Hmmph
I decided I would watch the series 'A Discovery of Witches' largely because parts of season 3 have been shot locally to where I live.
First few episodes were pretty and watchable (though it's always slightly weird seeing Fairytale Oxford with all the plastic and concrete bits cgi'd out).
But then it took a hard swerve into Super-Special Protagonist And Romance and somehow... the protagonist who initially seemed to have quite a strong personality and opinions sort of morphed into a plastic doll who does a lot of standing and prettily reacting to things (in that does stuff with eyes and mouth but not actually saying anything or making her own decisions way) even though apparently she was genetically the Chosen One, and the romance began to trip my 'oh come on these people have literally zero chemistry' switch in the same way that Tristran and Isolde (JUST KEEP YOUR PANTS ZIPPED FFS) do.
Anyway, I'm not watching in any very coordinated or intelligent manner because the cold is still making me zonked but I am not sure I shall make it to season 3.
