    That's the best Greek series EVER!

    I Magissa (or The Witch) is one of the best tv shows I have ever watched!! It's so good!!! Firstly, the plot is sooo interesting and now that Season 2 and 3 have been announced (as this is going to be a trilogy) I'm so excited to see what's coming next in this AMAZING story!!! The acting is phenomenal !!! The soundtrack is literally amazing . The supernatural scenes are well filmed and directed!! Not to spoil anything for the finale of season 1, but I don't understand why people hate it so much. IT WAS AMAZING. Anyways, a new season starring Maria Kitsou is coming this October and I couldn't been more excited !!!

    The Best Greek TV Show Ever Made?

    "The Witch" is hands down the best Greek TV show of all time and one of the finest horror series ever made. While Season 1 was impressive, Season 2 has taken the show to extraordinary heights with its captivating plot, phenomenal cast, stunningly filmed scenes, and a perfect balance of terror. The storytelling and production quality rival-and even surpass-some major American shows.

    The atmosphere is immersive, with every episode leaving you on the edge of your seat. The performances are powerful, and the cinematography captures the eerie essence of the story brilliantly. It's a rare gem in the horror genre, proving that Greek television can compete on an international level.

    This series deserves global recognition and would be a perfect addition to Netflix. Here's hoping it reaches a wider audience soon because it truly deserves to be celebrated worldwide!

    A hidden horror gem

    I Magissa (The Witch) is an absolute gem of a series that deserves so much more recognition. As a Greek living abroad (in Austria), I watch it on ANT1's website, and it has completely captivated me.

    Season 1 was fantastic, setting the stage with its compelling storyline and vivid depiction of the 1800s. But Season 2? It's on another level. It's darker, richer, and even more engaging. The atmosphere is drenched in the magic and mystique of the era, pulling you into a world that feels both real and otherworldly.

    The show masterfully blends historical elements with drama, intrigue, and just the right touch of supernatural allure. The production quality, costumes, and cinematography are top-notch, bringing the 18th century to life in a way that feels authentic and magical.

    If you're looking for a gripping, underrated series that combines history, fantasy, and drama, I Magissa is it. I love this show and can't wait to see where it takes us next! Highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates well-crafted storytelling.

    The Greek house of dragons without dragons but with a little magic.

    A unique in concept tv series in Greek TV history with a historical background situated in Mani in 1817 a few years before the Greek national uprising against the Ottoman rulers. The story is between two families that struggle to overcome their internal problems and in the same time struggle to maintain their leading position (Laskaris clan) or gain status (Gerakaris clan). They are tied together in a fragile marriage and a well hidden fate that will unveil to them as events happen. Mystery,drama,power struggle set a unique plot.

    The characters are very interesting and well designed to give a spice to the plot. They are smart, ruthless, reckless, pationate , vengeful .ambitious and in some way resemple the strengths and weakenesses of Olympian gods.
