Wynonna Earp

I gave this show two chances about two years apart from one another and both times I started on episode one and hated it. Finally, on the third chance I've given this show, I watched episode two. I may be wrong on claiming this, but I believe even the effects were better in episode two. The show really does hold up to its high ratings now. I'm surprised more than anyone that I'm watching this show but I can't get enough of it! I'd definitely recommend!

Yup, the effects are really bad. Also, a western demond show. Yes you've heard me right. Why am I sticking around? Because the lead actress and the dialogues are really just damn good, smart, fresh and funny. It reminds a bit of the old nineties demon effects that hardly works anymore, but thankfully the script is good. I like the sisters and I like the storyline with the cop and the other sister. If only they had some bigger budget...

I don't consider myself an Earper, but the fact that I follow this show at all is a step up from my usual apathy.

Look, objectively Wynonna Earp is not a particularly great show. The dialogue is deeply cheesy and often terrible. The special effects are atrocious. And season four has developed the unfortunate habit of winking to its fans a little too often.

And yet, the whole thing has such effusive love both in front of and behind the camera that I can't help but be caught up by it. The actors are clearly having the time of their lives with goofy material, and that enthusiasm is infectious. WayHaught is one of the best ships in recent memory not just because it's fairly well-written, but because Dominique Provost-Chalkley and Katherine Barrell are clearly invested in their characters and doing right by them. And no matter how corny or ridiculous Wynonna's antics become, Melanie Scrofano anchors the show with her fearless performance.

In short, the definition of guilty pleasure TV. Give it at least the first five episodes to hit its stride and don't take it too seriously - it certainly doesn't - by then you won't even think about looking back.

The first time I watched the pilot I really wasn't into it, because I didn't watch the second episode. Now, a few months later, I tried again and am so glad I did! It still takes three or four episodes to get into it, but it's definitely worth the wait. The characters and storylines are getting more depth, and builds up to an excellent season 2, which had me wanting for more! Starting season 3 now, which I hope delivers just as much.

I liked season one and two a lot. Season three started downhill. Season four is just silly. Nothing in the storyline seems to make sense. We get Waverly and Nicole are in love. But does every episode need a five minute love scene between the two of them. It just takes up space, when there could be something more interesting going on. I'll watch until the end, because I like the characters themselves. But I really don't like the storylines anymore. Or should I say lack of storylines. This used to be a great show, but the shark has officially been jumped.
