Heirs of the Night

This series obviously aims on a young audience (maybe 12 - 19y old?) and as such it's decent enough. The atmosphere is rather good, the acting is not great but ah well (a bit overdramatic, feels more like a stage play) but it lacks tension. If this series was made for an older public I'd say it fails and give it 3 stars. As it is, for youngsters, its good enough for 6 points.

I´ve watched both seasons. It´s a nicely done european series shot in hollywood quality.

However it´s only loosely based on the books. The story is about ok.

What annoyed me since the middle of the first season is the fact that the protagonist is the chosen one. If there is any problem you just immediately know she is going to solve the situation without failing.

I want to like this show, but the writing is just awful. The characters display no intelligence, even ones who should be ancient and wise. They have no sense of urgency for things that should be very urgent. Obvious solutions to presented problems are completely ignored. Climaxes are poorly written and structured. This series is one glaring series of "why didn't they just do X, Y, or Z". It's like the show was written by a high schooler. I would love to see this show written again and done properly, but the form we are presented with is nothing better than a mediocre way to kill time.

Just relax and enjoy this kids' series. u r not watching to see if this will be included in any awards show. just curious what story is about. good old vampire story with a different twist.

I don't really get the other reviews here but I for one thought this series has been entertaining so far. It started off quite good with a decent plot, interesting characters and in my opinion good acting. Some people say the acting is over the top but I don't see it that way at all. Others complain about the production value which seems rather silly to me as well. Then there are rants about it being a series for juveniles but guess what. This series is based on the book series which is aimed for a young audience! I only found out about the books after watching the first season though. Personally, I rather review this for what it is, rather than for what it isn't. The show is not without fault though. There's Nico's annoyingly bad acting - who seems to be the exception - and then there's the somewhat weak ending of the first season. Yes, there are certain events that don't seem to make much sense. But still... I expected a mediocre series but I got more than I expected so I am looking forward to season 2.
