"The magicians" meets "Teen wolf".
That is basically the gist of it.
It's better than I thought it was going to be.
Guess it being made by Netflix, didn't give me any great expectations...
The four heroes (the knights) are all really good characters, with the writers having given them some decent humor. Some scenes are a little cringeworthy, and some a little bland, but is an OK show.
After binging the first season, and some of the second.
I can see why people might not like it. It is first and foremost a commentary on south Crenshaw, growing up in the hood and feeling like you don't belong. As well as trying to escape your circumstances, while not dismissing your past or leaving people behind.
Secondly it's a football show, and you might be put off if you have no interest in football.
However, there is more than enough storylines and focus points in this show to be enjoyable to most people.
You might notice I gave a 6/10, which in my opinion is above average.
I do have some problems with the show that keeps it from being amazing.
It is a little cliché, it is driven more by short storylines than an overarching plot. Which can be entertaining, but also makes it harder for me to stay interested over time. It might be a show I'll enjoy binging in its entirety. But I can't see myself revisiting for every new season.
