A young man eager for revenge enrolls in a university dominated by a secret society, where the supernatural is part of everyday life.
A series about the supernatural and teenagers and spells and werewolves. Quite common these days, especially in the world of such a strong Young Adult books mania. And yet The Order deserves a bit more. With a somewhat unlikeable main character and a production team that doesn't seem to be aware of the principle of retakes (many scenes seem filmed and wrapped up from the first try), the series doesn't seem to promise much, but the clever and bantery dialogue, the rest of the much more captivating and well developed characters as well as their fun interaction make one's patience over a somewhat slow start damn worthwhile.
If Netflix (or the screenwriters) had figured out in good time what the focus of the story should be, maybe The Order wouldn't have been canceled after only 2 seasons.
