The only thing this show accomplished is wasting my time.
I went into the pilot cold as I haven't seen the movie or read the book. I'm sure there's some interesting lore behind it but this just felt like every other magical tween show that's been made in recent years. They're overdone and rarely done well. Although it wasn't all bad; Harry Shum Jr. in eyeliner is a revelation.
first 10 min already nothing like the books. What is so hard about following the books for once..
The movie was OKish. But this is just bad. Not sure why I even bothered watching the pilot.
