Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With a short run with a modest audience, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for anyone who likes to be kept guessing and sci-fi fans. If you loved Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities or The Terror, start here.
The mood: Tense.
The pace: 2 seasons: a few weeks of evenings, hour-long episodes, about 44 hours in all.
What might put you off: Rated TV-14: scary moments. Probably too much for younger kids.

The evil, sinister killer of the "Nightmare On Elm Street" movies, Freddy Krueger, hosts this show, where each week, he shows us a tale of evil and death about the lives of people who live in Springwood.
