Never rated anything this high right out the gate after only 2 episodes.. I feel this is one of the best done series i've seen in a while. I'm talking filming, editing, etc. We'll see how well eveything else goes as it progresses. I watched the original Swedish film many years ago and while I've never read the book ( so that doesn't cloud my judgement) I loved the 2008 film and so far I'm really liking this. I love Demian Bishir he is excellent in this the only thing is the relationship with Elenor and Isah makes the entire story and I feel the actor playing the boy doesn't doesn't have the skill for the part. Also on a side note why does the mother constantly berate her son in one scene tells him to take off the blazer/jacket it will make him a target?!? I understand the kid's bullied but her and her detective make derogatory comments about him? She seems to make him feel worse about himself? Any ways I'm going to have to rewatch last night episode because I started it a 4am and fell asleep half way thru. So far I am really liking this! I hope all 10 episodes live up to the first 2!

Both the original Swedish and its American counterpart borrow the Stephen King theme of making the horrors of adolescence into real monsters. The lead characters, Oskar and Ellie, are latchkey kids in a dismal blue collar town. Oskar lives and unhappy life of being bullied at school and making his own dinner alone at night. Ellie spends all her life looking out a window and hoping for a friend. They cure their loneliness by befriending each other.

The book on which the movies is based is much more horrifying that either movie suggests. The relationship between Ellie (or Abby) and her father is not wholesome. Ellie's history is truly brutal. The ending is more graphic and gothic than hopeful.

Each movie gets further from the original novel.

So far, the series follows the path taken by the movies. It doesn't ask why. It doesn't care why. Instead, it wants to cure Ellie, when those of us who saw the movie know that Ellie doesn't want a cure.

Whether or not the search of the "original" monster can sustain the series yet, I can't tell. It seems to meander, has way too many characters, and so far does little to develop the two principal characters. Since they are the heart of both the book and the films, that may be a problem as time goes on.

Still, given the current state of drek when it comes to originality in Hollywood, I would rather watch the remake of remake of the film version of a novel than about 90% of programming.

The actors are good. The story is interesting. And i hope the show continues to expand the story.

Let's give it a chance.

After 'The Passage', a too brilliant series, another super bright and full of potential show bites the dust due to the incommensurable dinosaur-brain quality of the related Network's executives who just lick at the Viewers-Cash_Performance chart.

'Let the Right One In' is so superb, so enthralling, so well-acted that most viewers are aghast and in shock at the cancellation.

I enjoyed it tremendously, loved the screenplay and plots, the cute, emotional and tender friendship between the two teenagers, the atmosphere and pace of the show and above all, the more than marvelous acting of Madison Taylor Baez who at such tender age, is already a force to reckon with. Loved her serious, powerful and very charismatic play.

One of the better ending to date, opening new horizons, just wasted.

What idiot cancelled this show? It is clearly a good show regardless of whether it lives up to the movie it was based on. The acting is good and the characters pull you right into the narrative.

I binged watched this show, finishing the entire first season in a couple of days. I enjoyed the build up. I just don't understand how the executives that cancelled this show couldn't see the value in it. How could a show liek Webdreams last three years and they cancel this show in its first season? Who hires these executives that makes clearly bad decisions?

Please stop promoting reality shows while you cancel clearly good dramas.

Well I just now read it's been canceled!

I'm not happy. I looked forward every Friday to watching it! It was such a great series. I liked it so much more than the movie. Very disappointed!!!

I wish another streaming channel would pick it up. Too many of the shows today are canceled after just one season. I read also that American Giglio was cancelled. Now Showtime and Paramount plus are combining. Everything is combining and then they cancel so many of our shows. Many shows in the CW were cancelled also. Very very disappointed in their decision to do away with this series. It was such a good show.
