Wicked City

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.

Its giving Sunset Beach BTEC. The production and quality is awful. The concept is great and could have displayed the history and power of Hoodoo and Voodoo showing its art and magical effects but if anything, goes against every fact about African magick and turns it into a show that does it no justice. This is a waste of production. This is like another really bad Tyler Perry production that shouldn't even of had made it to the screen. The special effects were awful, the acting below mediocre and overall just very unnecessary. I hope in future black directors and producers do their research about their concept before going ahead and making the script.

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.

Love the show besides Jordan's character. I had to fast forward through alot of her parts because her character is soooo annoying I couldn't take it. How did they even get through filming this & not see that no one wants to constantly see & hear how she acts? It's not entertaining. If the storyline wasn't so good I would have completely stopped watching it because of that one character. It's that bad.

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.
