First Kill

I’ll begin with a disclaimer. I am not the target audience for this series, which I’m guessing are people born in this millennium, so some of the areas I had trouble with will actually be a plus for the target audience. The music, for example, I found to be loud and distracting. I kept muting it until I knew there was dialogue. Otherwise, the heart of this series is the couple and the context is the star crossed lovers of two house who are sworn enemies. The charm of the series rests entirely on Sarah Catherine Hook. Everything else would have been a colossal crash had they not cast her, her adorableness and talent saved the day. There are some bright spots in the supporting cast, but, by and large, the acting is uneven. The writing is all over the place, the characters are poorly drawn and the story arc often gets lost in translation. Basically, the audience that stays are there for the love story. I give this series a 6.5 (good in parts) out of 10. [Supernatural Romance]
