I think it's smart, funny, and I loved the Easter Egg to Bunk'd: Learning the Ropes (another one I enjoyed) in tonight's episode, #11 - First Vampire Friend. Unashamedly a Disney fan, I love seeing the Talent these young people have. Disney "kids" have gone on to amazing careers and it's fun to watch them grow and mature. I hope they keep Vampirina around awhile; the lessons in tolerance, honesty, friendship, and not buying in to Others misconceptions or judgements are extremely valuable for young people today. Heck, for ALL people!

Extremely well produced, I feel as though I was with Juliana on her Journey; a journey that caused a bright, happy, vivacious young woman to become depressed, withdrawn, frightened for her life, and aged her 10 years in the brief time she and Blake stayed in The Community. I watched each episode, as the Real Teal showed herself; Not a pretty picture. She claims to be psychic, yet I saw none of that. I saw a woman who claims to be all about Love and Healing turn on ANYONE who questions her & systematically begin to tear them down, attack their self-worth, actually tell them to go kill themselves. Teal Swan takes NO responsibility for her actions, always, ALWAYS finding a scapegoat, blaming any and everyone for her own failures. She is a Pit Viper, hell bent on CONTROL. No Partners for her Inner Circle, no children - their crying might keep her awake and negatively impact the carefully crafted "perfection" of her appearance on camera. Teal Swan is a power mad Cult Leader, plain and simple. Basically I recommend people watch The Deep End simply to learn the Truth; to see for themselves just how enticing people and groups like Teal Swan's are, how they can lure in those "broken toys" with a promise of salvation from personal pain & trauma, then use that knowledge to control or destroy them. Like all Cult Leaders, her arrogance will be her undoing. I didn't see Mathias at the end of episode 4, I hope what he witnessed with Teal's treatment of Blake & Juliana woke him up - you can see his visible discomfort, the dawning realization of the Monster he'd been following and enabling for years - I hope he left too. As for Blake & Juliana? I wish them a long and happy life together. Hopefully, with the love and support from Juliana's family, and some time with a REAL Therapist, Teal will quickly become nothing more than an unpleasant memory.
