Midnight, Texas

Midnight is one of those shows that start slow with teasers. It's a nod and wink to the supernatural while also inter-splicing realistic possibilities. It's like a joke. A vampire, a witch, an angel, a wear beast and a hired killer walk into a diner. Except it doesn't have a punch line. Instead. It draws you in. Slowing unraveling each characters background until, you are invested In the towns scrappy bunch of characters. It's definitely worth the time. I intend to binge on all the episodes, thus far, this weekend. The marriage of the occult and Normalicy is intriguing and I'm interested to see where it goes.

Comparing this series to others on Netflix is really not fair. This one is unique in it's subject matter. Each character is totally different from the rest. I found that I wanted to watch more so am waiting for the next episode. No overacting.....one character not trying to out do the others. This is a new concept on network TV. I don't believe this particular subject matter has been attempted before. Let's give it a chance!

I love this show it is so much fun! I just hate the seasons are so short! More midnight please!!!

Reminds me a bit of Tim Burton's earlier work - a bit of Big Fish, Beetlejuice - some tricky figures and supernatural goings-on. I haven't read the books; perhaps the TV show can be best enjoyed by its own merits without the literary baggage. After just one episode, I'm excited to see more, and moreover, the actors all seem to have charisma and be provided with rich back stories. It's a little cheesy, but I'm all for some lightness mixed in with my vampires, angels, werewolves, witches, and psychic cuties.

Given that the show debuted on July 24, 2017, I am skeptical of the review, dated: 26 February 2017 | by Kai Breen.

Just saying...

Otherwise, the show seems to be setting itself up fine. Characters are interesting if not inaccurate to the novel.
