Eye Candy

I was hooked from the very beginning and am deeply saddened that the show didn't continue! Just as I was bragging to my colleagues and family about this awesome show I found and couldn't wait to get home to watch, it ended. I thought this show would kick off and go as far as Pretty Little Liars did, including the largely supportive fan base.

I was expecting a totally PG series, considering that Victoria Justice is involved. However, this is a completely different role for her. Justice has shed her good-girl image in this new series and in all honestly it's pretty impressive. With a collection of bad-ass digs and dark lipstick, Justice takes on a darker role than her previous ones.

Sure, the show doesn't have much of a star-studded cast and doesn't showcase any incredible acting, but then again one of MTV's most popular shows "Awkward." started off the same way.

In my opinion, I would give this show a chance. It may seem like the typical cliché teen drama that Hollywood seems to dish out so often nowadays, but there's something else that has yet to be seen. I believe there's potential in this series; there's definitely somewhat of a uniqueness since it revolves so much around modern technology and pop culture. Plus, the show has so many interesting story lines within one episode and there are so many plot twists that will leave you sitting on the edge of your couch.. literally.

So I don't know about anyone else, but I will be sticking with the show and seeing where it goes from here.

"Eye Candy" offers a thrilling ride through the world of cybercrime and online dangers, anchored by a strong performance from Victoria Justice as Lindy, a hacker determined to track down a serial killer targeting people through a dating app. The show combines suspense, mystery, and modern-day fears of technology to create a tense atmosphere that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

The series excels in its portrayal of the dark side of the internet, with plot twists that maintain a steady level of suspense. The supporting cast is solid, and the show does a commendable job of balancing the thriller aspects with Lindy's personal journey, making her a relatable and engaging protagonist.

However, despite its strong start and intriguing premise, "Eye Candy" was cut short after just one season, leaving many plot threads unresolved and fans craving more. The lack of a proper conclusion may frustrate viewers who are drawn into its world, but it still remains a worthwhile watch for those who enjoy fast-paced, tech-based thrillers.

I thought it was a good concept for a crime drama - serial killer meets stalker who hunts on a social media dating platform. Not too bad at all. They don't spare the gruesome crime scenes.

BUT the scenarios of having a member of the public (Victoria Justice) go bust down doors with the cops, work on a case, talk with suspects, etc. That really irritates me - that the show couldn't follow the protocols of the law, to make it as real as possible. She even calls the shots and makes the decisions in the dept.

Too ridiculous and far fetched for reality. If they only managed to find an angle for a story to tie all that in, and at least follow all the protocol and procedure of law enforcement, i would easily double my rating of this series.

I don't know if the show will have a very thick plot or very thin, i think it has potential but there is something missing maybe the way the characters are interpreted, the way they look or rather the chemistry between the characters is lacking. The costume designer could possibly make huge improvements on certain things like they way the cops look, they just look way too casual and incredibly surreal. Also the music is slightly distracting at times probably because it's a couple of DB higher than it should be, making the dialogue sound way to clean and clear to notice that's not real.

But all in all i think the idea is great and the shots,editing and especially the compositing keep the show appealing and fluent. I really hope the script will not falter as more episodes are released. The hook in the pilot was astoundingly good.

Great show if you're into crime/hacking thrillers
