Midnight, Texas season 1
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
Welcome to a place where being normal is really quite strange. From Niels Arden Oplev, the visionary director of “Mr. Robot,” and based on the hit book series from author Charlaine Harris (“True Blood”), comes a journey into a remote Texas town where no one is who they seem. From vampires and witches to psychics and hit men, midnight is a mysterious safe haven for those who are different. As the town members fight off outside pressures from rowdy biker gangs, ever-suspicious cops and their own dangerous pasts, they band together and form a strong and unlikely family.

It’s basically a supernatural super-hero team and that’s a combination that I really love! I like all of the main characters, which is pretty rare these days. I like seeing them bounce of each other, watching as their secrets come back to haunt not only them but the odd little family they have in this tiny town. Each actor does a great job with their character, and with the chemistry with all the other unusual people of Midnight. The stories build well on each other, and it was clever to space out the backstories of the characters so you still have more to look forward to instead of keeping you guessing what each character is — in this day and age of being cancelled after just one show, they knew they had to throw it all out there to try and build an audience fast. I also like how multi-racial the cast is, as well as the couples. I honestly feel like there is a little something here for almost anyone — haters need not stop by Midnight. It’s a place of acceptance and forgiveness, even if your secret brings a big fight to their doorstop!

I’ve become addicted to this show and have pulled the rest of my household into the addiction with me. The characters and story are great and I’m eagerly waiting for season 2 to start in October. Although a word of warning if you’re a fan of the books, the TV adaptation is completely different and has very little in common with the books besides character names and a few plot points. That being said I admit that for once I actually like the TV adaptation better than the books.

The show sticks somewhat to the books, though it does deviate a bit. The characters didn’t quite match up to those I had in my minds eye while reading the books, but then they hardly ever do. One of my biggest grips is, while the book Chuy is an angel, the show Chuy is a demon (hated it). I also hate the rogue angel angle (see what I did there)? I love Lemuel, he is the perfect vampire! Overall, if you read the books, don’t expect alot from the show.
