jennipalace This show was like a bait and switch. The first season has a strong, intelligent female lead, which led to women following the show. By the second season, Every thought, action and decision Elena makes and every outcome of every episode is dictated by the male characters. The reason shows like Charmed and Buffy lasted so long is that the female lead stayed the female lead and drove the outcomes, rather than becoming a victim of men or circumstance. It reminds me of Dark Angel, where the first season was an intelligent, kick-a** woman but by season 2 it devolved into some weird sci-fi fantasy where Max was no longer the focal point, but a slave to circumstance. We deserve better.

barlowjared Every other scene is sex. I'm a man, I like sex. But this? Stop trying to sell a show by showing naked people doing the dirty, or making any excuse to show nudity, in every other scene.... It's disgusting and a turn off to what could have been a good show.... Besides the blatant use of sex, the show has some decent acting, and writing. The characters show depth, and an interesting plot structure. All of that gets washed away, when the actors strip, just to strip. Besides the sex, I am still trying to understand why they force the alpha to almost adopt a 'Cult' leader position. Even talks like he is running a cult. Cut out 75% of the sex, and you have a 7-high8 out of 10. With all the sex, barely a 4

kimbermc-53446 If you like supernatural werewolf type fiction....this show is great. There are loads of interesting characters, the actors are pretty decent and the story line is always changing. If you miss an episode you might get lost.....so I recommend keeping up. Also this show doesn't center around teenagers......a plus in my book. There are a few far fetched scenes....however, it is a sci-fi show so I don't expect 100% believability. The action is fast paced enough that my husband will watch along with me. I like that the show deviates from the book somewhat so that those who have read the books are still entertained. Definitely worth a look if you like this genre of fiction.

Shopaholic35 I don't mind this show. I tend to get a Twilight Soap Opera vibe from it but it's still pretty good to watch. There is so much drama and angst oozing from the characters, plenty of forlorn pained expressions and unrequited love. It's sappy and predictable but strangely appealing.I would appreciate a little more plot development though. So far they've only focused on one aspect that probably doesn't need to be explored more. It just needs some new plot twists to keep me engaged.Can we also just take a minute to talk about all the butts in this show. I mean every now and then is fine but I'm starting to get butt boredom from seeing them flashed across the screen every five minutes. Enough already.
