I have been dying for something to dvr for Saturday nights and while ‘Being Human BBC’ is my favorite Brit show ‘The Fades’ has saved me with the premiere of its first season in America. Its premise is this: people die and some pass over but some do not. We have legends of evil spirits and disgruntled departed that are both drown and compelled by the living. So what happens when they become so bitter and angered by there death that they look for ways back into our world? Simple – death becomes life and life becomes death. We fall in ashes and the dead rule realities eternal.
The first episode does the traditional and sets the tone for the season by introducing the main players and the fades which are the dead ones that don’t pass over into the light. Now comes the salvation. Throw in awkward teen with supernatural abilities who has to deal with being a social outcast and the responsibility of saving our world from destruction. I love it. It delves into the whole origin of evil spirit and resurrection that I am a sucker for. This show is a great one to keep up with and has saved my Saturdays.
