Les secrets de Sulphur Springs

So I was sat at home, bored. My kid was off doing whatever it is kids do when they're in their rooms. I was lazily flicking through Disney+ and spotted this show. I thought, "That'll do for the afternoon."

So there I was, a 42 year old flabby man watching a mystery show for kids... And it hooked me. The first coup of episodes drew me and I really wanted to know what happened to the missing girl and what the adults knew.

The kids in this show are all fantastic, they play their roles incredibly well. The core mystery is interesting and it turns and twists well through the whole show. It's paced incredibly well, with each episode only being around 20 minutes once intro and recaps etc are done.

All in all a fantastic show that keeps the intrigue up, the pace held and turns interesting and surprising.

Well worth a watch for adults... And kids too.

My kids made me watch this, so I wasn't expecting much from a Disney channel pilot. But we all are really excited for the next episode. From the storyline, to the acting, this show so far is better than anything they've ever put out. We were all on the edge of our seats waiting for what would happen next.

We started watching it n my daughter didn't like it after 5 minutes n left the room she came back in room on episode 4 n then she loved it we finished season 1 in a couple days n started watching it again right before season 2 came out then we started watching season 2 n finished it in 2 days!

I have a younger teen daughter and when she was a child we enjoyed watching Disney shows like "Good Luck Charlie", "Shake It Up", and "Wizards of Waverly Place". I always loved watching Disney with her because it brought back the nostalgia of my childhood watching The Famous Jett Jackson, Fastforward, and Even Stevens. However, we both agree that they don't make them like that anymore. Until Secrets of Sulpher Springs. It reminds me of those "quality" Disney shows we remember from back in the day where the story was family oriented but engaging across the age span. This show was creepy and mysterious enough to keep you interested, but not so scary to deter younger children. Even my 38 year-old husband got into the series and got annoyed when we watched an episode without him and Insisted we rewind it. The plot and acting were fairly good for a Disney show. Not likely to win any awards or make it to the big screen, but it's good for what it is. Surprisingly, the children's acting is far superior to the adults' acting. Hopefully there is a season 2 coming soon.

Secrets of Sulphur Springs is a mystery series that follows 12-year-old Griffin Campbell and his thrill-seeking friend, Harper as they uncover a secret portal that leads them to uncover clues in order to solve their town's biggest unsolved mystery and save a past child from going missing, never to be seen again.

When I first saw the trailer, which advertised the series as horror films, I did not plan to watch the films, but after reading several reviews and summaries, I decided to try the series, although still hesitant.

I have now seen the first six episodes and love the series! Each scene is full of suspense and action and the sets and effects are amazing! The acting is outstanding and the episodes are never boring. I did not, however, find this series to fit under the horror category. I am personally more sensitive to scary and horrorous films and did not find this series frightening. I would recommend for kids under the age of eight to watch with a trusted adult or family member, since there were a few scenes and concepts that could be scary for younger viewers.

Secrets of Sulphur Springs is rated PG for mild scares and concepts that may frighten younger viewers. In the episodes I have seen (Episodes 1-6) there hasn't been any inappropriate language or violence.

The show is chilling, mysterious, family friendly, and very different from most of the Disney Channel shows. It features impressive effects, great acting, and suspenseful time travel scenes. I recommend this series and am looking forward to the next episode!
