My unpopular internet opinion is that RoP Season 1 was actually pretty good, so if they stay on that path with season 2 I have little to complain about.

"An unsettling number of folks break into song" is a weird criticism for a Tolkien-based series. If anything, that was something the LOTR movies lacked.

I really liked season 1, so I'm looking forward to the second

I generally agree. I think RoP S01 had some issues though, so I don't think it was pretty good, but I'm looking forward to the second season.

I agree about the singing thing too. It builds mythology and culture in the series, which is good.
