Meredith Quill October 22, 2016 Share October 22, 2016 Discuss Crazyhead here! After 1 ep, it has my interest enough to carry on watching. Although I guessed almost right away that Tony Curran's character was one of the bad guys, not sure how he manages not to be 'seen' by the Seer though? Link to comment
Bort October 23, 2016 Share October 23, 2016 Tony Curran has played the epitome of evil in everything I've seen him in, so I don't know why this show thought we wouldn't figure out that this was the case for his character. It's like watching Law & Order or Castle and figuring out the murderer by the most recognizable name in the guest star credits. Amy didn't seem to 'see' her roommate at first either, maybe it's a matter of them being suspicious enough for her to take a 'deeper' look? I liked this too, it premiered my last night in the UK, so now I'll have to wait until the Netflix release to see the rest. Link to comment
hatchetgirl November 4, 2016 Share November 4, 2016 I'm enjoying so far. it's fun for a laugh. a bit choppy. Link to comment
Meredith Quill November 4, 2016 Author Share November 4, 2016 I agree it is a bit choppy. That may improve though, at least that's what I'm hoping and why I'm sticking around for now. The premise has potential and could be good, or it could lose itself up it's own backside; a little too soon to say ;) Link to comment
Tarasme December 19, 2016 Share December 19, 2016 Binge watch on Netflix over the weekend: Yeah. The best part for me was the effort to develop the friendship between Raquel and Amy. Even with that, what we learned about them was reduced to a few sentences. For instance, exposition about Amy= she works in a bowling alley, has two friends, struggled with her sanity, and her mom was "crazy" but, apparently, a "seer" too. The heroes were flat. The villains were flat. I wish Jake's possession had lasted longer than ten minutes. He was much more interesting in those few scenes than being the Zeppo through all the other episodes. Blue humor's not my thing; being disgusting for the sake of disgust gets old fast. A lot of that nonsense- even just one particular theme being harped on, like the gates of hell opening- or not- through Raquel's girl parts- could have been replaced with character development. 1 Link to comment

Mecca January 1, 2017 Share January 1, 2017 It was a little annoying that Amy had two men chasing after her while Raquel was reduced to constant jokes about needing a vibrator. Not to mention, her only relationship turned out to be with a demon who was using her to open a portal to hell. There are so many ways I could read into why the writers chose to portray it that way... Did they explain why Raquel's brother can't demons or why Raquel and Amy are able to see the demon's true form only some of the time?

His inclusion in the group never made any sense to me. After he saw Raquel's father's dead body at the ice rink, you'd think he would have ran for the nearest exit. 2 Link to comment

Raquel is a half demon through her demon father (he jumped to her human father and "jizzed in [her] mom"), so I think that's why she can see demons. Her brother can't because he didn't get the "gift," I assume. They made a point of saying it's genetic, but that doesn't mean everyone gets it. Amy's mother was a seer who apparently either didn't know it or didn't want to embrace it, and that's how it was passed on to Amy. Some demons can control themselves enough that their true face stays hidden, like Callam was able to. Link to comment
Mecca January 3, 2017 Share January 3, 2017 Oh, ok that makes a little more sense. For some reason, I thought Raquel's brother was also half demon and I was confused as to why he was so oblivious to it all. Link to comment
sacrebleu January 10, 2017 Share January 10, 2017 What I didn't understand was the badass working mom demon developing maternal instincts for her kid. It wasn't her kid-- because they explained that a demon having a child with a human was rare (Raquel was unique). So, do demons take on characteristics of their hosts' or don't they? It was fun series, good not great. They could build up the seer mythology- are only women seers? 1 Link to comment

Watching, I assumed she had the kid before becoming possessed and so it was her kid from before, but it's not quite explained why once possessed she, not being the same she was before, would still care about the kid. So it's either a big plot hole or they have a logical explanation they didn't quite get to. Link to comment

From what I gathered, the demon may have jumped into Tyler and Raquel's bio dad's body between their births. Tyler is he product of non-possessed Dad while Raquel is the product of possessed Dad.

Who knows they may have once been humans or angels like in certain mythologies. Demons gain new experiences when inside human bodies. It's possible the demon kind of imprinted on the kid. I really want a 2nd season. Does anyone know anything yet? Link to comment
pivot July 24, 2019 Share July 24, 2019 This is officially the weirdest show I've ever seen. So bizarre and really funny. Link to comment
