On her birthday, Clary Fray discovers a surprise concerning her life. The teenager is not who she thinks she is -- she comes from a long line of human-angel hybrids, called Shadowhunters, who hunt demons. After her mother is kidnapped, Clary is thrust into the world of demon-hunting. Clary relies on mysterious Jace and fellow hunters Isabelle and Alec to help her navigate the dark world. While living in this new world among creatures like vampires and werewolves, Clary's best friend Simon helps her uncover answers that could help her find her mother. The fantasy show is based on a series of young adult books by Cassandra Clare.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Shadowhunters boasts visual thrills and a potential-rich premise, but they're not enough to overcome the show's self-serious silliness and dull, convoluted plots.

Lincee Ray Entertainment Weekly For the most part, I was able to go with the flow and enjoy the ride. Even if it did cover a ton of information in a short amount of time. Nov 20, 2017 Full Review James Poniewozik New York Times "Shadowhunters" has its assets, especially its popular source material. But it might become more fun if it learns to enjoy being the empowerment fantasy it really is. Nov 20, 2017 Full Review Keith Uhlich Hollywood Reporter Not one punch or stab lands with any real force. Nov 20, 2017 Full Review Chris Hansell Cultured Vultures Every moment we're supposed to care, or worry about a character's fate, we're left cold because the characters are hollow. Oct 4, 2019 Full Review Jordan Alsaqa TV Equals Shadowhunters has been an incomprehensible show, one that never offered enough to pull the uninitiated in. Maybe the show will find a better path in its second season, but I don't imagine there'll be many disillusioned viewers returning to find out. Mar 21, 2019 Full Review Kaitlin Thomas TV.com The series is trying to do far too much, too quickly in an effort to stand out. It's too bad then that it's having the opposite effect.

Isla C I read the books first, which i really recommend ( Shadowhunters: mortal instruments by Cassandra Claire) and while there were many differences they still managed to weave in all the big plot ideas and still made it interesting. I was really hooked and overall really enjoyed it, i binged it whenever i could. The first season took a while to get into because of the effects, but these dramatically improved in the other seasons as the designers and actors got more comfortable in their roles and their audience grew! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review tasneem p It’s a great show. tv shows can never be better than the books there’s too much left out so do not compare. This show left me wanting more. It has a bit of everything we experience in life ,love, drama , fantasy.. etc so watch it with an open mind. Definitely worth reviving Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/03/24 Full Review Tom G Good show, acting could have been better but a really good watch overall Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/11/23 Full Review S&L T I love how all the actors brought something to the characters that they played the romance was something new for me but I loved it the action and the turn of events that they had in all of the seasons were amazing and I wish there is more seasons. that 3 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/23 Full Review Abraham M Terrible script leads to terrible acting. Kat McNamara is one of the worst actresses I've seen played any role. She's lifeless and her acting skills are plain. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/30/23 Full Review Shohreh T Awful & boring. Bad plot, ill-written scripts, and sufferable acting. Kat McNamara (Clary) and Dominic Sherwood (Jace) cannot act. I just made an account merely to say how disgracefully awful this show is. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
