Shadowhunters | comment |
Shadowhunters is a Freeform series based on the novel series The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare. It was the second attempt to adapt the books after the ill-fated 2013 film adaptation.Eighteen-year-old Clary Fray finds out on her birthday that she is not who she thinks, rather, she comes from a long line of Shadowhunters — human-angel hybrids who hunt down demons. When her mother Jocelyn is kidnapped, Clary is thrown into the world of demon hunting with mysterious Shadowhunter Jace and her best friend, Simon. Now living among faeries, warlocks, vampires and werewolves, Clary begins a journey of self-discovery as she learns more about her past and what her future may hold.The show stars Katherine McNamara as Clary Fray and Dominic Sherwood as Jace Herondale. Also in the main cast are Alberto Rosende as Simon Lewis, Emeraude Toubia as Isabelle Lightwood, Matthew Daddario as Alec Lightwood, Isaiah Mustafa as Luke Garroway, Harry Shum Jr. as Magnus Bane, and Alisha Wainwright as Maia Roberts.Like the film, the show was produced by Constatin Film and McG (Joseph McGinty Nichol), but with Ed Decter as showrunner. A 13-episode straight-to-series order was announced on March 30, 2015, the show began filming in Toronto, Ontario on May 25th, 2015, and the series eventually premiered on January 12th, 2016. After three seasons, the show was cancelled in 2018, but an additional two episodes were ordered to give closure.While the film is a straight adaptation of the first book, the show is more of a Pragmatic Adaptation of the series. Some events have been repurposed or changed entirely, and characters are switched around, with roles being given to new or other characters. That said, it still follows the general plot of the books.Teaser trailers can be viewed here and here. Officially released sneak peaks of the first episode can be viewed here and here.Outside of the United States, new episodes are available worldwide on Netflix. | |

Alec and Jace are both seen shirtless numerous times, usually in Workout Fanservice scenes.

So of course he ends up shirtless and sweaty, panting, grimacing, and arching off the bed he lay down on. | |

The Purge: In the season 2 mid-season finale, Valentine uses the Soul Sword — which Jace accidentally activated — to kill every Downworlder in the room (though Simon manages to survive). Fortunately, he quickly loses the sword, but now relations between Shadowhunters and Downworlders are most strained than ever. | |

Heterosexual Life-Partners: Being parabatai is the Shadowhunter version of this: It means that two warriors fight together as one, with their hearts beating in unison. When one dies, the other immediately knows it. Jace claims that it's stronger than any human bond, but Clary counters that she has the same kind of bond with Simon. | |

Parents as People | |
Shadowhunters / int_20989d05 | comment |
Parents as People: Maryse and Robert Lightwood are this. While they are not abusive parents, their preoccupation with the Clave and their status within it tends to cause them to behave poorly towards their children even during those times when they are not absent. Maryse in particular tends to recite "I was following orders" so often that Alec finally stops accepting that as an excuse and tells her outright that it no longer means anything. They also have a troubled marriage, a fact which they try to conceal. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Shadowhunters / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: In "This World Inverted": Alternate-universe Luke says in a So Bad, It's Good commercial that Magnus helped him realize the police force wasn't his calling but running an antique bookshop. In the books, Luke is a bookseller rather than an officer. Alternate-universe Magnus has two cats named Chairman Meow and Church. In the books, Chairman Meow is Magnus's kitten, whose birthday party gets crashed by the main charactersnote Yes, the kitten's birthday party, not Magnus's, and Church is the resident cat at the New York Institute. Alt!Simon plans to ask Alt!Isabelle to marry him, reflecting the relationship between their book counterparts. When looking at profiles of warlocks around the world in "Malec", one of the profiles that can be seen is Theresa Gray. Tessa Gray was the protagonist of The Mortal Instruments spinoff The Infernal Devices. Magnus also mentions someone named Tessa in "Raising Hell." In "Dead Man's Party", Clary compares her bond with Simon to the bond between parabatai. In the books, she and Simon did eventually become parabatai. | |

Lie to the Beholder | |
Shadowhunters / int_2b912002 | comment |
Lie to the Beholder: The Shadowhunters have a rune allowing them to take on the appearance of another person. It is first demonstrated in "Bad Blood," when Lydia Branwell arrives in disguise as Valentine to test the Institute's reaction. Later, it plays a more significant role when Jace's father "Michael Wayland" turns out to be Valentine in disguise. Clary used the same or a similar rune to disguise an ordinary coffee mug as the Mortal Cup. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Season 3; both Lilith and Jonathan are defeated, Asmodeus has been banned to Limbo, Edom has been destroyed entirely (though other realms of Hell remain), most characters are in happy couples, and with Alec as the Inquisitor, Magnus as the High Warlock of Alicante and Isabel as the head of the Institute, Shadowhunters are finally improving their treatment of Downworlders. However, Clary had to sacrifice her Shadowhunter powers and all her memory from the Shadow World in order to defeat Jonathan, forcing her back to a normal life and taking her away from Jace, not to mention the many casualties Jonathan did in his rampages. | |

Unresolved Sexual Tension: As in the books, between Clary and Jace; it's resolved at the beginning of "Blood Calls to Blood", but then goes back to unresolved again after The Reveal that they are brother and sister. Magnus and Alec have this played up, with the latter in denial about his feelings for most of the season. It's resolved in the penultimate episode in this case. | |

Shadowhunters / int_557838d1 | comment |
Adaptational Attractiveness: In the books Hodge Starkweather is described as a thin man with a long, beaky nose who looks older than he is (which is around 36 according to Word of God). Hodge is played by the handsome and youthful-looking Jon Cor.invoked Clary to a lesser extent. She's very I Am Not Pretty in the books, and the narrative doesn't describe her too flatteringly. Katherine McNamara is extremely glamorous. Though it is helped by the Age Lift, since Clary is now a confident young adult instead of an awkward teenager. | |

Alternate Reality Episode | |
Shadowhunters / int_5b973520 | comment |
Alternate Reality Episode: 1x10 - "This World Inverted" - sees Clary go to an alternate universe where there are no demons or Shadowhunters and Downworlders live mundane lives. Her mother and the villain of the series, Valentine, are Happily Married, and Clary herself is in a healthy relationship with Jace, who runs a smoothie store. Simon and Izzy are also happily together, and Alec is a borderline Camp Gay party planner who is assertive about his interest in Magnus. The colouring of the episode is noticeably more vibrant. Throughout the episode, Clary is in danger of being "absorbed" by the alternate reality and forgetting her original existence. | |

Kangaroo Court | |
Shadowhunters / int_5d3e7c6 | comment |
Kangaroo Court: The Clave is really into this trope. In particular the role of prosecutor and judge is seemingly held by one individual whose personal opinions carry more weight than any other factor. Lydia is just a symbolic prosecutor at Izzy's trial, with the Inquisitor making it quite clear that she is inclined to judge the case on her feelings. Likewise, when Jace is on trial with the Mortal Sword to compel answers from him, Aldertree carefully selects and phrases the questions asked so as to make him look as guilty as possible. No other judge beside Aldertree himself is present and Jace gets no defense attorney. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
Shadowhunters / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: The series follows the same basic story as the novels, but with setting changes and plot developments revealed in a significantly different order. Clary's mother tries to proactively tell her about her heritage and the associated dangers on her birthday (foiled by Clary rushing out the door) in contrast to the books, where she struggles to keep Clary in the dark until the villain strikes, even though she knows the ruse is crumbling and her daughter is in danger. The Shadowhunters use significantly more modern technology than their book counterparts. Their base includes banks of high-tech equipment and computer displays to quickly convey the sense of a bustling, organized agency in a visual medium. The circumstances of Simon’s vampire encounter and kidnapping was changed to be deliberate on the part of the vampires, in contrast to the book’s tangent involving the main characters crashing a party and running afoul of a magical party trick. By Season 2, they've pretty much ditched the books entirely. | |

Homoerotic Subtext: The Parabati bond between Alec and Jace is full of it. Despite Jace being Clary's love interest, he and Alec get far more scenes that are rather like lovers quarrelling. This is lampshaded more than once. Of course since Alec is actually gay and did harbor feelings for Jace it's rather justified. | |

Off with His Head!: In 2x20, Malachi tries to have Clary and Jace beheaded to prevent them interfering with Valentine’s plan to call on Raziel to annihilate all Downworlders. Fortunately, Jace is able to break free just as Malachi’s goon is lifting the axe to take Clary’s head. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! | |
Shadowhunters / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: In the episode "Raising Hell", the protagonists and Magnus Bane summon a memory demon - containing it in a bond they form by linking hands, but each of them has to give up a memory of "the one they love the most" in order to get Clary's memories from the demon. Alec freaks out when he has to give up the memory of Jace, since he's desperate to deny any sort of romantic attraction. He breaks the bond, despite Magnus' explicit instructions not to do that. This forces Clary to kill the Memory Demon to save Jace, costing her the chance of recovering her memories. In "By the Light of Dawn", Jace grabs the Soul Sword thinking that he had demon blood that would destroy the sword (and himself in the process), preventing Valentine from being able to use it to massacre the Downworlders. He actually has pure angel blood in him, rather than demon blood, meaning he unwittingly activated the sword and allowed Valentine to carry out his murderous plot. Valentine quickly loses the Soul Sword, but not before using it to kill every Downworlder that was currently in the Institute. | |

Interspecies Romance: Alec, a Shadowhunter, and Magnus, a warlock as well as Izzy, a Shadowhunter and Meliorn, a seelie. Relationships between Downworlders and Shadowhunters are highly frowned upon. (See Fantastic Racism above.) Luke, a werewolf, and Jocelyn, a Shadowhunter. Season 2 has two vampire/Shadowhunter relationships- Clary and Simon and Izzy and Raphael. Season 3 has a very short romance between Izzy, a shadowhunter, and Charlie Cooper, a mundane, as well as a frowned-upon romance between Simon, a vampire, and Maia, a werewolf. | |

Back from the Dead | |
Shadowhunters / int_8967e17f | comment |
Back from the Dead: Clary, in hopes of bringing her mother back from the grave, goes to a warlock who's willing to perform dark magic to do the job in exchange for a favor. Clary calls the ritual off, but the warlock, Iris, insists that Clary still owes her a favor. In the season 2 finale Jace is killed by Valentine, but Clary brings him back by making a wish to the angel Raziel. In season 3, Lilith's goal is to resurrect Jonathan. In the finale of season 3 Clary resurrects Valentine with a rune — only to kill him before he can leave Idris to do more damage. | |

Our Fairies Are Different | |
Shadowhunters / int_90d5b651 | comment |
Our Fairies Are Different: The fairies in the show are known as Seelies. They are among the Downworlder species (species that are part demon) and have the distinction of also being part angel. They cannot tell lies, but are still considered untrustworthy. Meliorn is a Seelie that has an affair with Isabelle and helps Clary and Jace open a portal to another dimension in "The World Inverted". Of course, Genre Savvy audience members will know the Seelies might not be the totality of The Fair Folk in the Shadowhunters universe, as their mere existence implies the possibility that the Unseelies also exist, although no mention of them, or how they might differ from the Seelies, has been made on the show so far. | |

Took a Level in Badass: Simon spends a lot of season 1 needing to be rescued, but by mid-season 2 he's a skilled fighter and more than capable of defending himself. Clary, as well, goes from an Action Survivor to a capable fighter. Neither of them is as skilled as the more experienced Shadowhunters and other non-mundanes they meet, but they've both come into their own quite nicely. | |

Foreshadowing: In the Pilot, Simon sings a song about living forever, hinting at his eventual transformation into a vampire. In "Dust and Shadows" the assistant who answers the door for Clary and Alec is heavily pregnant. The warlock she works for is using human women to breed more warlocks by forcing them to mate with demons. In "Those of Demon Blood", Jace briefly encounters one of his past flings, a Seelie named Kaelie, who's incredibly pissed off at him for some reason. At the end of the episode it's revealed that Kaelie has been murdering Shadowhunters and taking their runes as trophies because her brother died after Jace activated the Soul Sword. | |

Adults Are Useless: While they mean well, the adults of the Institute tend to get in the way more than they help because of their very strict adherence to their laws. The younger characters are the ones that are actually getting close to stopping Valentine by bending some of the more restrictive laws. This is averted by Luke - who proves very useful. And Jocelyn too, since the majority of conflict involves rescuing her so she can help them. Lydia eventually proves to be an asset to the Shadowhunters too. | |

Shadowhunters / int_b032e4ed | comment |
Ms. Fanservice: At Pandemonium in the first episode, both Isabelle and the demon girl wear very tight, revealing outfits. Isabelle even drops her coat and does a dance to distract the nearby demons.note This is in sharp contrast to the books, where her outfit in the equivalent scene is notably conservative. For much of the first episode, Clary wears a see-through mesh top with a black bra underneath. At the end of the episode, she changes into a black leather mini-dress with thigh-high boots, courtesy of Isabelle. Isabelle bags another example when she seduces a Seelie for information in episode 3. Meliorn, her on-again, off-again boyfriend, is shirtless, and she gets a Lingerie Scene in a red bra and matching panties and later shows some Toplessness from the Back when they have sex. | |

Simon calls her once in season 2 and that's it. Lydia disappears early in season 2 after being injured by a demon. Reportedly, the writers wanted to keep her around but the actress had other commitments. | |

Shout-Out | |
Shadowhunters / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In "The Mortal Cup" when discussing Jocelyn’s overprotectiveness towards Clary, Simon compares the situation to the scene from Aliens where the alien queen was defending her eggs from Ripley. Clary also refers to the Shadowhunters as a "supernatural fight club." "The Descent Into Hell Isn’t Easy": Simon refers to Jace as a Mick Jagger-looking guy. Clary calls Jace an emotionless G.I. Joe. "This World Inverted": Clary mentions Toto and not being in Kansas anymore. "You wouldn't like me when I'm angry." Simon refers to himself as Nerdferatu. Clary´s surname is similar to a certain vampire slayer living in Manhattan in the future. Clary Fray is also a Manhattan native. Jocelyn´s maiden name is Fairchild. Both Jocelyn and Clary are redheads, as is Caitlin Fairchild. | |

Hairstyle Inertia: Both Jocelyn and Luke are shown with the exact same hairstyles in flashbacks to their youth. Clary too in a flashback has the same curly style as in the present. However another flashback shows her getting her memories erased while she has a fringe. We're shown child and teenage versions of Jace and Alec. Both of Jace's have the same slicked back style he has in the present. Alec's child self has the same style as his adult counterpart, but the teenager's one is slightly different. | |

Luke, I Am Your Father: In the episode "The Descent Into Hell Isn't Easy" Clary finds out that her father didn't actually die and is actually Valentine Morgenstern. Nine episode later in "Blood Calls To Blood", Jace finds out his father "Michael Wayland" is actually Valentine as well, who was in disguise. Clary tries to invoke this with Luke while he's telling her about his past in "Of Men And Angels". He gives her a long look and reminds her that while he and Jocelyn were in love while she was still married to Valentine, they would have known if he was her father. | |

Beethoven Was an Alien Spy: In the episode "Raising Hell", Isabelle claims that David Guetta is a vampire. The Seelie Queen claims to have mentored Sia and Björk, as well as having met David Bowie which sounds as if he is part of the Downworld too. Given, that the Institute has pictures and statues of Beethoven and Bach scattered across the building, they seem to have adapted the notion that both were Shadowhunters, which is mentioned in the movie. | |

Intimate Marks | |
Shadowhunters / int_f7f8c062 | comment |
Intimate Marks: Clary and Izzy have Shadowhunter rune tattoos near or on their breasts (in fact, one is shared on both of Izzy's, plus between them), as displayed when they wear low-cut tops (which is often) and occasionally less. Maia has a butterfly tattoo that is... well-hidden (heavily implied to be somewhere one won't see with all of her clothes on). | |

Beauty Is Bad | |
Shadowhunters / int_f829585a | comment |
Beauty Is Bad: A rule of thumb when it comes to dealing with Seelies. Their extremely beautiful appearance hides their vicious nature. | |

Superdickery: The trailers for "Love is a Devil" show Clary telling Alec she hates him for his (possession-induced) murder of Jocelyn and Maryse attempting to kill Jace for having demon blood. In the episode, it's revealed that neither of these things actually happened. They were hallucinations resulting from a spell that manifested people's fears. | |

Running Gag | |
Shadowhunters / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: The minor Shadowhunter character Raj suffers a recurring fate as a Butt-Monkey. If he appears in an episode he is usually manhandled by one of the main characters, possessed by a demon, having his attempts to score a threesome interrupted, etc. Magnus and Alec getting interrupted. | |

You Killed My Father | |
Shadowhunters / int_fb6b207f | comment |
You Killed My Father: In "Those of Demon Blood", a Seelie named Kaelie murders numerous Shadowhunters and tries to make it look like there's a Downworlder uprising because her brother was killed in Valentine's massacre in "By the Light of Dawn". | |

Shadowhunters / int_fd8e3e9d | comment |
World of Action Girls: Isabelle, who combines a Femme Fatale aesthetic with being a highly skilled warrior. Clary too once she gets the hang of using the weapons. Notably in the book, Jace killed the demon in her apartment. In the show, Clary does it herself. Lydia, who is able to hold off Raj who is possessed by a demon at this point, and punches him quite a few times. | |
