I saw this earlier and, I joke you not, at first thought it said "Young Sheldon," so I guess the correct name was a bit of a let down, considering the curious alternative I hallucinated.

But I suppose it's the kind of thing we should expect.
Also - I'll be intrigued to see whether they continue to follow the ring verse season by season... for example, maybe season 2 will be about the 7 rings for the Dwarf Lords. And then Season 3 (which I've long predicted will be about the downfall of Numenor) to be about the rings of men.
Then in Season 4, Sauron makes the one?
Season 5 is the epic war of the last alliance?
I'm excited either way.

Shelob was already established in Mordor before Sauron established Barad-dur. Considering the apparent ease with which the Numenoreans crossed over the Ephel Duath into Mordor through what seems to be the show's equivalent of the Morgul Vale, I would assume that Shelob would eventually need to be introduced as a reason for the pass becoming inaccessible except as a fortified bottleneck.
I hope that her role will be minor. We don't have many supporting characters in Mordor, and will probably lose even more after Sauron disposes of Adar. Shelob will probably feature in her role as Sauron's "cat".

I suppose it's just about possible that Adar could end up as spider food? I'm kind of hoping not.

That would be a clean solution to that character. I'd miss that character, but since the actor changed for season 2, I'm doubtful I'll be as attached to that persona as I was in season 1.

It seems to me that you have a perfect explanation. Shelob introduced as a link to LOTR (we know that she's in Middle Earth), she escaped from the ruin of Beleriand into the Blue Mountains and Lindon, and she's the reason for the darkness leeching into the tree there (we haven't seen it anywhere else have we?)
Sauron knew this and used it as his ruse to create the rings. Becomes his 'cat', and sets up in the mountains of shadow. There you have an origin story with a purpose.

That works a lot better than a silly Mordor cameo.

More Rumors and Reveals from FoF
[In reply to]

Fellowship of Fans continues The Second Age Show. I'll include sources if any are provided:
1. EXCL: Galadriel will get captured by Adar and the Orcs at some point in The Rings of Power Season 2.
2. EXCL: Actors Benjamin Walker (Gil-galad), Charles Edwards (Celebrimbor), Robert Aramayo (Elrond) and Selina Lo have spent a lot of time on the Eregion/Elven sets at Bray Studios. There is some speculation in the stream that Lo's character (Mirdania?) might be another warrior-woman, perhaps another Elf.

More news and rumors from Fellowship of Fans. As usual, it's hard to tell which is which!
1. (03:05): EXCL: A new actor will play the "Original Form Sauron" Character [Mairon?]
in the later episodes of The Rings of Power Season 2, not Charlie Vickers.
2. (07:30): EXCL: This character has been described as "Angelic" and "beautiful"
in his design with a black and gold costume colour palette and long black hair.
3. (21:30): EXCL: Charlie Vickers (Halbrand) has spent most of his time on the
Mordor sets and is clean shaven but his character design and makeup has a
"fiery" and "ashy" look to it.
4. (30:15): EXCL: Costume designer Luca Mosca who joined midway through
season 1 is the main costume designer for The Rings of Power season 2.
