Mortel

It just gets better! I binged out on one day and want more. It ended up being a beautifully done show.

I just discovered this hidden on Netflix. It is not a groundbreaking television show that you must see but it is definitely worth your time. I enjoyed the mix of the superhero with the supernatural genre. It delved into some interesting complexities surrounding myths and the type of human fortitude it takes to overcome your deepest fears.

It's fun, it's captivating, and generally a great show to binge.

Three episodes in. I am really enjoying this. Being a teen supernatural show, I did not have any expectations, but the show is really good with good twists and turns. Acting is not a strong suit of the show. Also, if you like strong moral protagonists in the show, then this is not the show for you. All the characters are mostly a**h***s. Tighter screenplay and better handling of the characters would have helped immensely. All in all, a good supernatural show. Will edit later, after I finish the whole series. It is only six episodes long. Edit: Completed it. A kind of cliche ending, but still not a bad one. Revised my rating to 8.

And I loved every minute of it! Everything from the acting to the subdued use of special effects, the entire production overflowed with creativity and nuance, made by a team of people who actually cared about the story they were attempting to tell. French language programming has been hitting it out of the park lately, and I really appreciate just how many risks are being taken with these types of series. Overall, an extremely well done show that anyone with a passing interesting in good television should watch.

Highly recommended!
