      • Aug 05, 2023
        Loved it, great visuals with interesting story
      • Aug 01, 2023
        This is probably the best urban fantasy I've watched in recent years. The key threads weave intricately, the characters are interestingly drawn and the dialogue between them is lively, the whole story is very engaging , the atmosphere of the world depicted, the intricacies of the politics, the setting and the clothes are also great.
      • Jul 26, 2023
        Very creative show. Amazing performances and set design.
      • Jul 17, 2023
        One of the worst series finales I've ever watched. The main arc of the series, the love story between Philo and Vignette ends in a horrible, abrupt and meaningless way with the rest of the entire plot developed.
      • Jul 11, 2023
        Good serie, but a big cliché about race, but with creature. when I'm watching a series i'm not looking for a political statement.
      • Jul 04, 2023
        Fresh concept, amazing design and the characters really draw you into the story. Much better than expected!

        In my opinion, Carnival Row is a truly outstanding TV show that manages to captivate its audience with a unique blend of fantasy, mystery, and social commentary. From the intriguing storyline to the exceptional performances of the cast, there are several reasons why this show stands out as a great piece of entertainment. First and foremost, the show's concept is incredibly compelling. The combination of a neo-noir detective story set in a fantastical world filled with mythical creatures creates a fascinating and immersive setting. Carnival Row effectively explores themes such as racism, discrimination, and political unrest through its intricate plot, making it more than just a mere fantasy series. One of the standout aspects of Carnival Row is the exceptional performances by the talented cast. Actors like Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevingne bring their A-game to the table, delivering nuanced and compelling portrayals of their characters. Their on-screen chemistry adds an extra layer of depth and intrigue to the story, making the viewer emotionally invested in the fate of the characters. Additionally, the attention to detail in the show's costume design is truly remarkable. The intricate and elaborate costumes help bring the fantastical world of Carnival Row to life, adding visual richness and authenticity to the overall experience. The costumes not only reflect the characters' individual personalities but also contribute to the show's immersive atmosphere. Furthermore, the production values of Carnival Row are top-notch. The visual effects are seamlessly integrated, enhancing the magical elements and creating stunning visuals that transport the viewers into the world of the show. The set designs, cinematography, and overall aesthetics are all meticulously crafted, contributing to the show's overall appeal. In conclusion, Carnival Row is a great TV show that successfully combines fantasy, mystery, and social commentary. Its intriguing storyline, stellar performances by the cast, and impressive costume designs all contribute to its excellence. If you're a fan of fantasy, detective stories, or simply enjoy high-quality television, Carnival Row is definitely worth checking out.

        A decent enough debut series that really focuses on world building and character development over what seems the second fiddle murder mystery.
      • Jun 04, 2023
        Beautifully made. Complex story. Very good actors. Perfect fantasy show.
      • Jun 04, 2023
        I like the mix of various genres and the setting. For me, that I don't particularly like the fantasy genre or series (except for mini-series or docu-series), Carnival Row is really good. I'm seeing the second season which starts even better than the first.
