It’s for the teen gays who don’t have to be on edge while watching girls kiss on the TV in the family room because they are fully out and no one cares. This is very much for (and aimed at) the youths and I love that for them. This is not the vibe where it’s like “Oh, you can be a full ass adult and enjoy this little show about teens.” ( I’m looking at you Riverdale seasons 1-3) NO. It took me a few episodes to really get into the series and then I realized that although I enjoyed parts of it, this show is not for me in the slightest. It’s a sweet (and sometimes bloody) story of firsts - first times, first kills, and first loves. Not only do we follow both girls on the path to their first kill - Cal must kill her first monster to be sworn in as a true hunter, and Juliette must kill her first human in order to be placed in the matriarchal line of her vampire family - we watch them fall in love. It follows the story of Calliope (Cal), a monster killer in training who comes from a line of hunters and Juliette, a vampire from a long line of legacy vamps who are damn near impossible to kill. I’ve been excited about this show forever, when I first heard the news I set a Google alert and tracked it along the way. Okay, so my first thought when watching First Kill was “Oh, this is gay GAY” This First Kill review contains mild spoilers.
