Without Eva Green's deliciously tortured Vanessa, this new evolution can't possibly be as good. But I'll give it a fair go just in case.

UPDATE 2nd July 2020
Okay, so I've finished watching the whole series now and I'm hoping they don't make a second. This wasn't a patch on the original and I found Dormer's characters rather hammy and annoying. The themes 'explored' in this series seem all too familiar right now, repeated over and over in many other shows. I suppose it ticks all the boxes for millennials, but they aren't watching anyway. What's wrong with just telling a story? On a positive note, I did enjoy the concept of Elsa and her son, Frank.

Spoiler alert:
[spoiler] I think it would have been more faithful to the original series if they had instead chosen to use multiple actors to play the roles inhabited by Natalie Dormer's demon, perhaps using subtle vehicles to gradually tip viewers off over the story arc until we discover the coordinated plot to expose the inherent discord, conflict and misery in humanity (do we really ever need any help with that?). We could have seen a proxy battle between good and evil played out between characters possessed by the two angels/demons. I suppose they must have decided it would be too confusing to continue with the possession theme from the original series if they spread it across multiple characters, but would we really need to know that until the lame ending anyway?[/spoiler]
