Die Erben der Nacht

Lots of plot holes and wtf moments but if you're like me and look at your phone while watching TV, you won't find yourself missing much here when you look back up

I´ve watched both seasons. It´s a nicely done european series shot in hollywood quality.

However it´s only loosely based on the books. The story is about ok.

What annoyed me since the middle of the first season is the fact that the protagonist is the chosen one. If there is any problem you just immediately know she is going to solve the situation without failing.

This series obviously aims on a young audience (maybe 12 - 19y old?) and as such it's decent enough. The atmosphere is rather good, the acting is not great but ah well (a bit overdramatic, feels more like a stage play) but it lacks tension. If this series was made for an older public I'd say it fails and give it 3 stars. As it is, for youngsters, its good enough for 6 points.

Just relax and enjoy this kids' series. u r not watching to see if this will be included in any awards show. just curious what story is about. good old vampire story with a different twist.

It is always a regret when those who wish to criticise, especially in an ignorant way (compare budgets between their comparisons for example), and are not bothered to read the IMDB page despite having to come to it to moan. This is a Dutch/Norwegian/German co-production and from the opening it is obvious, to those paying attention, that this is a young adult series (shown on Children's BBC - CBBC!!!!!!!!) which has had a large budget thrown at it. There are a lot of characters to get to grips with (that wasn't a problem in Game of Thrones) and the story moves along at a nice pace. The script and acting could be better but remember who the audience is. An engaging series well worth a watch. The background music can be irritating at times.

As an aside I wonder how it was shot e.g. for Norsemen on Netflix each scene was shot concurrently in Norwegian then in English.
