If they keep the music and set dec and costumes and dialogue style MOSTLY in line with Jackson then they theoretically reach a bigger audience.
...on the show's modeling itself on the films. If the slow pacing is probably the show's biggest detriment, then the doppleganger approach to the visuals is the one that feels most cynical, at least to the extent that it feels calculated and underhanded.
Other films and shows had done it: Raimi's excreble The Great and Powerful Oz did. In a different way it seems the new Potter show is doing the same. It always sucks as an approach.
But that's not what we're talking about at the moment: Jackson, like Tolkien in The Lord of the Rings, is very sparing with references to the Valar at all, and least of all as "gods."
