The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself

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.

This was so good. Netflix doesn't like spending money on promo for projects they don't think will do well, so I didn't know this show existed until it came up in my recommended randomly. Don't write it off by first appearance. Keep in mind that most of Netflix's best shows and movies are the ones that Netflix don't care about to begin with. Y'all, it's reallyyyy good. Like, it actually blew my expectations out of the freaking water. Best thing about the show? The complex characters, of course. The found family aspect was so heartwarming as well. The story is interesting and nuanced. I don't remember the last time Netflix did something that impressed me quite like this did. Don't let it get cancelled without giving it a chance.

What a gem!!! I have no clue why there isn't more noise about it. Binged it in a weekend and will be recommending it to everyone! The acting is superb, the premise immediately engaging and the characters interesting. It also did what Amazon's big budget fantasy shows failed to do: entertain!!!

I'd recommend it to people looking for a fantasy adventure. It's nothing high brow, but let's be honest - that's exactly what you need on a late Saturday evening!!

There is some gore so it's definitely not for the squeemish but it's not at HBO levels.

Netflix please please please give us more of this!

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.

I noticed there is quite a lot of Netflix series that get very cringe-wokey so I always approach with caution. This isn't that, this turned out to be an awesome binge watch. I haven't read the books so after I finished the season I did have a little wiki read and I know they changed things around. Doesn't annoy me because I haven't read the trilogy. So from a perspective of someone who never heard of this series I loved it. Very brutal and the British vibe gives it that gritty edge that American productions always lack.. All that aside I did think the characters were well developed for a fantasy series of this type. Once I watched the first episode I couldn't stop. Can't wait for the second series!
