Sigh... why would they make 3 seasons of a book that one reads in a few
days? It will only be like the Hobbit a long and tedious wait between
actual scenes from the book. =(

I was mostly irate at the movie version of Lord of the Rings since one
of the scenes they filmed but left on the cutting room floor was the
death of Saruman (who a lot of people considered a rip-off of the
death of Mussolini) after the fall of the Dark Tower.
 No question it was my favorite LoTR scene though the "Speak Friend and
Enter" scene was the funniest from the books.

You can see the scene in the Extended Edition, integrated in its proper
place (in the movie chronology, not the book's).
I do recommend the Extended Edition. And disrecommend *any* version
of the Hobbit trilogy.
