Season 1 Review:
Narrative bagginess swallows all the story’s oxygen and blows it out as stale air: It squanders precious opportunities to develop compelling antagonists—and that lack of complexity is even more unfortunate given that the three leads are so charismatic and well-cast.

Season 1 Review:
The types are all pretty obvious and plot turns are telegraphed well in advance, yet the show fails to clearly explain what is going on in this alternate America. The witchiness of the young women is even underplayed to a frustrating degree until late in the premiere episode.

Season 1 Review:
At its best, the series is wildly ambitious and gorgeously otherworldly, with flying drug trips, strength-enhancing orgies and brilliantly novel aesthetics, especially in its marriage between military chic and Goth motifs. But it is rarely at its best. Fort Salem leans early and heavily into its most familiar, least interesting storyline.

This show is fantastic, fresh, with themes that almost no show has. I love the fact that the protagonists are women and one of them is gay! and that does not define it in the show.

Not what I was expecting at all. It has a good story and the main cast is really good in their roles. The stellar MVP is the musical score. Great original music.
