkien's collected works and may add things Tolkien wouldn't approve of. For many Tolkien fans, this is a song we've heard before. There have been doubts cast on every modern Tolkien story brought to screen, including Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings movies. While every episode of The Rings of Power is going to have a recap article courtesy of CNET's own Erin Carson, this article will be dedicated entirely to the analysis of how well each episode sticks to what Tolkien wrote.
