The title says it all, really.
I didn't want to pull my hair out in rage, like some of the reviewers, but then, I'm not as wedded to the genre as perhaps some of the others are, so there's no rage from me. Haha!
It was decent enough and had (just about) enough highlights to keep me watching through to the end. That said, it WAS too long. Either the show should have been like 10 episodes, or each episode should have been half as long, bc I DID find that sometimes it was an effort to persevere to the end of a 45 min episode. Breaking it down a little more, might have helped.
Not terrible. A LOT more then 'meh', but definitely less than 'great'!

Look - American Werewolf in London this isn't. But then, I didn't expect it to be. What it IS, however, is a decent enough stab at a werewolf flick. Sure, there were a few of the standard tropes, but if you just sit back with a metaphorical box of popcorn, you won't have a terrible time. Just don't go in expecting this multi-million, CGI'd to death show. It's not that, not trying to BE that. So why compare it, knowing already that you'll be disappointed.
EDIT:
OK, so season 2 came along a year later and, I recently caught up with it it. I liked S1, LOVED S2!!!! More action, faster flowing story and each episode brought us closer towards the reveal which - I DID NOT EXPECT!
There was obviously a little more money spent on the second season, as the wider locations and some of the transportation/effects shots showed.
The surviving (literally) cast really worked hard and well to make what could have been a very static story into a great thriller. Multiple twists, a deeper look into their pasts...
Look, this is not your multi-million blockbuster, and it suffers a little because of that - but it really IS a LITTLE. It's a HIGH-END show nonetheless. Not sure how they'd manage a S3, but I'd love one!!!
ORIGINAL REVIEW: Yeah. This was a lot of fun.
Enough suspense and twists in S1 to keep me watching.
Only 8 episodes, which actually worked for me, as I didn't have to put my life on hold to watch smth new.
IMDb says S2 is coming soon. Prolly watch S1 again so that I'm up to speed and can finally get to know who/what/where/when, etc. My money's on... nah! I won't spoil it - lol!
