Vampire Academy is a must-watch for anyone tempted by the idea of a world of vampires touched by magic, flush with forbidden romance, and filled with vast potential.

It’s fresh, it’s smart, it’s a hell of a lot of fun, and it’s absolutely worth sinking your teeth into.

Vampire Academy remains entertaining due to its fast pace, noteworthy female leads, and twisty second half.

The show seems to want to have it both ways: to suck you into its sprawling world, with its endlessly complicated lore, while hand-waving over the world’s basic details. There are worse problems for a series to have than a surplus of storylines and ideas, and Vampire Academy‘s excess does often make for a tasty binge. It’s just not always a totally satisfying one.

Ends up intriguing enough, if also unavoidably cheesy in its attempts to stand out amongst the fray.

While there’s nothing truly terrible about Vampire Academy, there’s little about it that stands out amid today’s crop of fantastical YA dramas.

The result is a total – and entirely unoriginal – mess. Literally nothing about this show is coherent in any way. At times, it is impossible to follow, hurtling through the action and chucking about terminology we are yet to grasp; at others, it drags and is downright boring.

A series with very interesting complicated characters, gorgeous sets and intriguing plot. Exactly what you'd expect from Julie Plec.

While this is not exactly the same as the books of the same name, it is an incredibly entertaining and fun vampire series. There's no shortage of genres, including action, romance, fantasy, and political intrigue, all held together by a wonderful and compelling cast. Highly recommend it so far.

The movie is far superior. This series is boring, empty and the music is very bad. The lead actors lack personality and the story lost itself in uninteresting subplots.
And its not even funny at all.
The Strigoi look good, thats the only positive part.

You can definitely tell that no one at Peacock or anyone connected to the monstrosity has read the books. Every ounce of this was wrong. During the first book Tatiana was the only queen. Rose would have been half Turkish and half white. Dimitri was RUSSIAN and it was an important part of the books. Mia's last name was Rinaldi and she was never adopted. Sonya Karp was not adopted nor was she the same age as Rose and Lissa. Lissa's hair should have been platinum and she should have had Jade colored eyes. Victor had a biological daughter named Natalie. Victor was not married to a man. Mia was not dating a chick she had been dating Aaron in the first book. Mason's hair should have been red. Rose also was not really interested in him. And not everyone knew about Mia and Andre. It was actually a huge secret. Andre also never intended to marry Mia nor did he express any interest in marrying her. They also didn't separate Royal from non royal at the feeders. They also didn't flash different color eyes for royal or non royal.

Truly terrible. They butchered the story and every character that has been loved since the release of the amazing Vampire Academy books in 2007!!! Other fans of the books will know right away that this was not made for us. Who it was made for, I do not know, but it was NOT for us. Everything was just truly terrible, but the acting was the worst for me, especially from that Stringer girl. Don’t know how she got the role, but it can’t have been ethical. None of these people will ever be our beloved vampire academy characters, no matter how much some of you poor deluded creatures tell yourselves that you were. Thank God the true fans of these books have spoken and this abomination was cancelled.
