This is a (mostly) spoiler-free review for the first season of A Discovery of Witches. The series originally premiered in the UK in 2018, and now it's available to stream in the US via digital services Sundance Now and Shudder.
After the end of both HBO's True Blood TV series, and the blockbuster Twilight film franchise, it appeared that Hollywood had had enough of vampire melodrama... for a time. However, that didn't stop UK broadcaster Sky One from sinking its financial teeth into author Deborah Harkness' best-selling novel, A Discovery of Witches. Book 1 in the author's All Souls Trilogy is the backdrop for Season 1 (now streaming in the US via Sundance Now and Shudder), and it's an entertaining, if familiar romp into the world of supernatural beings, without the teen angst of Twilight, but still touting a heavy sprinkling of forbidden supernatural love, if that's your thing.
