I really liked it. Wasn't so keen on Glenister's American accent though.

Could have been good but the talented and beautiful Zoe Tapper was wasted playing a blind girl, Glenister's accent irritated and the writing was substander, get Joss Whedon and Anthony Head in and turn it into Watcher (buffy spin off.

It had it faults and it would be ridiculous to deny that. However I think that it showed a lot of promise. Where they went wrong is so obvious it's glaring in their faces. Once they sort that out they could have a hit on their hands as long as they have the guts to give the show a chance to find an audience.

I really liked the show and would love another season! I think everyone was great and I enjoyed this TV show much much more than other ones. This is one of my favorites this year. Thank you for Demons!!!!!!! Please make more episodes!

I liked Demons even though sometimes it was silly. If it will get a second series I think it would improve.

I agree with you on that, as much I almost anything from the UK, this is one of the times that I don't, plus I think it is ripping off the SF Channel's series, Sanctuary. I seriously hope that Primeval comes back soon.

Yes, it had promise, but from what I read somewhere there will be no more episodes. Philip Glenister/Rupert Galvin has refused to do any more episodes.

Glennister's American accent was really grating. Did I mention that his accent was really annoying? Really annoying! I wonder, are Brits as irritated by Americans doing British accents? But here it wasn't just his accent. He was supposed to be "cold & stern" but he came off as pompous and uncaring. He's supposed to be a good actor, but you can't tell it by this show.

I seem to recall other British portrayals of Americans as arrogant. Is that the stereotype?

The best thing about Demons was the opening song. Anybody know the title and band?
