Hi.. Im a reptile fan, and in less than a minute into the series the village gets attack by snakes, that kills the lot of them. Me, who knows snakes can see that they dont have even ONE harmful snake ! All of them are less dangeorus than a house cat ! Its only pytons that cant do any harm, to any person.. I just had to turn it off right away...
... View MoreUnlike many shows - including Supernatural - there's an actual story, backplot and development here right from the start. Yes, there are a mixture of themes, including Victoriana / verging on Steam Punk, elements of Warehouse 13 and nods in various directions.For me that adds to the establishment of authenticity, which is carried over in the writing. Far from being bad acting / narrative (see the early episodes of Mortal Instruments and Shanara - both of which were pretty terrible), there is a slant on this that, if allowed to develop could easily mature in to a clever, witty and developed set of stories. For the most part the acting and direction are great - if a little different from the 'norm'.In some ways it reminds me of good tv programmes from the 60's and 70's, where time and effort had to be put into the narrative simply because of technical limitations.Of course, if the unimaginative can't grasp the theatricality of it, then I don't suppose it will get renewed, which would be a real shame, as with the right writing and a bit of enthusiasm on the part of the channel, it could become very interesting. But what do I know, I stuck with it and enjoyed it and would be very happy for more.
