This not a heavy and dark program. It is a bit like the first few Harry Potter films, gears towards young viewers, or adults that enjoy fantasy and don't expect dark sinister heavy threats. It can be dark and sinister, but it does it with a light touch. It's delightful.
There are elves, fairies, a halfling professor, mother and father were not both magical, like Harry Potter. There is a teenage girl, very non magical human, who accidentally becomes magical and must gain the trust of the magical teens and adults she meets. Eventually, something else accidentally happens, and she becomes a mega powerful magic person, instilling fear in some of the adult magical people. The elves are the worst. Sorry if there are any elves out there. No offense is meant. The fairies are quite sweet about things. One elf, who reminds me of an imaginary offspring of Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger. If you have not seen or read Harry Potter, it would be a teenager with the an ambition for power and intelligence (Draco lacked intelligence).
This is not a Harry Potter spinoff/ripoff. It is an Australian television series with good and bad magical people and I suspect good and bad non magical people. Not muggles though. That would be Harry Potter's world.
Four more episodes for season 1.
I'm watching this on Netflix.

A delightful story. Now for season two.
