    Sometimes "bad" is so cringe-worthy that it makes something fun to watch. 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. Looks cheaply made and lazy so why did anyone even bother making this. The snarky talking cat on Sabrina The Teenage Witch was moreSometimes "bad" is so cringe-worthy that it makes something fun to watch.

    A-W-F-U-L!!!! Which is totally disappointing as I was really looking forward to this series. Really Bad Acting. Bad plot (basically TwinPeaks but with vampires, ghosts, and witches). .Couldnt even get thru pilot episode. (Did I mention the bad acting? LoL.). Bad dialogue. Steer clear. Glad this episode was free on my streaming service.

    P.s. Bad acting

    Another show that had a shot but really, really bad writing is going to sink this show it's like they forget what they wrote the week before ! First everyone in midnight hides their power then in another scene their is a bar full of supernatural monster drinking with regular people. Then we have a witch who has no power because she had them bound but somehow is still immortal. Oh that'sAnother show that had a shot but really, really bad writing is going to sink this show it's like they forget what they wrote the week before !

Then we have a witch who has no power because she had them bound but somehow is still immortal. Oh that's not all she still is able to teleport and jump thru a ceiling but remember she has no powers wtf... Also lets not forget we need to be P/C so lets add gay characters and they choose and angel not only is he gay he falls for a demon. Wait we are told demons can't love and have no thoughts but killing yet not this one all the others are bad but this one who as luck would have it is also gay. Sound stupid yet this is just a comment on the last 2 episodes if I went show by show I would need way more than 5000 characters sum up this is god awful no pun intended. Who knows one day they may write a show that tries to at least follow their own writing. Until then I would watch something else no wonder a couple of the actors left the show before the second season ended. My real number for this show is 0 but the lowest they let you go is 1... Expand

    Mostly the show dutifully doles out a lot of the special effects viewers expect from a supernatural series. But it’s all noise and explosions of light with scant attention to character development or relationship building (beyond the one obvious romance), something “True Blood” got right early on.

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

    It will undoubtedly seem tame to staunch "True Blood" fans. But a few winks of humor and some good scares make Midnight, Texas more than you'd expect from a summer series on broadcast TV.
