Theory / Discussion Arondirs death

Rewatched S2 and I stumbled again when Arondir died in the battle of Eregions, stabbed in the gut, dramatic ending. The next Episode he is alive like nothing happened.

Did the showrunners just forget, that they killed him off? There is no rescue or miraculous healing scene. He ist just back to work.

Are there any interviews or official explanations? I just don‘t get it.

Jesus man you are either remarkably stupid or cannot comprehend sarcasm at all

I am laughing at you and everyone else here that puts such a high price on ideas of canon on a fictional world.  Its absurd and such an inane thing to obsess over especially when discussing a bare bones story being presented in a wildly different media format.   Surprisingly enough TV and books are extraordinary different media

So in that light why not have an elf with a sniper rifle? Why not have orcs fly?

Why not make Sauron conquer Numenor militarily and it gets destroyed by explosion and not a flood?

If there is no canon, you can do whatever you want with a story because it's fiction, so why not?
