The Secret Circle

A fairly generic teen supernatural drama. Entertaining, but not original.

Well, I liked the genuine science, but they turned it almost into science fiction at times. Still, a nice mystery solved by intelligence and knowledge every week is nothing to sneeze at.

Good through the first four seasons, but cast changes at that point killed the fun for me. I'll probably go back and watch the last four seasons later, but without the characters I liked from the earlier seasons, it just isn't the same.

Amusing most of the time, and the cases were typically well done, but the immature antics of the main duo really got annoying at times.

This was a really fun spy show, with the added bonus of MacGyver-like improvisation instead of superspy gadgets that seem so deus ex machina.

While I enjoyed the show, it was a strange combination of grim and camp that I never quite grew accustomed to. Some of the situations were so contrived that they took me right out of the show.

Probably my favorite spy show of all time. Action packed, yet constantly humorous. The will-they-won't-they nonsense went on far too long, which is the sole reason I can't give Chuck a 5.

A think veneer of an interesting concept over a boring police procedural. Forever did it better.

Starting nearly all cases with remains so old that they are reduced to a skeleton is a little unique, which made the show stand out a bit, but at its heart the show is just another police procedural with a slightly more charismatic than usual cast. Junk food for the brain, but sometimes entertaining.

A fantastic show, gone way too soon. While part police procerdural, it was also part scientific mystery and that is what made it brilliant. The show also made the bold choice of displaying the genius character as warm, sociable, and charismatic. Nice to see that at least a few shows don't assume geniuses are unable to function in society! I strongly recommend this show.
