Uhhh... so this happened

[InventiveMeasures]

There's a new show called Shadowhunters that's coming out on ABC Family. Looks a little corny to me and seems inspired by the Illidari. What do you think? Have you heard of this show before and would you watch it?

[Binaris]

I take it you don't realize it is a completely unrelated book series called the Mortal instruments that has even spawned a movie adaptation 2 years ago?

[PBitt]

Trailer was quite cringe-worthy. Don't think I'll be watching it.

[Crillam]

I'll stick to CW shows...

[MORGATH99]

tha fuck i just watch

[Calzaeth]

Cool. From what I remember from the first book, it's basically a better, more hilarious Twilight. The MC discovers at the end of the book that the Dreamy Hunk is actually her brother. Full-on, both parents in common brother Cracked me right the hell up, and I kinda wanna read the rest of the series just to see how the author handles the situation.

Wrong forum. Bait title. Close this garbage.

Probably get a better response if posted in the "Cinema / TV Shows / Music / Books" section of OT.

Admittedly no, and I wouldn't pretend to know anything about the books, though I could fake the funk with a quick Google search. I thought the lore of the Illidari was made prior to 2007 but I could be wrong and it could be a coincidence.

In what way is it a bait title? If you hover your cursor over said title does it not show the first few sentences? Game over, nice try though. Please insert more quarters to continue.

ABC Family.........................

Y U DO DIS? STAHP!

The bad acting, the bad make-up, the bad cringeworthy trying to be dubstep music, the bad casting, the shit lines...Who the fuck greenlighted this shit? Looks like it was made by a bunch of college kids from a Christian university.

Just no.

Tho probably gonna be a hit with the Tweens, like all that other shit like Vampire Chronicles and what the fuck not.

Ugh... so much Cringe, I'm practically in the fetal position.

[melodramocracy]

That looks embarrassingly bad.

I'm in the middle of streaming Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Shadowhunters reminds me a lot of Buffy, even the lead female character looks a lot like Sarah Michelle Geller.



Buffy the Vampire Slayer is pretty amazing.
