Parents Say

age 13+

Based on 119 parent reviews

Parents say this show is a captivating mix of supernatural drama and romance, making it a favorite for many, but opinions on its appropriateness for younger viewers are deeply divided. While some parents feel it is suitable for teens aged 12 and up due to the entertaining plot and positive themes about family and friendship, others express concern over its graphic violence, mature themes, and portrayal of unhealthy relationships, asserting that it can be harmful for impressionable youth.
