Review of A Discovery of Witches

I've only finished watching the second episode and although I love the fresh approach to the show, witches vs vampires vs demons and finding their origin, the female lead's poor American accent coupled with the awful vocal fry is horribly annoying. Just to add insult to injury, the character is supposedly a scholar yet portrayed as an infatuated prepubescent. Don't get me wrong, Teresa Palmer is both stunningly beautiful and a fine actor, but just not for this role. Perhaps someone more formidable like Carey Mulligan or an American, like Scarlet Johansson. This show really is 10/10 stars in content, cinematography, and has some fantastic actors. I'll try another episode with hope that Dr. Diana Bishop will act like an adult, get some courage and speak without the creaky voice.
