I only tripped across this series by accident a year ago and by golly its great.
The casting is superb, the dialogue strong, the plot twists hard to second guess and almost every episode can be watched again and again.
Essentially, this is the story of two brothers caught up in a life of hunting down all the things your parents told you didn't exist. Monsters.
And that Heaven and Hell - and even Purgatory are real - but angels aren't what you learned about in Sunday school, Death the Horseman is pretty cool, and demons can surprise you.
This is like X-Files - without the UFOs, but with more intriguing conspiracy theories. There's lashings of witty dialogue, friction between the very good looking brothers, epic trials to save Earth from the squabbles of celestial beings and demon spawn - plus great fight scenes. Oh and an angel who's captain of God's garrison of warriors.
I can't recall the last time I saw a show run for 8 yrs and still going strong. By the end of it, you'll know more about mythology than you ever thought possible and quite believe they're out there.
Season one is the darkest - and sets the scene for the rest. I give it 10/10 and I think that's a first for me. If you enjoyed Grimm - this is right up your street.
