Season one of Hex, comprised of 6 episodes made in 2004 follows the story of a young girl named Cassie, who attends a private bording school in England, Medenham Hall.

Advantages: Good supernatral series,unique Disadvantages: Not very deep
I wasnt sure what i was going to make of hex,it was said to be the english version of buffy so that sounded like something for me.
It starts with too friends at a boarding school one is a lesbian i guess it adds intrest and the other is kind of sweet,more conservative and her mother is in a mental hospital,she starts getting some odd visions and meets astrange man on the school grounds shortly after she sees the man murder her best friend but doest seem sure if its real or not, it is real and soon she realises she is in great danger from him as he claims to be a angel gone bad luckily as her supernatrual abilities develop she is able to see her murdered friend as a ghost and the two set out to stop him.

A series about witchcraft, magic, sex and a fight between good and evil it is not to be missed!

A shy, timid girl, she finds herself at the mercy of the school jocks, suffering taunts and humiliation at her attitude ...
