The Witch

I Magissa (The Witch) is an absolute gem of a series that deserves so much more recognition. As a Greek living abroad (in Austria), I watch it on ANT1's website, and it has completely captivated me.

Season 1 was fantastic, setting the stage with its compelling storyline and vivid depiction of the 1800s. But Season 2? It's on another level. It's darker, richer, and even more engaging. The atmosphere is drenched in the magic and mystique of the era, pulling you into a world that feels both real and otherworldly.

The show masterfully blends historical elements with drama, intrigue, and just the right touch of supernatural allure. The production quality, costumes, and cinematography are top-notch, bringing the 18th century to life in a way that feels authentic and magical.

If you're looking for a gripping, underrated series that combines history, fantasy, and drama, I Magissa is it. I love this show and can't wait to see where it takes us next! Highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates well-crafted storytelling.

Very good series. Have great story and the actors play very good. Love music, songs, photography and directing. I will definitely put the serial on the top greek series ever made.

Who is behind the disappearance of the infant?

Families are up in arms and searching everywhere.

With the first light of the dawn, the young servant of the Laskaras, Theofano, will be led by a vision to the banks of the Arna river...

What has happened; What will come to light and reveal well-hidden secrets from the past that may lead to conflict?

A unique in concept tv series in Greek TV history with a historical background situated in Mani in 1817 a few years before the Greek national uprising against the Ottoman rulers. The story is between two families that struggle to overcome their internal problems and in the same time struggle to maintain their leading position (Laskaris clan) or gain status (Gerakaris clan). They are tied together in a fragile marriage and a well hidden fate that will unveil to them as events happen. Mystery,drama,power struggle set a unique plot.

The characters are very interesting and well designed to give a spice to the plot. They are smart, ruthless, reckless, pationate , vengeful .ambitious and in some way resemple the strengths and weakenesses of Olympian gods.

Just a perfect series!!! The best Greek series of all time!! The plot is perfect, the series has an all star cast and the acting is amazing in every episode. I also absolutely love the metaphysical element in the series. It is the only Greek series that has achieved this and the scenes are creepy. The Witch ( Elli Tringou ) NAILED the role so did everyone!!! The soundtrack is INCREDIBLE AND AMAZING. Omg !! The song called "XRHSAFI" is one of my favorite songs ever !! Just incredible The opening credits are by far my favorite! Of any show ever!! Really well done to EVERYONE who has worked on this series. This show has to be on netflix and gain global recognition!!!

I Magissa (or The Witch) is one of the best tv shows I have ever watched!! It's so good!!! Firstly, the plot is sooo interesting and now that Season 2 and 3 have been announced (as this is going to be a trilogy) I'm so excited to see what's coming next in this AMAZING story!!! The acting is phenomenal !!! The soundtrack is literally amazing . The supernatural scenes are well filmed and directed!! Not to spoil anything for the finale of season 1, but I don't understand why people hate it so much. IT WAS AMAZING. Anyways, a new season starring Maria Kitsou is coming this October and I couldn't been more excited !!!
