    This show is corny, cringey, and low budget and its the best show I’ve ever seen idc. As a young lesbian it makes me so happy to see this.

    Sapphics deserve their own cringey, corny, teenage vampire romance. Its our time to rise!!🏳🌈

    This show is giving me a main character that is a DARK SKINNED SAPPHIC GIRL, with siblings and parents that aren’t homophobic. They better not cancel this shit. I will be so livid! This is the kind of representation I have been waiting to see!!!

    if the straights get cringey, cheesy shows, why cant we? everyone deserves this kind of content across the spectrum. this show is bad but damnit it's our show and I love it

    My biggest complaint about the first season is the writers seemingly deciding partway through that actually the general public DOES know about monsters. Overall it’s a cheesy, messy show, but since that’s deliberate, I can’t really fault them for it.

    Is this show campy and cheesy? Yes.

    If Riverdale got as many seasons as it got, then First Kill definetly deserves to get atleast a second season imo

    I knew I could trust your expert opinion on this, Amanda. I've seen people say "wlw deserve better!" and no? We deserve campy teen vampire shows! If I had seen this when I was in highschool I would have gone bananas

    Not every show needs to be a masterpiece, let teens have their campy little drama, especially teens that aren’t as represented.

    thank you SO much for doing this review. i think this show isn’t getting nearly enough credit. it’s cringy, cheesy, and so entertaining, i’m obsessed. please netflix give us another season! 😭🌈

    I saw someone say that this has "my babysitter's a vampire" energy and as someone who used to love that movie/show I totally agree. Is it objectively good?? No. But I will defend it with my entire being Bcus my god is it entertaining. (Spoilers) I would pay money to see the dad eat grandma again

    The thing that messed me up about the show was not the writing or acting or even the cgi. It was the amount of times characters would lay on their beds WITH SHOES ON. This is the only show where it caught my attention everytime. Other then that, this show is a comfort and i had a lot of fun watching it. i hope we get more seasons! 😁

    Seeing reviews about how "the teen lesbian vampire show is cliche and cringey" and I'm like "yesss??? Hello? As opposed to what OTHER teen lesbian vampire show?"

    This show is a hot mess and I love ALL OF IT! Also, “I didn’t watch The 100, but I’ll still never forgive them for Clexa” made me cackle.

    I loved this show so much for all it's awkwardness and cringe. The one thing I can't get over is Theo, who was BLEEDING OUT ON THE FLOOR saying "help me" and Juliette somehow interpreting it as "drain my blood so I can die peacefully." Like, babe, I know you have one braincell that's completely occupied with simping for Calliope but come on

    The acting is miles better than in most of the other teenage romance shows, when the father almost died i really cried a little and i didn't even cry when Mufasa died, so that's a huge accomplishment. Also so far blessedly zero sex scenes, so that's a giant plus for me

    As a former (teenage) lesbian (I am a straight trans man but lived as such for like 18 years) we DID make out in parties and have ridiculously intense relationships not even having 1 proper date (lived in a homophobic small town so that's the reason). So all these intense scenes and the passion and the awkwardness. SPOT ON. I felt called out
