    At its best, Eerie combines two pop-culture phenomena: the substantial youth market for supernatural fiction ... plus the let's-take these-young-people-seriously attitude that made Beverly Hills, 90210 and Doogie Howser; M.D. touchstones for teen TV audience. ... So far, however, the show's concepts have been funnier than its scripts.

I was even more delighted to find that it's as good as I remembered it - equal measure offbeat humour and general weirdness mixed together as a youth drama. I watched it again with my pre-teen kids, who loved every minute. The characters are well thought out and brilliantly acted, without anyone taking themselves too seriously. The best way that I could describe this is as a mix of X-Files & Twin Peaks pitched at kids, with just the right amount of freaks and scares. Also: great cameo from Gomez from the original Adams Family!… Full Review »
