El hijo bastardo y el mismísimo diablo

Honestly, it was one of the best English language shown I have seen in recent years that come out of netflix. This and Lockwood & co. Were creative, innovative, very well made and well acted and eventually CANCELED because netflix honestly do not have any idea what their audiences want! This show had an uniquie premise, dark & gritty atmosphere matching the somber themes, with beautiful music, and well paced plot development. Except for one scene in the last episode the whole thing was water tight so it completely evades me on what could be a plausible reason to cancel the show since there is a lot of potential for a season 2. As usual netflix raising prices but giving us nothing.

This series has a good storyline, good acting, and good special effects and once you start you get dragged into the story. It's binge-watch-worthy, although I recommend not watching it in one sit, because it gets heavy sometimes. It's a 16+ series because it gets violent and very cruel. I give this series an 8,5 out of 10. It is that good, if you like fantasy, action and a good storyline this is your cup of tea. Hope season 2 is made soon. It's also price worthy of special effects for example. Netflix doesn't have good series about witches until The Bastard son and the devil himself. Thank god they finally made a good series about witches and magic because every other series with magic was meh on Netflix. Do watch The Bastard Son and the Devil himself on Netflix I recommend it 100%.

I only stumbled across this series by chance, sadly in IMDB's Cancelled Series List. Which is an utter travesty, as it one of the best, most original and bingeworthy shows I have seen in a long time. It has just about everything a horror/supernatural/fantasy fan would want, Witches, magic, gore, romance some lgbtqia+ characters and humour. It's a shame more people didn't catch this series, whether it was poor promotion or a bad time slot who knows, but I would thoroughly recommend it.

It a British made series (Always a plus) with very likable, and hatable characters. It is set in a world where magic exists, albeit in the shadows. A boy is born of a Blood and Fairborn witch couple (Nathan), and the two tribes who hate each other. His father is the most powerful Witch ever, and the fairborn want him dead, but there is a prophecy says the blood of the son will kill the father, so both sides are hunting the son, to forfil, or prevent the prophecy. All the witches have different powers, which come to fruition after a ritual on their 17th birthday, and involves the blood of a relative. Nathans 17th birthday is approaching and with out a relatives blood, he'll be in trouble. Throw in the fact that the Blood kings son falls for the leader of the fairborns councils daughter, in a classic capulets and the montagues scenerio.

Please go on and watch this, hopefully it will get picked up by another streaming service for a second series.

Created by the writer Joe Barton who also wrote the Lazarus Project, comes an 8-part series of the fantasy drama. Sunsational CGI effects, immersive backgrounds, and artistic cinematics make watching more enjoyable.

The main character is Nathan, the bastard son of a witch, a blood witch who grew up in Fairborn witch territory. Blood and Fairborn witches continuously hunt each other. Blaming each other for the blood drawn.

To be honest, this genre had been explored many times before. However, Joe Barton's version is definitely unique and very creative. He has his way of connecting multiple stories together without confusing the audience. Also, the chemistry between the main actors are clearly visible. It's a very effective fantasy-gory-drama.

There's not a lot I can add to the other positive reviews in regards to this exceptional series, just to reiterate how frustrating and annoying it would be for Netflix to cancel the show. This wonderful adaptation has taken considerable thought, skilfully combining the very well written and developed characterisation along with the actors performances mixes up a magical formula viewers will just love. Also, the plot arcs have real ' legs', in that I can't see peoples attention spans drifting nor the quality petering out any time soon. Take the above elements, add a huge pinch of triple-A special effects and the magicians (including the incredible Andy Serkis) at The Imaginarium (production company) have conjured up something truly special.
