The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself

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%.

Couldn't stop watching this show. It's very interesting. At first when I saw the title I thought it will be not be that good. I thought I will not like it. But I ended up loving this show. Storytelling is good and done at a good pace. In many shows you can skip some useless scenes and they are boring to watch but this show doesn't have that. Every scene is meaningful and moves the plot forward. I never got bored of it. And when every episode ended I really wanted to watch the next episode right away. Also the show keeps getting better as it goes. If you like fantasy, magic and witches and stuff then this is a must watch. This is one the best shows on Netflix right now.

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.

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.
