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.

A wonderful show for kids having lots of good acting, storyline plots, great music and enough fantasy mystery to keep them interested.
What struck me most was how unbelievably good Kaileen Angelic Chang (Carmie) was able to sing, act and move. She has so much grace and charisma at such a young age and the right choice as the lead.
At 26-27 minutes runtime per episode, it still packs enough punch, momentum and vibe to keep you interested, crave for more and to see what's next.

I know it meant for young teens ages 10 - 14 probably but it's not even fun to watch as someone who is in that age group. I like the idea of the show, the whole blendeds with mythics ect. But the acting is really bad. I honestly feel bad saying this because I'm sure all these people were just trying to start making a name for themselves which I totally get. But the acting is really bland with no emotion or super extra with to much movement no in between. I guess it better than having all the actors be bad with is one super amazing actor. All I can say is whoever wrote and cast this needs to do better and the actors need just a bit of help making whatever they're in enjoyable to watch.
The actors and script are pretty terrible. However, I watched the whole series because the story itself is interesting. I like the idea of Blendeds and Mythics. I was interested to see where they go with it. Unfortunately, not that far. The script and acting leave a lot to be desired. Some of the choices for the actors were laughable as well. The comic store owner is awful, as is the main villain. And don't even get me started on the twins. I do like the main kids, though. I think they have potential. I don't know if we'll get another season, but the story was interesting enough to warrant it, if they can improve the writing.
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.
