Dead Boy Detectives

I stumbled on this show entirely by accident, having not seen any marketing for it at all. Which is a shame because it's a great show.

The acting is first-class - a rewatch had me noticing small nuances I missed the first time round. The plot doesn't drag, it has a slight element of 'monster of the week' keeping it fresh though there is an overarching plot. Even costume and set design are amazing.

Even though it's a Sandman spin-off, it's entirely it's own beast and I know nothing about the Sandman yet still followed everything in this show. Perhaps if you watched the other show you'll pick up on additional things but it's definitely nit a requirement.

A fun show, with great acting that deserved more promotion than it got.

I loved this show but it sucks to know that I barely knew about it less than 5 months ago when the teaser trailer came out on youtube. I hope this show will get more steam and hope people will want to watch it. Because I thought it was scary and funny at the same time. Neil Gaiman and Netflix make a great team. The humor and the music in this show really made a true show.

I also did not realize that the actress from another paranormal show called Supernatural was it this show. It was good to see Ruth Connell in this show. I thought her character was a clever one. She played it so well.

I hope this show gets another season because it was spooky and funny at the same time. And I loved the music also.

Please omg this show is so refreshing, like I don't usually write review for any show BUT damn whoever made this is a genius. It's so fresh and fast, there's no boring moment. I hope there will be a season 2 cause I am genuinely attached to the characters I wanna see more of it.

I not just need season 2, we need more than 2 seasons cause it has so much potential to be a proper detective series. I love the acting I love how every guy is handsome/cute in this show as well as women are gorgeous. I really hope they continue the series cause I'm hooked and already excited to see the characters again.

The show is fun, I love the special effects, I love the characters.

It's gory and campy in just the right amounts for me. The soundtrack is nice.

It has Ruth Connell.

The first episode didn't catch me, but after the second I couldn't stop watching. I binged the show in two days.

It's not perfect at all, but it's not claiming to be and it's an overall great experience and definitely worth a watch (or three in my case).

I hope there's going to be more because I want to know what happens next. I want to see all the relationships unfold and develop, because that's a thing the show does, there's so much interpersonal development going on.

If you like supernatural themes, ghosts and witches and you're into quirky and diverse characters then this is the right show for you.

Dead Boy Detectives is a decently fast-paced show with lots of well written characters and a great storyline.

It is set in The Sandman universe, but how exactly it fits within the timeline, I am not sure.

It has been a while since I watched The Sandman though.

This show has everything I would want from entertainment. Supernatural creatures, Ghosts, Witches and Mediums? I'm in. There is queer representation? Not only that, the queerness isn't ignored, the butt of a joke, but just another way of being? Take all my money.

After rewatching it for several times, you really start to notice all the little details that everyone involved put into this masterpiece. The acting is very good, the costume department went above and beyond and the set designs?? Gorgeous.

Everything has it ups and downs ofcourse, which is why I gave it a 9/10 instead of a 10/10. There is always room for improvement.

Without delving too far into spoiler territory, everything hell related could have been... stretched out more? I would have loved it if we got to see more of hell and all it entails for 2 episodes instead of just 1.

This brilliant show truly deserves all the attention it's getting. I absolutely love it, and would love it even more if we get to see even more of the Agency and their adventures!
