    This is such a great show. MTV have really picked up their games when it comes to their TV shows. Both Teen wolf and The Shannara Chronicles are written and produced in a way that leaves you wanting more. there is never an episode that isn't produced to the best. This is one show that should not be missed. Absolute legends

    I loved this series, its not perfect but its a great start and I hope they continue to improve upon everything with every episode. Too many shows are cancelled far too often without giving them enough time and exposure. I was happy to hear they ordered a second series :-)

    A bit glam for fantasy but the soap opera looking cast has grown on me and is surprisingly likable.

    Fantasy? Sold! It is a bit of fantasy soap opera though and could be better.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not terrible. I just have one question, and maybe this was actually in the book and the series completely failed to address it... Why did any of this need to take place? Amberle is the seed. She was in the tree in the first couple episodes. Game over. But instead, the tree sent her to San Francisco (the whole season) to tell her to go back into the tree where she started. Nothing changed. The didn't bring anything back. It was all unnecessary. Right??? Should be called: Pointless Journey or Wasted Road Trip.… Expand

However, if you're a true fan of the novels you will be highly disappointed. In fact, I couldn't bring myself to finish watching the first episode. Yes, the new earth is something that was created after we blew ourselves to pieces, however, no where does it say in the books that there are rotting car parts everywhere, (only once in my recollection do they visit the old cities of stone.) This was an adaptation of the Elfstones of Shannara, Amberle was a frightened young woman, scared of the elcrys and the message it gave her, running away shamed her royal family and caused a rift between the two kings sons. I realize this is the age of the empowered woman, however not every story has to portray as such, it's the journey to ascend over top your fears that's the real triumph of this novel. I give this show a zero simply for the fact that MTV has cheapened the synopsis of the book/s and gave it a thrown together format. I'm surprised that Terry Brooks agreed to such a fiasco as this. As I said, you may disagree but that probably means you didn't read the book/s.… Expand

One of my guilty pleasures is the Teen Wolf program...young, beautiful people saving the world...one supernatural catastrophe at a time. More fluff than real drama, the show belongs on MTV or the CW network. It is certainly not a show that would be considered for A&E or the like. Shanarra is like that.

    Shannara takes a classic dystopian-future/fantasy novel and waters it down with rushed story-telling and actors and actresses that look like they stepped out of a Forever 21 ad. Every stereotype from modern teen dystopian fiction is present.

    That being said, the production value is amazing! The CG is top notch for television. The main actor (Austin Butler) is not horrible. The casting of Manu Bennett as Allanon is surprisingly good. The actresses are expectedly plucky and do well at fulfilling their roles as modern teen-woman tropes.

    It's like cotton candy...lots of fluff...not a lot of substance...somewhat fun while it lasts...but you might regret it if you consider it too much later.    … Expand

My wife gave it up after episode 1, but I forced myself to stand fast and continue on.

    Unfortunately, this show barely follows the actual book series, and it is blatantly written to appeal to only very young and shallow teenagers.

    This is nothing more than a cheap CW cookie-cutter show. Get hot young actors/actresses, make them really attracted to one another, but make up some stupid reason that the two are kept apart and in a constant state of sexual tensions.

    The show seems to lack any sort of real story to stand on, which is particularly baffling given that they have an actual written story to follow. The show seems to have stolen the name of the Shannara Chronicles just for name recognition.

    One of the early episodes introduced a zippo lighter in a groan-inducing moment, but I was willing to chalk this up to lazy writing for a simple ending to a scene.

    It was when the gang ran into an entire village of what are essentially the amish and it was populated by nothing more than a bunch of twenty-somethings who looked like they found a secret stash of American Eagle apparel, who then promptly threw a switch to their generator and kicked off a barn-yard rave, complete with loud music and lighting.

    To top it all off, they introduced guns into the series, and of course the cute little bandit girl is a dead-on marksman, even though she's never even heard of a gun before. And of course at the end of this episode, there's a shootout in which hand-held crossbows are treated like semi-automatic weapons and the revolvers never need to be reloaded.

    Unless you're a very young girl with fanciful delusions of love, I would highly recommend skipping this farce. Just watch any show on the CW and you'll understand the entire premise of the character relationship of this poorly written farce.    … Expand

The Elven Princess is very attractive and decent enough. I'm having a hard time liking the protagonist Will and rover girl. Will is insecure, frightened, and waaaay too cliche. The rover girl isn't believable, even when the show is throwing character growth/development at me. It is unnatural.

    Let's get back to Alanan's sword. This thing is just a handle, until the Druid wants it to be a sword. Then it turns into a sword by an impossible series of intertwined blade mechanisms (most likely magic). It is just, so cool. Also, how he scabbards it doesn't make sense but it looks sick, and what's the most important thing about a fantasy series? Looking Cool. Much like an MMORPG.

    I give it a 7 because while lacking in several areas, I will continue to watch it because they are trying very hard to bring about a Fantasy book series to Network Television. It would be a 5, but I swear to God that f**king sword is all I can think about right now. It's like the lightsaber of a fantasy story.

    As a person who's never read the books, I really like this series. The first episode was really well done, almost to a movie quality and it doesn't really run out of steam. It's a good antidote to the miserable slap that seems to be all the rage.. So watch The Shannara Chronicles when you need to unwind, it's guilty pleasure territory.

    I've changed my score from a 6 to a 3, because even though the second episode picked up a bit and felt more interesting, it goes so far downhill after that.

    The action scenes are vicious and well made, and the art department did a wonderful job, from the costumes to the set design. However, except for those two points I can't say anything redeeming about The Shannara Chronicles at all.

    The script is fairly bad, even though I get why it was modernised slightly (it's post apocalyptic after all). The acting is mostly pretty mediocre, and at times fairly bad. But those two things are the tip of this great iceberg of awfulness. The story changes are 80% pointless, stupid, and added in to cater towards teens with poor attention span, and for absolutely zero other reason. Some of the story choices, such as everyone sleeping together (including the demons!), or making the Reaper into a big dumb slow hulk are downright idiotic. They've abandoned the heart of the show to make way for cliched corny tripe, and some of the absolute best scenes and plot lines from the book have been completely butchered, or in some places taken out entirely (and I'm not talking about small plot lines). The characters all act like horny bros and clubber teens, which feels so far out of place. Moreover, some of the decisions the characters make during the first 5 episodes are so head-numbingly unrealistic and idiotic that it makes me wince.

    But worst of all is the choppy and poorly paced directing. Sure, some of the scenery shots are very nice, but the actual plot directing is abysmal. Seriously, one of the worst directed things I've ever seen. It just jumps from half-baked scene to scene without allowing the audience a chance to feel immersed or even interested. I bet somewhere in the world Mulder and Scully are investigating a coffin that's spontaneously spinning around, and in 10 or 20 years it will hold Terry Brooks. Poor guy.

He's clumsy, stupid, sarcastic (not in a good way-in an obnoxious way), and his acting range is comprised of two or three "deer in the headlights" looks.

    Well.... here goes.

    I read The Sword of Shannara some 20 years ago around the age of 14. Loved it, but didn't end up re-reading it until recently. At about the halfway mark I heard of this series, and sought it out to watch it with low expectations due to the MTV tag. Now I have watched it, and trying to get back to the second half of the book is quite difficult - especially because    Well.... here goes.

    Now I have watched it, and trying to get back to the second half of the book is quite difficult - especially because the show's portrayal of Allanon is SO different to how I pictured him in my mind. But that is quite subjective, so I can't hold it against the show. I hate to bring up "I read the book and this isn't as good", but there it is.

    More objectively - as t's been said in many reviews this is a teen angst tale of nonsense, and it's a shame that Terry Brooks is tied so closely to it yet couldn't influence it to be... good. The characters are whiny, weak, and unbelievable on the whole. I was expecting the cast to glance at the camera throughout, checking they were doing alright. Even those few who have proven themselves in big-name big-screen films struggle to excite here.

    The script contains every cliche you can think of - "Do you ever wish I was dead instead of my brother? I do, every day." Hackneyed scriptwriting of the worst degree all through. There is nothing original about this story whatsoever, and the setting of the four lands is wasted.

    The production values vary from terrible to alright. The CGI effects can be quite nice looking, but at other times (especially blood - why after all these years can they still not make blood look real??) they break the viewer's involvement in events. There is a sheen over everything, leading to a feeling of polish that doesn't fit well with the genre. A pervading hard-lighting effect attempts to hide the clearly man-made nature of the sets and cheap clothes, adding to this feeling of excessive polish and taking away from believability of the setting. Several times (especially in expositional shots involving demons dotted through the episodes) there is a distinctly 90s feel in the direction, with warping effects on the camera making it seem 20 years older than it is.

    Clearly I am not the target market for this show (odd - being a fan of the books, you'd think I'd be exactly the target audience), but I hope they scrap the whole thing and do no renew it for a second season. They need to get the message that it is possible to make something far better.    … Expand

About 60% of the show is watchable (and sometimes enjoyable/interesting) and the remaining 40% is ridiculous, awkward, rushed, unnecessary, underdeveloped & overkill. Take lessons from Lost & Walking Dead for character development, pacing and even relational/sexual interactions - those shows are much more subtle/realistic and they cause you to care about what happens to the main characters (rather than be annoyed by them).… Expand
