    A surprisingly assured supernatural saga with at least a little something for everyone, plus non-stop eye candy for one and all.

    If NBC’s new fantasy series (which debuts Monday) sounds like a jumble of every paranormal trope from Ed Wood’s “Night of the Ghouls” to HBO’s “True Blood,” that’s because it is, and wonderfully so.

    Like “True Blood,” the cheese factor is high here, but that’s what made the HBO series so fun.

Midnight TX takes bad to a level that makes it neither fun to watch in a mocking way nor "passable" bad to watch if nothing else is on. Watching this is what real Hell must be like.

The first episode I watched wondering to myself "why am I watching this" but now it has caught my attention and I have to see what is going to happen on each weekly episode. I guess I would have to say it keeps me coming back each week. This is the type of show where you really don't have to think much which is sometimes a good things. Just sit and watch.
