The Secret Circle

Out of the three new premieres I have seen this week, I thoroughly enjoyed one.  The Secret Circle starts out with a girl, Cassie, driving home as she's driving a car passes her recklessly.  She ends up popping a tire as the other car stops and takes a peek and then drives away.  Suspicious, just a bit.  Rude, terribly.  So, as she's changing her tire she calls her mother, they exchange some banter and as the mom is cooking the same car that passed Cassie is stopping in front of their house.  You hear some static and the mom's line goes dead.  As the guy gets out of his car you see him do some magic.  Water splashing comes from the sink and the stove catches fire.  The house ends up exploding with the mother caught inside.  Horrible.  Commercial.  I hate commercials by the way.  Anyways, we come back and it's a month later and Cassie has driven cross country to move in with her Grandmother.  Cassie starts school and starts meeting a bunch of people that are a part of this "circle" who practice magic.  She, slowly, begins to figure out that her parents were in a circle with the other characters parents and that it's a generational thing.  The audience comes to find out that the parents have her there for completely different reasons than the younger circle.  They want her for dark magic and the younger circle just wants her for the expanded power.

I really enjoy some of the younger generation shows.  Lying Game, Pretty Little Liars, and Make it or Break it and I think I just added another to the list.  I definitely will be watching this show again.  It's very intriguing what choice that Cassie eventually makes dark magic or light and I am, also, interested if their theory of fate is true and she will get together with the boy who already has a girlfriend.  Drama, drama, drama.
