NOS4A2

All questions, but my biggest one is why does the mom and daughter look like the same age. In real life there is an 11 year difference in their age. They didn't do a good job with that particular casting, but other than that it's ok so far.

I honestly tried, gave it a more than half the episodes but sadly just weren't my thing, I saw the trailer a while back and was interested but something about the show really didn't capture me. Honestly glad to see there are people that enjoy it, and hope it lives up to your expectations. Looking over the reviews it seems one those shows you'll either really get into or just wont. Hope that helps, But on a more technically side I did like the way it was filmed, maybe I might come back maybe not, wait and see.

It's an interesting story-line, and Zachary Quinto is doing an excellent job portraying his character, especially when he transitions between the various age ranges that Charlie Manx occupies. But the female lead, Ashleigh Cummings playing Vic McQueen, is completely miscast. She's a 28 year old woman playing a teenager! If that wasn't bad enough, the actress they got to play her mother, Virginia Kull playing Linda McQueen, is 39 years old, and she doesn't look like her mother, but like her sister. Then they gave Vic McQueen an old-fashioned hairstyle, she looks like Adrienne Barbeau straight out of Maude from 1972! The character looks closer to her mother's age, than an 18 year old teenager. It's completely distracting, it's hard to suspend your disbelief, everytime you see the character you can't believe that she's a teenager.

I read the book, but like any other book-to-big screen adaptation, I didn't expect it to be just like the book. NOS4A2 is my favorite horror story and Joe Hill is one of my all time favorite authors. The show is definitely different, but still extremely interesting. I highly recommend giving the show and the book a try.

Oddball elderly 'vampire' Charlie Manx kidnaps and feeds on children, only to be bothered by young woman Vic McQueen and her strange supernatural gift for finding lost things.

The first episode is intriguing and good at setting the story with a creepy Christmas Land opening. It has interesting supernatural lore and cool terminology, Strong Creatives, Inscapes, etc, and I love the use of the Rolls Royce Wraith and Vic's bike as more than just 'vehicles' in the normal sense.

It reminded me a lot of Stephen King, I found out afterwards it was based on the 2013 novel of the same name by his son Joe Hill.

Season 1 didn't end on a cliff-hanger as such, but I feel there is more story to tell.
