First just some general observations: I like Tereasa visually as Diana, but sometimes I feel like her delivery and facial expressions are flat and one note (some of that can be blamed on the writing and some blamed on her attempt and speaking with an American accent). Another thought is that with this show, at least to me, it is noticable that there is a lot that happens off camera that is somewhat referenced or implied to on camera, which can throw viewers off track and can result in fans creating headcanon scenes to explain the gap/missing scenes. Thoughts on Episode 2: I felt like this episode had a lot of scenes that could have been omitted (a good number of these involved Kit) and replaced with different scenes that built on plot related things (Diana's Magic/the Boodk) and other relationships (Jack, Pierre, Francoise, Walter, and Hal).

So I'm here in the States and only getting 1 episode a week (I couldn't wait until June for it to air on TV). So on the first view of Episode 1 loved it. I've read the books so I am familiar with the correct order of events, I suppose time will tell if the adjusted order works or not. A lot happened and a lot was introduced in this episode After the second view I feel like there may have been a bit too much time spent with Kit and not enough on other characters.

Sky TV posted this teaser BTS video on their Facebook this morning: Edited: Guess the video was removed for some reason.

A promotional photo of Steven Cree (Gallowglass) in full costume was posted on Facebook.

My interpretation is that, in this world, the Demons/Daemons are a level or so above from humans (due in part to their genius/prodigy level). As a result I get the impression that the other Creatures look down on them since the Demons/Daemons don't have the "Powers" that the Witches and Vampires have. Now about episode 7; I'm glad that they are showing the Congregation being an active force because I was surprised that the missing page from A782 didn't get more play...it was there and then it wasn't, complete with a throw away comment Miriam about it bearing Mathews insignia. Which should have opened up a whole conversation about the symbolism and how it relates to Matthew and Diana. Which would have also been a perfect opportunity for, us the viewer, to see Diana use her background in Alchemy (which has been completely minimized in the show). Ultimately, I think that if this Season had been 10 episodes vs. 8 they could have taken a bit more time to build this world and explain/explore the nuances of why certain things are important.
