First I want to start by saying I waited until I saw a few episodes before I wrote a review. It seems like there's a lot of criticism from people who haven't given the show a chance. Which tells me they never went into it with an open mind. This is something I've never seen before, black female witches on a television streaming service, not Youtube, not some random website but an actual TV service. That's big on its own. The story is well written and the main actors are amazing. A few of the side characters are a little green but not bad, and yes some of the special effects aren't the best. HOWEVER! This is not a MARVEL TV show, you can't expect them to have that kind of budget from a network that's taking a big chance on something that's never been done. If the show is successful they'll probably get more money and that kind of stuff will improve. (Just like the first season of Shadow Hunters, those effects were sad but it was much better as the series went on.)

People should be paying attention to the writing and the acting. There are some great characters and I love the bonding between the women on this show. At its heart, it's a show about black women with some supernatural aspects. Which I love! I'm excited to see where the story takes the characters and how the villains come into play. I really hope it gets a season 2. People should actually watch the show through and not be so quick to judge based on a few minutes or the trailer and come with an open mind not looking for negatives. And remember that people can only do what they can do with the budget they have. If we don't support these kinds of shows you'll never see anything like this again!

The show really has a strong premise. While the production and some of the acting may be an issue for some, I think the story more than makes up for that. The characters have their own personalities and I'm liking the magic system so far. I think the naysayers should give the show an opportunity to prove itself and grow before they write it off. We're only two episodes in at this point. I'm excited for more and think that if you like supernatural themed shows, this would tickle your fancy. Once the budget comes up, I think they'll really find their footing. I can't wait to see the characters be fleshed out and the storylines fully bloom.

This show has so much potential, I really think it deserves a chance! The actresses aren't completely on point however the storyline is intriguing and I am looking forward to seeing where they take it. I do wish that the episodes were longer so they could give more background. It tends to feel a little rushed and like we are missing important parts of the story. I've had to go back and rewatch multiple times only to realize I hadn't missed anything they just didn't explain when they should of. Even given those issues it's still got me coming back every Thursday to watch it. I hope they take the time to correct these issues.
