Oh boy, what the fuck was that? I mean these last episodes as a whole were a big joke to be honest, I can't believe the nosedive it took since the first 2 episodes.
Manu Bennett is wasted in the Arbalon scenes. As much as most people hate Wil/Amberle/Eretria I wish he just went along with them and just rolled his eyes every time they had a dumb plan he had to follow or something. Would make the show much more enjoyable.Deathstroke is the only worthwhile character to watch. Everyone else is terrible.
Good or bad?Live+3 ratings for Shannara (DVR) - 2.079 million

Least favorite episode so far. How many episodes are left?
It's no Game of Thrones, but I like it. It's a fun fantasy adventure with interesting concepts. Characters are a little dumb, but not a dealbreaker.
I like that there are human societies that are trying to relearn science and technology.

Just watched this week's ep. Definitely got the CW thing going on full bore here, with Will just about to bed the princess.
Let's go off and save the world? Nah, let's get laid instead.
I would. It's all about Eritrea.Who would pass up that opportunity?
Just saying, they keep throwing the love triangle into this and it's the least interesting storyline.Who would pass up that opportunity?

Not even reading the books I knew that place was show created and I'm almost certain it was so they could have that party "clubbing scene" thing.

Just seen this advertised, but guessing by the posts it is crap?

To me the biggest problem is they CWed the shit out of the book. They added drama for the sake of drama and most of the changes they made to the book has been nonsensical. Beautiful show though.
I still can't wrap my head around the fact that an EDM rave was part of a Shannara story. The production is amazing, but the writing and acting are total shit.
Thousands of starving actors and they hired people solely based on eye candy.

Do the books explain why Earth is fucked up and somehow elves and trolls showed up?
Much better than the last episode. But I can do without the love making scenes. Are they doing it just cause game of throne does? The actor that plays Allanon is bad ass. He is really good. Dat voice.
I ended up watching this whole thing last night. Kinda weird that MTV hijacked the Twitch front page and sponsored a stream just to get 3,000 people watching the pilot and a softball Terry Brooks interview. Leads me to believe they haven't been thrilled with ratings, but I guess it's hopeful that they're trying to "save" the show by attempting alternate marketing. Reception from the Twitch chat, aside from general meme spamming, was typically alright.So.. umm.. This is a thing.

Is currently playing the 2 hour series premiere.. complete with Twitch chat rocking on the side.. I'm confused as to why this is happening but.. there it is.
Oh boy, if you've never seen Manu Bennett before you need to watch Spartacus immediately. Like drop what you're doing right now and run.Much better than the last episode.

I mean I can forgive that they can either can read English (they also could read the book, so whatever, honestly) or elves still know English or whatever but literally writing out SAFEHOLD was kinda cheesy and unearned. Like it pretty much spelled "SaF Old" so I mean if you saw it and took it in it wasn't a stretch to assume someone mistranslated it but seriously.Lol when he's writing on the board with chalk, they'd make the worst jeopardy players ever. "Safe Old? We still don't get it, keep going!". Also iirc, anything from the modern age in Shannara books wasn't readable, they were just old runes?
Wait, so elves existed first, then went into hiding for thousands of years while humans did their thing. Then there was a nuclear war which ended civilization and turned some humans into gnomes and trolls and then the elves decided to come out of hiding?Trolls, Gnomes, and Dwarves are descendants of Humans that were mutated from the nuclear and chemical weapons that were used during WWIII. Elves were around before humans, but in their war with the Demons their numbers were decimated. Also, the creation of the Ellcrys took most of their magic. So they are basically humans with better senses.
