Freaktana A Major Disappointment

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

julesatc So, I can't say that I hate the show, but my honest opinion is that it's really not all that well written. While I do understand it's meant to be more of a campy action SyFy show, the characters lack depth. I was looking for something with a strong female lead and this show was recommended, but it really falls short of that, at least in my opinion. Staying true to form, like a lot of sci fi themed shows, so many unnecessary problems could be avoided if time wasn't wasted trying to make not-so-pity remarks that leave you rolling your eyes and groaning, "Just figure your sh!% out already!" And the phrase "baby girl" can, and is, used much too frequently.Additionally there were 2 things that bothered me a little with the storyline at the basic foundation. Maybe it's because I'm a history/etymology nerd, but I've read that "Winona" means "first-born daughter" in Dakota, but it's clearly given to a middle child, with a spelling modification. The other, more pressing peeve, is that Wyatt Earp never had any children that lived and it's actually documented pretty well by a cousin of Wyatt's. I suppose there's always a chance of illegitimate offspring, but there's not much documented proof of that either. Descendant of the Earp clan, cool, I can get behind that claim. Great-great granddaughter of Wyatt Earp? Not so much.

carolp-16890 Has only one notice this is essentially Buffy - not that it make this series any less enjoyable but it's getting a little silly now. Born to be a slayer - there can be only one, except when briefly there are two, love affair with an immortal, lives on a hellmouth - the prvious hellmouth having collapsed into a crater, has a sister who isn't quite a sister, fights with sereral paramilitary organisations, etc etc

emu81684 This show, honestly, isn't that great. I personally couldn't get into it. A lot of people can, that's fine, but not me. It's filled with overacting and wonky casting. The premise of the story is good (All descendants of the Earp family are cursed to send the reanimated corpses of those killed by Wyatt Earp with his Colt Peacemaker) but the execution of it seems lacking. Again, the casting is just off enough I was never able to become invested in any characters and the overacting is painful in some areas. The only reason I stuck with the full first season was because of Michael Eklund -Bobo del Ray. Eklund plays the character just crazy enough he doesn't come off as campy or ridiculous. If it weren't for him, I'd have given up on the show after the first episode.

storeyonastory This show is worth every point on the 10 stars I gave it. In today's world of brain-rotting television shows, Emily Andras has created an urban fantasy show with action, sarcastic humor, diverse love, phenomenal writing, and an unspeakably amazing cast - who are not only great actors but are also great people who have completely embraced the fandom.
