Critic Reviews
Season 1 Review:
The mysteries are solidly built so the audience doesn’t get ahead of the many surprises. Of the three series, Talamasca: The Secret Order earns second best of the bunch because of its ease of entry, the excellent work of Denton, McGovern and Fichtner, and by fleshing out the concept of the Talamasca with Guy as a beguiling navigator of its secrets.

Season 1 Review:
Tonally and thematically, “Talamasca” is on surer ground than “The Mayfair Witches” was in its first season but still lags behind the astonishing feat pulled off with “Interview With the Vampire.” Yet that still signals a strong step forward for this Immortal Universe. .... As its own thing, too, there is a lot to enjoy.

Season 1 Review:
John Lee Hancock, the creator of “Talamasca,” makes the plots and characters thoroughly accessible to the non-Rice fanatic. .... Guy’s conflicts with the group and his own unhappy history make up much of the story, and the flurry of plot points occasionally feels like bats flying around your face. .... For all the good acting in the face of absurdity, it’s really Mr. Fichtner’s show.

Season 1 Review:
Talamasca appears to fall squarely in between [Interview With The Vampire and Mayfair Witches], neither excellent nor bad, but a pretty good story, great performances, and a promising premise that hints at a stronger cohesion for the Immortal Universe in the future.

Season 1 Review:
The twists and turns and red herrings and dropped subplots do lead, eventually, to a pretty good finale, with a grand reveal that’s everything you hope one will be — elegant yet surprising, linking together several seemingly disparate threads while shaking up the board in ways that could pay off in seasons to come. It’s just that by then, even that feels like too little, too late. With plenty of plot potential but too few characters actually worth giving a damn about, Talamasca fails to conjure any lasting magic.
