Me desperté vampira

Seems like there are quite a few complaints here about this series, probably by adults who've forgotten that it was designed to be viewed by children. My 9 year old grandson enjoyed it and never complained once about the acting or anything else. I watched along with him and the only thing I didn't like was that the second series isn't there to find out what happens next.

Acting-wise I think all did the best they could with what they had to work with, and the story does hold your interest. Granted, it's a grade B production overall, but the idea here was to make a series with likable vampires, werewolves, etc., where "bad" people actually turn out to be good. Where your assumed enemies are later transformed into friends. Lots of good lessons to learn here.

It's just bad... the idea of each characters is interesting and the story here could have been something.. but the execution is disastrous... the plot is extremely shallow even for a kids show...

It's almost like if the B-Movie genre were a tv show for kids.. was that the plan?!?

The best thing about this was probably the actual play (actually the script for that play sounds interesting)... they did get an good chuckle out of me at the end!

Netflix just announce they are increasing their pricing model again and it really makes you question what they are doing.. I suppose not everything they work on can be a winner..

I don't really get why people hate this show so much. I get that the actors weren't the best at acting, but most of them are just kids. I think it is a great show, I am thirteen years old and I think my friends would love this! I believe they should make more seasons. And for the adults who don't like this show, it's understandable because the actors are a bit awkward, but it's a very interesting and good show. Also it's made for children so you shouldn't give it such a harsh rate just because it wasn't up to your standards. I've watched all of the episodes that have came out so far, me and my mom really enjoyed it.

I Woke Up a Vampire had a chance to be an enjoyable series. The concept of a young teen becoming discovering she's a vampling - half human, half vampire - had potential much along the lines of Sabrina. Unfortunately, it falls prey (pun intended) to the worst tropes of teen TV. It has the nice but somewhat oblivious parents, the annoying yet clever siblings, the best friend who knows the secret and is the source of esoteric knowledge, a self-centered mean girl, the uber-evil villain with the somewhat moronic and put-upon henchman, and more.

The cast is diverse and the young actors are good. The cartoon-like antagonists, however, tend to munch the scenery a bit. The writing is really predicable and gives away almost every "twist" or surprise well before they happen. The writers don't seem to be able to decide whether it's a comedy, a dramedy, or a teen-drama. The effects are fairly mediocre. And, yes, the vampires glow.

As I said above Ultimately, if you miss this series, you won't miss much. It is pretty ignorable.

I enjoy vampire stuff, but i am not a young teen. So i don't know how fair my review can be as its surely aim at younger teens in the 10-15 bracket at best. That said i do watch movies aimed more at kids or "for the familly" on ocasions and they can always be fun even for me. My Babysitter is a Vampire for instance, both the show and movie, wich i watched a couple years ago, i enjoyed. The teens are a bit older but still.

The idea of this show is totally fine, but as someone put it, it would had worked better as a movie. The episodes are kinda short and its only 8 episodes, but you get the feeling that there is a lot of padding and by the time i finished the season, i had the impression of finishing episode 1 or 2 at most of a "regular show".

There was also a lot of inconsistencies in the characters, and in the first few episodes i found Carmie to.be quite unsufferable, but it got better later on.

Overall what else can i say? Its on Netflix, it does not take long to watch. If you have young kids or teens they may enjoy it fairly. Apparently a Season 2 is confirmed, so ill probably watch it even tough im not overly exited for it. But again, i am not the demographic for it so i really don't want to be too harsh on this.

Oh i almost forgot. There is a musical at some point. I don't know if the actress sang herself, but if she did, it was actually pretty good. I can praise this for sure.
