His Dark Materials

marsh_6055 shared a tip "I wish this miniseries had a better understanding of its source material. Many background characters have no daemons or whose daemons go absurdly far from their humans, which make it weird when we run into billy costa and we’re supposed to be terrified of him. As much as it’s cool to see lee Scoresby so much, he serves as Mr Exposition in storydragging ways. They also did not make lord Asriel intimidating enough."

RicoLoveDinero shared a tip "I need to finish this show I watched the first season and a few episodes of the second. It’s not my go to type show but it’s definitely good"

madison_aiello shared a tip "This is my second favorite show of all time. I highly recommend it! They just filmed the 3rd and final season. It’s should be out by the end of 2022."

rowan_granger shared a tip "Hi so I think that this is my favorite show of all time. It is based in the world of Phillip Pullman’s YA fantasy series and the worlds are simply stunning!"

melissa_3561 shared a tip "So much better than the movie adaptation. Lin Manuel Miranda as Lee Scoresby was brilliant casting. The ending of season 2 (The Subtle Knife) will make you 😭"

mandybluespirit shared a tip "Im enjoying this series!its so interesting the charecters and the world it self are so alive and diffrent from other stories and tv shows i hope to be able to read the books some day."

emilio_ramos shared a tip "It won’t get you the excitement of Logan (The wolverine movie where the main actress is also a part of) but it’s a very nice storyline that you will likely enjoy unless if you’re too religious."

kimlikesfood shared a tip "Great show! So much better than the movie since this time they didn’t cut out all of the religious aspects!!! Does really well at delving into the complexities of human relationships in a fantasy setting!!! Actors are amazingly spot on!"

DsterCR shared a tip "I didn't know that this show was related to the movie 'The Golden Compass' which I was interested in awhile ago purely out of nostalgic missed movie to later see that the movie is considered poor quality and then saw this show is related to that movie, and this show is a sleeper hit!!! Please watch it, cause soon the season two begins in November. It is a great family oriented / preteens show."

candice_3569 shared a tip "Yes. My kids and I did and can’t wait for next season. It is on the dark side for kids though so it might not be good for young or sensitive ones. Similar to Stanger Things or Dark Crystal."

colton_p shared a tip "Love it haye when it ends and waiting for more! Love the story line and hope they make many more seasons we need to spread the word about it so they will keep it going!"

aaron_adams_4498 shared a tip "First season is great, second season flounders on the latter half, likely due to the pandemic affecting production. Lin-Manuel Miranda is an odd choice for Scoresby, especially when compared to Sam Elliot in the previous movie, but the cast is exceptional overall."

nicholas_anderson_9859 shared a tip "Expanded version of the golden compass. It has the same quality of and modern adaptation. If you got time, and like the slow burn it is pretty good"

jskoky shared a tip "Excellent very entertianing, second season goes farther than the movie third season available for a price. In my opinion its not suitable for young children, some tough plot twists unlike the movie; this is meant for adults."

wanderingwolf shared a tip "Loved this!! If you like action, with a mysterious story, and fantastic world concepts you'll love it! Also if you liked the golden compass, which is what this is. Highly recommend!"

hellokaela shared a tip "Couldn’t stop watching this show, it is wonderfully complex and the acting is great. Not to mention the visual fx and costumes. Imagine living in a world where you have an animal that can talk and change at will. Also deals with the multiverse and inter-dimensional travel."

sam_woodington shared a tip "Actually a book series not mangled by turning into a movie (I am looking at you The Golden Compass) Sooo worth it, even if you didn't know the books existed."

lisa_delfino shared a tip "Read the books. Super happy with the actors chosen to play the characters and glad they gave it a second chance after the movie didn’t do so well. Can’t wait for season 3!"

taylor_flett shared a tip "It was good and McAvoy as always shines in this show. The girl who plays Lyra is from the Wolverine movie and she plays her role really well."

ken_m_2947 shared a tip "Good show. Mixes scifi and fantasy with the meaning of consciousness. Pet peeve is when storyline has smart characters that make irrational decisions. (Ex. Witches)"

devan_skattum shared a tip "Love this series! I started watching because of Lin-Manuel Miranda but I stayed because it's amazing! It's hard not to get invested in the characters."

glenna shared a tip "Very disappointed in this show. I’ve read the books MULTIPLE times and I’m frustrated with the lack of urgency this show portrays, among MANY other things. Lin Manuel Miranda as Lee Scorseby performs poorly and the added scenes with the magisterium make me fall asleep instantly. The books are edge-of-your-seat, nail biting excitment and i don’t feel that excitement with this show. However, the visuals and the soundtrack are stunning. I highly recommend reading the books first. As always."

raynah_morris shared a tip "I loved every minute. It was an excellent way to rope in lovers of the Golden compass. Give them a different perspective and the add on storyline were captivating."

karen_sablowsky shared a tip "The books though!!!!! His Dark Materials book series is what this show is based off of and they really did a fabulous job with it!!!!"

isabella_rene_galle shared a tip "This show is so interesting and is so unique and different than any other shows that I’ve watched before! It’s so suspenseful and mysterious! I recommend watching it!!"

isabella_7835 shared a tip "Thank you! Well if you love this show I would definitely recommend a show called “the nevers” it’s on hbo and it has a great plot about magic and different portals."

sarah_parris shared a tip "Really love this show. Has very deep concepts and great character building. Perfect for anyone who loves sci fi or dystopian genres. I do wish they made the main girl, Lyra, a little older for her age in the series. Instead of 12 maybe 14 would make more sense but it’s a great watch. Absolutely binge worthy"

Christopher_Chros shared a tip "It's a great series and based off of even better books. Dafne Keen once again shows how much of a talented actress she is. With a trio of Ruth Wilson, Dafne Keen, and limited face-time of James McAvoy, and a story that will keep you on edge episode to episode with mystery. drama, action, and emotion, this is a series that can't be beat."

deja_mckenzie shared a tip "Loved this! It shows that the directors of this series try to stay as true to the books as possible. They take some liberties but, this series is wonderful! I recommend both the show and the books."
