The best thing about the show was the demon sex scene between the Dagda Mor and the Changeling. Worse than any of the new Star Wars. Worse than the Hobbit trilogy. Damn shame considering Shannara is one of the big dogs in High Fantasy/Medieval series. But this...MTV could not have done a worse job if they tried. The script was terrible and they turned Allanon into a Latino looking pretty boy wannabe B grade version of Jason Mamoa... with some funky way too cyberpunk hairstyle. And purple robes. They made the entire wardrobe way too cyberpunk and the sets were way too techy and just wrong. The atmosphere needed more darkness and more of rebirth feel to it. They made the four lands too pretty. Post apocalyptic reborn Earth remember guys? Come on now! The acting was wooden. The unnecessary love triangle in Arborlorn and the butchering of the characters of the book. I get Elfstones was a trendy pick because of all the drama and the female characters fighting over Wil (Nothing compared to First King or Sword or Heritage's battles but I digress) but Sword would have made a much better foray into the world. Or if you wanted to put a heroine out there to compete with the Mother of Dragons and the Black Widows of the world why not start with the Voyage of Jerle Shannara and do Grianne's story. Deserves 0 stars... They were lazy, incompetent, and disrespectful to one of the greatest fantasy series of all time and one of the most hardcore fan bases. And I hope that this beautiful series gets a second chance and better representation. If Shannara Chronicles is the only thing history has of Shannara on screen then that's a sad and deprived world.
