About this show

Based on Lev Grossman's best-selling book series, "The Magicians" follows Quentin Coldwater, a highly intelligent but socially withdrawn twenty-something secretly obsessed with a series of fantasy novels he read as a child about a magical land called Fillory. Beyond that, Quentin's life is dull until he finds himself admitted to a very secret, exclusive college of magic in Upstate New York, where he receives a thorough and rigorous education in the practice of modern sorcery. However, magic doesn't bring the happiness, adventure, and meaning that he thought it would…until he and his friends discover that Fillory is real.

A fantasy were magic is real, big plot is about a fantasy series. Anybody not think of Narnia when they talked about this fantasy series? I think think who ever owns Narnia should be upset. It was ok the reason I did not like it more was the last episode kind of left me hanging. Ok so this is how it ends ? Why not finish the story are they planning on continuing?

The language is (annoyingly and poorly) censored despite no notice anywhere. All other content is as normal. Would have purchased elsewhere had I known this was basically the equivalent of a walmart version of a record with explicit content.

I paid for a whole season when Season five came out but with it's second episode being available it wants me to buy it. Is there some way to fix this or some way to contact someone to fix it? Been trying to figure out how to contact support but no luck. The show itself is great and deserves five stars.
