    Good story but very lacking in acting and simple common sense, Can actually become irritating. Lead's sister is horrible. I don't know if they wrote her character that way or its just her overall the producer must stink. I'm not saying it has to b believable but at least plausible.

    This is a show made for people who've sustained rather severe head-injuries. The acting is at the level of a high-school drama-club, the characters are dumber than a bag of hammers, the plot has been stolen from Supernatural and Louis L'Amour and rewritten by someone from a call center in India, judging by the amount of sense and cohesion in it, and it's just plain boring.

    Wynonna Earp is a female Iron man with constant quick remarks, which will get tiring around the 15 minute mark of every episode. It's a rip off of Supernatural, two sisters killing demons that look like humans. The CGI is not that great, and it's really awkward to watch. Wyatt...

I meant Wynonna Earp is a tv show with a feminist agenda, not much different than the new Ghostbusters, all men are idiots for some reason. Except Kanye West who plays an agent of black panther or whatever it was called and Wynonna is trying to bang him constantly but he's not into her. Oh yeah and then there is the plot, which is that the government could tomahawk missile the entire site, but it's cheaper to hire a horny teenage girl to kill demons in public without any consequence. Oh yeah her sister keeps getting wet or has to take her clothes off so there's that.

    This show has a chance to be a hit but instead it will be off the air in one maybe 2 more season's. Why terrible writing this is suppose to be a sci fi show instead they throw in the token gay couple and it makes no sense at all.

They need to know who their audience is and it is not people wanting to be P/C or watch a woman who was suppose to be prom queen and drooling over men then boom she's gay really what the hell does this have to do with demons or vampires ? They could have had a gay demon and had that character be gay all along fine but this was just lazy writing and honestly a turn off to the core audience. Get back to and stick to demon's and vampires and other monsters enough with pregnant women fighting and lesbian love stories this is not a soap opera it I suppose to be and action show. Yes i said pregnant women fighting another stupid scene written by supposedly professional writers. Then after making a swearing heavy drinking loose woman pregnant she gives up the baby this and a lesbian love story sound like and action sci fi show or some chick flick soap opera ? Ratings dropping wonder why hope they turn it around and stick to their genre or go write for a show were this crap belongs … Signed a sci fi fan who wishes they would hire real sci fi writers to write scf fi shows so sick of garbage like this.… Expand

    I gave it 3 episodes and it's just not good enough.
    I don't mind mixing demons with a western kind of theme but it seems like tv producers try to mix demons/werewolves/vampires with all kind of other themes, it feels kind of desperate.
    As other reviewers mentioned, the dialogue is not good. It keeps irritating me, like there's something wrong with it, but I don't know exactly why.    I gave it 3 episodes and it's just not good enough.

    Like in other shows, plot development often relies on stupid behavior by one of the main characters.
    The gun is found too easily, but once Wynonna has it, she handles it carelessly, even though it's important and powerful.
    Plus, she's too trustful to a complete stranger in a bar who happens to be on the demon side.

    And, guys, listen: If you want to make any sci-fi/fantasy show, you have to have more than 3 special effects.
    THREE!
    1. Red glowing eyes
    2. Red glowing cracks (kind of) in the demons heads and also on Wynonna's gun.
    3. When demons "die" the ground opens up and swallows them.

    That's it! Come ON!
    It looks all far too low-budget. If you don't have the money, don't do sci-fi or fantasy!

    Do you remember Firefly? It was a well done blend of sci-fi and western that was far superior to this show.
    And how many seasons did it last? Yes, ONE. Think about it.    … Expand

    Very shallow and pointless story with jokey dialog. There is a market for this kind of thing, but their tastes are more conventional and probably aren't into the girl power thing. It's why the WNBA isn't popular. 2 points for the hot girl power lead (and deputy), 0 for everything else. Maybe I'll watch episode 3.

    Was hoping for a good show demons guns and etc. Forced myself to watch the first two episodes horrible acting and very childish. And for some reason all the characters act like idiots.

    The show finally hit Netflix and I figured it would be worth checking out. I had read reviews comparing the show to a worse version of Buffy the Vampire slayer. They got the worse part correct. I made it through two episodes before I gave up. The writing is terrible, I mean terrible. Stuff that is supposed to be funny just hit me as flat and trying to hard.

This is on top of the fact that the production value of the show is abysmal. The CGI, the sets, the camera work. It is all bottom basement sort of stuff.

    This show basically is in existence because the lead is a female character and there is a lesbian relationship. "Strong female" leads and gay characters basically buy the show extra positive reviews and a free pass no matter how terrible it actually is.    … Expand

    Premise sounded good but actually hard to sit through and watch.
    Storyline, acting and dialogue all sub standard.
    In short its utter crap.

    Couldn't make it to the end of the first episode, the dialogue is offensive bad, some situations are ridiculous... I started watching with the lowest expectations possible and even like that got dissapointed, I don't understand why syfy like making show this way, most of the time their show has the cheapest tacky action and drama scene and Wynonna Earp is one of those times.

    15 minutes is perhaps not much to go on, but that is how long it lasted. Though twenties girl with unruly history returns home to nowhere to confront demons literally and figuratively. The name of the place is purgatory, go figure. She is the descendant of the famous gunslinger Earp, which gives her the burden of having to kill demons that abide in the forebode to heaven and hell..

The name of the place is purgatory, go figure. She is the descendant of the famous gunslinger Earp, which gives her the burden of having to kill demons that abide in the forebode to heaven and hell.. I couldn't care less. Kanye West is the guy from the shady government agency that knows everything about the demons but despite the US having an army that could beat all the armies of all other nations put together(well more or less) it just sends one guy. I am not specifically a West lover, but his presence at least uplifts the movie.

    So let's do some demon killing but as is consistent with shows like these that is just afterthought. Though chick series are a dozen in a dime, nowadays: Van Helsing, Bounty Hunters, Z-Nation, Jessica Jones. This series is not about killing demons of course. It is a drama series in which a though chick, now wised up, finds her place among the living while she fights her hormones that tell her to bang Kanye West.
    The demons are therefor poorly done. They are simple people with red eyes being taped with fast movie effects. Cheap? Yep, cheaper that zombies and vampires even. It is possible.

    Drama people. If you like that. Have fun.    … Expand

    It’s all a bit fuzzy, but then it’s all in good fun. Television has plenty of room for strong female characters.

    If it all sounds a little by-the-numbers, it is. But part of the fun of both Westerns and pulp revenge stories is setting up the tropes to play with them later, so Wynonna Earp could just be getting a few things out of the way before the shenanigans really get started.

    The premiere episode jumps into the action and atmosphere immediately, though it takes a little while for the show settle in to what is a very fast-paced story. But by the second episode, it’s already found its rhythm.
