V-Wars

Shows like See and this one have enough potential, but the writers seem to think that their audience is unquestioning. Why on earth would the most valuable scientist be sent out to hunt for the vampires with the police - I'm hoping something that ludicrous wouldn't happen in real life. There are a few illogical bits woven into the overall storyline, but it's not a bad watch. The vampires don't sparkle or read poetry which is a plus.

As a Virologist, I have always found the concept for the cause of vampirism been a virus to be quite innovative & not outside the realms of possibility.

With that in mind, I found V Wars quite interesting. The polar regions are vastly unexplored territories so we don't know what lies breath them. So, the beginning of Episode 1, where the Prion existence for causing a virus infecting people with a disease that turns them into vampires is a great way to start a plot, that can offer many different angles for which the story can go.

While the plot turns out to not be as strong as I first envisioned after Episode 1, the ensuing episodes do makes an interesting story of humans ingenuity to combat the virus in every shape or from.

I found V Wars very entertaining. The characters could have been individually explored in greater detail, so as not to become mere caricatures of the actual plot. But the story is enjoyable enough to provide solid entertainment. The episodes do flow well with interesting stories.

I hope there is a season 2 so that the plot & story can be further developed.

I made it through (almost) 4 episodes hoping the script would sharpen, the acting would improve, the settings would become interesting. Wooden, hackneyed, waste of time. If they'd had the courage to make this a spoof of every bad vampire movie, it would have been hilarious. Unfortunately, it's all played with a serious face and even some of the actors seem bored or happy with their first "big" break on screen.Meh.

So far reviews seem divided into the extreme "complete rubbish" and the "absolutely fantastic" categories. I can understand why. Although strangely addictive (and I really can't work out why) this derivative dross will probably warrant a second series. And I'll probably watch it.

I've seen better, but i've seen ahell of a lot worse. You get to know the characters quite quickly, also feel a certain empathy towards them. The acting isn't terrible, and the script is fine. Think the bad reviewers maybe have a vested interest in slating this for some strange reason
