Everyone has those shows that they don't like to or want to admit they watch. Watching bad television is one of my guilty pleasures. I am so entertained by the completely unrealistic plots. So naturally, I was super pumped when MTV premiered their new series Eye Candy this year. Don't get me wrong I love MTV shows. I am a complete Teen Wolf lover and who can resist this season of the Real World and the Challenge. Although at its start I was unsure about Eye Candy it quickly has become one of my must watch shows... and not as a guilty pleasure. I really enjoy watching the mystery unfold each week.
The show is an adaptation of R.L Stine's novel of the same name. To me when a book can be transformed onto film successfully then there is nothing better and Eye Candy does that.
The show follows Lindy (Victoria Justice), a computer genius that dropped out of MIT when her sister was kidnapped right in front of her. Now Lindy, a talented hacker, is working with the police to help solve cyber crimes. And mostly importantly find the "Flirtual" (their version of tinder) killer who has been stalking her and other women in NYC.
The rest of the cast includes Lindy's best friend and roommate Sophia (Kiersey Clemons), Sophia's best friend Connor (John Garet Stoker), and police officer Tommy Calligan (Casey Jon Deirdrick).
Each episode is packed with the series mystery, a weekly cyber crimes case, and some romance and comedy thrown in as well. Victoria Justice says Eye Candy "Is this very creepy game of cat and mouse."
The twisted thriller airs on Mondays at 10pm ET but you can get caught up on MTV's youtube page.
Here are some gifs of the show to get you through the day:
