I finally got around to watching this series on Netflix after a long delay due to reading a few negative reviews but wanted to finally make my opinion.
Firstly I was interested in the story - I haven't read the books but was introduced to the Shadow Hunter world by the movie so I dont have much to comapre or judge, but it's the same story line I'm most interested in. (There will always be a divide between book and movie/tv versions of any narrative).
Yes I agree the first couple episodes seem a bit lacking but you can't hot a home run straight off the first bat. I kept watching and finding getting more and more drawn in & constantly hitting next episode. I was initially dissapointed there seemed to be only 2 seasons but so excited now it is still continuing because now I'm hooked!
Notes: I think more raw emotion coming from the actors/characters and little less cliche moments will benefit but all characters stories are smooth and not over complicated but detailed that it doesnt create plot holes. Perhaps more focus on the inner character developments so we can get really attached to indivudals backstory and their life choices.
But still I am hanging out for the next season and I recommend at least watching the whole first season before making a judgement call - if it aint your thing fine but dont rain on others parade.

How this was pitched in the first place, no idea. How this was then agreed upon by a network panel is even more beyond belief. How it has made it even onto National TV network is a disgraced. There are surely ethical or moral infringements this 'show' is making. Emotionally torturing families and individuals who have already gone through their own personal hell and grief, that they decide to broadcast further inflictions onto the 'contestants' and make them feel guilty for what seemed like a generous gift. Fills me with disgust this type of show was considered in the first place - a show where you pin the grief & financial stricken families against each other. Its not generous, its sick amusement!
