3 things I've learned from watching.... RH-Plus
1. The ooops trifecta of mediocre writing, so-so acting and jarring pacing can still create a reasonably enjoyable show.
2. Too much angst is actually bad when not balanced with enough badass or humor. Watching this show really brought home the point to me. I love vampire angst. Normally I say you can't have enough. But really it has to either come with humor or rough fights to carry it off. Pure sensitive angst makes me sleepy.
3. A bit of funny cute story can overcome a lot. But really if I were to throw a couple fixes at this one...I would have teased a bit more with all those hunky boys living together. A touch of romance whether it comes with the girl who knows them or between the boys could have clinched this very well.
Overall I would rate this show a 3 of 5. With that in mind, I did enjoy the story and got to like the characters. The show focuses mostly on how they overcome loneliness to form a family. I really liked the tone of their family and how important it became to each of them. So I may not recommend watching the whole series, but will say take a little time to watch the first episode and decide for yourself.
