"A Discovery of Witches" is a fantasy series based on the similarly-named novel of the "All Souls" trilogy, written by Deborah Harkness. Reluctant witch/historian Diana Bishop discovers a bewitched manuscript in the Bodleian library. As she attempts to unravel the secrets this book holds about magical creatures, she is forced back into the world of magic, full of vampires, daemons, witches and forbidden love. Forming an unlikely alliance, geneticist and vampire Matthew Clairmont helps Diana to attempt to protect the book and solve the riddles within, while at the same time dodging threats from the magical creature world.

2/5
It isn't funny, sexy or scary, not because it fails at those things but because it refuses to attempt them. It also doesn't think fantasy should be a gateway to anywhere. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
The real standout, here, is Teresa Palmer, who is simply phenomenal as Diana Bishop. Go to Full Review
Rachel Kraus Mashable 01/26/2022
This mashup of the supernatural with the modern and academic worlds is enough to keep me watching for the show's third and final season, even if the acting is mostly terrible and the plot is all A Bit Much. Go to Full Review

A Discovery of Witches is an ideal moody, romantic show to catch up on in the coldness of wintertime. Go to Full Review

4/5
It will keep audiences hooked as it subtly moves on from being a romance drama to a supernatural suspense and leaves plenty unexplored for possible future seasons. Go to Full Review

Giampiero S @Regiampiero Apr 28 What a disappointing end to such a good story. Final battle was so anticlimactic, Demons were never really explained, and Gebert's story and motivations remain surface deep. I feel like 3 seasons got cut off of this series. See more P M @RT79355241 05/14/2025 Season 1 was mildly interesting. Season 2 became bogged down with too many new characters and subplots. Season 3 was just a series of banal monologues promoting the politics of the writers' room. See more Sarah M @RT06121576 02/02/2025 I really hated to see this show end! I wanted more! Love the magical characters and time travel! I recommend this show! See more Ace T @RT50828643 11/05/2024 Understandable they stopped here. Each season the show got worse. Started out pretty good, second season was decent but worse towards the end, then season 3 just so plain & boring. Everything in it just expectable and the same as every other show currently. See more LL S @RT94144845 10/10/2024 What there is of a final battle is somewhat anticlimactic, but the last chapter is a satisfying coda to an enchanting saga. See more Barbara A @RT95463672 09/16/2024 A contemporary twist on the notion of creatures living amongst humans, their needs, desires, and outcomes of mating and parenthood that have both good and not so good consequences. The mingling of strong bonds and magic overrides evil forces that lurk from the past and gives way to the notion that there is hope for the future. Expect an emotional and touching series set in present day Venice and London well as the 16th century! Excellent and forceful acting and action without the slightest over-reaching that supernatural tales about witches, demons, and vampires commonly depict. See more Read all reviews
