Featured reviews
So I have never written a review before. I read the professional critics reviews and honestly I think most of them have forgotten how to just watch a show and enjoy it. Was it the best I've every seen no - was it entertaining yes. So if your looking for something entertaining and supernatural your thing you should check it out. I really hope Hulu reconsiders a season 2
At first I found this show ridiculous, especially the two main characters. But things become more interesting after one episodes or two. The plot is richer than I expected. Psychology discussions are rather good for a TV show. There is action, mystery. It is not about social justice or social commentary (at last!), it is about what a TV show is supposed to be: a story. Then cinematography, wardrobe, locations are interesting. Good production design. The female lead is a bit too much at times but can also be interesting at different periods. As a whole, this is a better than average show, dark, sometimes innovative.
I just finished binge watching and it got better with each episode. Easy to follow and understand. Great acting. It had a Prodigal Son/Evil feel but it is it's own show. I wish there was a season 2 following straight after because I'm excited to see the next season.
Well here's hoping for that season 2!
We need more shows like this one! If Evil can get a second season then this one deserves more. Love the premise, love the execution. Bingeworthy content that kept me interested throughout. I really hope we don't lose another promising dark / supernatural series...too many good ones have fallen before their time.
Upto Episode 5, a decent show if you are a fan of Supernatural in nature shows, such as supernatural, Evil, Constantine. It a little slow paced, and drip feeds character development which is not necessarily the best way to do it, as it feels the writers are using a lot of filler. It seems to take it self very seriously so far, which is fine if your going for horror, but it lacking in some needed lore/ exposition in a few areas for those of us that do not read comics

- TriviaDespite being based on a Marvel comic book and being a production of Marvel Television, the Marvel logo does not appear anywhere in the marketing material for the series or in the series itself. This was done is such order because Marvel Television was being integrated within Marvel Studios and was no longer a subsidiary, but rather a label company.
- GoofsThroughout the series, characters continually and incorrectly refer to Gabriella as a "novitiate". The proper term is "novice". Novitiate is the period of training that aspirants to religious orders spend in training.
