Roveda A @KcdII May 11 Absolutely marvellous, the writing, the actors, the acting, the sets, costumes, everything, the dances was breathtaking, it's a pity it got cancelled, it should have got more marketing maybe. See more Tim O 10/22/2024 Meh. Massive fan of the first series; had very high hopes for this follow-on. But the production drifted too far from the strengths and engaging characters that made the original _work_. Not to mention too much "reimagining" of a period not that far into the past: You can get away with a lot, going back to supernatural 19th century fictional entities, as long as the story and characters engage the viewer. But this mess dragged, and was a bit too a-historic, to avoid a constant jarring of the viewer out of the period in which it was set. See more Dan K 09/19/2023 The show is nothing like the penny dreadful series that takes place mostly in Europe. That said, there's a mystery that gets progressively revealed along a creative story line and characters that you want to watch as they evolve. It needed too soon. See more 01/26/2022 Loved the acting. The story was pretty good. But the Latino torture was too much for me. How about we let Latinos write Latino stories? Because this was too much. Idk how I made it to the end. See more 12/08/2021 Politically-driven hogwash. But ticks all the diversity boxes if that's your thing See more Mark F 12/04/2021 It's gorgeous, with great actors. I'll never understand how an audience trashes anything so original--guess they miss their superheroes. See more Read all reviews
