A group of students are recruited to a secret academy where they learn that the magic they believe is fiction is, in fact, real. Based on the book series by Lev Grossman. Starring Stella Maeve, Hale Appleman, and Arjun Gupta.
I wasn’t impressed with this series. There was a lack of character growth or even strength. They seem rather shallow. The show seems to be written for a younger generation. It also has an overabundance of gender-fluid characters, which detracts from the story. Overall, the story doesn’t have the much to recommend it. It’s childish with too much plot holes to allow the story to flow. It also has a lot of language that does not need to be used. It’s one of those things that proves if your not smart enough, place a swear word here. This series is not worth a watch.
