Is Grimm good?

The creators have earlier made shows like Buffy and Angle. Grimm has some high standards to live up to, and it does so remarkably well.

This Show is a kind of modern take on the Grimm`s fairytales. Grimm is especially worth watching if you like modern fantasy and police shows.

Why is Grimm recommended?

Grimm is also a serious and exiting supernatural show. One of the supernatural creatures called Wesen is very similar to werewolves, but werewolves are not exactly the main focus of the show.

Grimm is more of a supernatural police detective show than Bitten. It also has a more episodic structure, at least in the first seasons. But both shows probably have a big overlap in their audience.

If you like Bitten, then you Grimm is a good show to check out next.

Why: supernatural

Is Killjoys good?

Killjoys is an exiting space western kind of show. Character development can sometimes take second place to world-building. Personally I would prefer more focus on character development, but the story is stellar.

Initially, it reminded me a little of Firefly, only not as good. But even if it is not as good as Firefly it is still a must-see show for science-fiction fans.

Why is Killjoys recommended?

Killjoys is a science-fiction show. It does not really have many direct similarities to Bitten, but its a very good show and it have a slightly similar feel to it.

But as if that was not enough, there are also werewolf hunters out there.

Is Teen Wolf good?

I like it. I think it is better than similar shows like Vampires Diary. If you like other teen paranormal shows then you will most likely like this one too.

Why is Teen Wolf recommended?

Teen Wolf is also about werewolves. The main difference is that it has a younger highschool age cast. But if you don't mind teen shows and like Bitten, then Teen Wolf is a good show.

The Original is a spin-off where we follow the original vampire family from The Vampire Diaries.

They are known as the first vampires and the ancestor of all existing vampires.

Is The Originals good?

I find this spin-off to actually be better than the original series. The reason for this is probably that it is not as teen-focused as the Vampire Diary.

Why is The Originals recommended?

The Originals and Bitten are both tense and exiting supernatural shows. The Originals also has werewolves, but it has a bigger focus on vampires.

Why: supernatural
Why not: vampires
