TV Review: First Kill (2022) (Supernatural YA)

First Kill
2022
8 episodes
MA15+
Sarah Catherine Hook, Imani Lewis
Supernatural YA
Netflix

Falling in love is tricky for teens Juliette and Calliope: One's a vampire, the other's a vampire hunter — and both are ready to make their first kill. (Synopsis)

Overall, First Kill was an enjoyable teen vampire series. With a bit of a Buffy feel about it at times, it ticked all the trope boxes while adding some excellent LGBT representation and a few fresh elements to hold viewers' interest. Some of the secondary characters caught my attention too, and if it gets a second series, I would be keen to see how things develop with both Juliette's dad and her brother. I won't say more than that to avoid spoilers. There were the odd things I questioned or rolled my eyes at, but that was minor and didn't stop me finding this series entertaining overall, so I am giving it 4 stars.
