I honestly see where story wants to go, but unfortunately the actresses aren't able to pull thru and give the story what it needs. Its like watching a bunch of people act like they are acting instead of being that character and a part of the story. Embarrassing.
I also wish certain characters weren't over the type tv tropes. I do like the idea of black women and witches but it has been done better in AHS and Vampire Diaries. Maybe those involved should have watched those shows to learn how to act and pull thru a better performance. No reason to work so hard just for us to watch you working hard at acting.

Even if it were a soap opera or telenovela, the over-acted melodrama is cloyingly interfering. At times the dialog and interactions put it on par with YA-bordering on juvenile-programming.
It's like a repackaged new age children's series trying to wear mommy's makeup and adding in some PG/R rated themes and hallucinogens in attempt to hook some adult attention.
It might be summarized as an ALLBLACK wannabe version of Charmed, but even less "believable".
If it hadn't been for the uniqueness for the target audience and niche network, I sincerely doubt it could have survived long enough to air the first season without being kicked to the curb. Even the attempts at new age fantasy schlock fall short.

For fans of fantasy and sci-fi, this show has potential and I guess we need to see where it goes. Hopefully it will start to take itself more seriously, cast members will actually speak instead of whisper, and each episode won't end with a group of screaming girls (or witches) panicking about the situation they find themselves in, cause that's already gotten old. It's the classic tale of good verses evil, although acting on the evil side is disappointing, always dressed in black and trying way to hard to appear evil. I guess we will need to wait and see although I am not holding my breath. But if the next episode ends with a bunch of screaming girls falling all over themselves screaming and panicking i am switching off.
I am sure this appeals to a very small group of people who will overlook its flaws because the flaws are pretty glaring.
The general premise is good, some of the actors are good for an occasional 10 seconds ,in an occasional scene. But everything else is the lowest it could be.
Looking at the credits, the writers, directors, producers, actors ... most have this as their first credit. I also assume they self funded this.
So if you know what you are getting into this is fine. Don't compare it to anything else it will come off badly.
Its is filmed in close up I assume because the sets are so small. Though it looks a bit strange when they are moving to be so zoomed in.
The storylines are incredibly simplistic so don't give a lot to the actors so most of their lines are cringe.
Throw in regular pointless sex scenes because that will obviously make it better.
They do "magic" for reasons though not sure what the magic is even attempting normally.
Basically if you are not 100% in the niche you are going to resent wasting the time to read the title.

First I want to start by saying I waited until I saw a few episodes before I wrote a review. It seems like there's a lot of criticism from people who haven't given the show a chance. Which tells me they never went into it with an open mind. This is something I've never seen before, black female witches on a television streaming service, not Youtube, not some random website but an actual TV service. That's big on its own. The story is well written and the main actors are amazing. A few of the side characters are a little green but not bad, and yes some of the special effects aren't the best. HOWEVER! This is not a MARVEL TV show, you can't expect them to have that kind of budget from a network that's taking a big chance on something that's never been done. If the show is successful they'll probably get more money and that kind of stuff will improve. (Just like the first season of Shadow Hunters, those effects were sad but it was much better as the series went on.)
People should be paying attention to the writing and the acting. There are some great characters and I love the bonding between the women on this show. At its heart, it's a show about black women with some supernatural aspects. Which I love! I'm excited to see where the story takes the characters and how the villains come into play. I really hope it gets a season 2. People should actually watch the show through and not be so quick to judge based on a few minutes or the trailer and come with an open mind not looking for negatives. And remember that people can only do what they can do with the budget they have. If we don't support these kinds of shows you'll never see anything like this again!
