Strike Back: Retribution: Part 1 (2017)
New Crew, still a fun show
The 2 guys from season 2-5 were hysterical and well trained in military tactics, weapon handling and trash talking. This season's actors/actresses don't have a clue there, but the show is still a fun action military genre. We will see how the season progresses. Hopefully the cast gets more training in weapons and tactics, and stop looking like the first time they handled a firearm was a week before production started. The dialogue needs to improve as well.
The Shannara Chronicles: Paranor (2017)
Departure from Terry Brooks story is complete
While Eritrea and Will were married and had children and grandchildren in the books who continued to fight the dark lord, this sitcom turns her into a lesbian and completely changes the characters and storyline of the Shannara Chronicles. Characters from later books who never co-existed are now inserted into a new narrative of the "Will does everything" story.
The acting is forced, full of teenage angst and homosexual tensions, poor fight scenes and a plot that appears to be written by a high school dropout.
The Walking Dead: Mercy (2017)
Has some aspects from the graphic novels
Obviously the sequence is off. This showdown at the Saviors place is what kicked off all out war. And no sacrifice of a female character taking the bus in. Rick with a limp and a really bad haircut in the future is close to the comics, but he still has both hands...
So it seems this whole season will have flash forwards to the time after the war, when Rick is a cripple and the community is about to have a festival.
Sad that they had to insert the politically correct Muslim into this episode. What is so hard about sticking to the script?
The Shannara Chronicles: Druid (2017)
Nothing Like Terry Brooks Shannara Chronicles books
Instead of marrying Will, Eritrea is a lesbian in this show, displaying Hollywood's desire to normalize and celebrate homosexuality by having multiple gay characters in every single show produced, despite the fact that the characters as written were never gay. They also changed the race of multiple characters, because political correctness apparently requires destroying the story. Don't waste your time watching this. The books were great, this show is pathetic.
