## What critics say

Viewers found Wynonna Earp a quirky, offbeat mix of supernatural horror and contemporary Western that was fun early on, with a loyal fan following, though the tone shifted toward preachy social messaging in later seasons.

## Synopsis

Wynonna Earp (2016-2021) is a Canadian-American supernatural western series created by Emily Andras for Syfy. Melanie Scrofano plays Wynonna Earp, great granddaughter of the outlaw lawman Wyatt Earp, who battles demons and revenants with her unique abilities and a posse of dysfunctional allies. Dominique Provost-Chalkley co-stars as her younger sister Waverly, whose bond with Wynonna gives the show its emotional anchor, while Tim Rozon plays the charming Doc Holliday. Each episode pairs a paranormal threat with the ongoing pressure of a family curse, so monsters keep surfacing in a small frontier town that seems to be stuck between the Old West and the present day. The show runs four seasons and forty-nine episodes, blending a horror-tinged tone with sharp, irreverent banter and a steady undercurrent of romance and loyalty. Its mix of gunplay, sly humor, and inherited legend makes it a fun pick for fans of Supernatural and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, who enjoy monster-of-the-week action with a serialized mythology and a strong female lead.
