First thing first, $1 Billion Dollar budget it probably went into the CGI and sets but in my opinion they were still too clean, gave this modern fantasy show but still I don't mind that.
The thing is in this 8 hour journey the creators tried to create these puzzles pieces for when the season ends they'll fall into one place and blows people minds away.
Sadly it was not just right. They either came too late or too early the middle was filled with mediocre dialogue which did not further the story. If the plot needed dialogue to to move further it was done in a very boring way, like an interview and characters revealed everything in that particular plot otherwise it was just a mindless conversation between canon and non canon characters.
It's not bad but it's not great either.
