Penny Dreadful

This all sounds great

I enjoy the mystery minority men this show seems to be fond of. First we had mysterious black guy with a waffle ironed face, now we have mysterious apache guy who can visit your dreams by smoking a pipe.

Only question is when will a cocaine addled Sherlock Holmes show up? Which of course he'll show up with his partner Dr. Watson with him, who will somehow also be the Invisible man.

Sherlock Holmes may not appear as he isn't a supernatural character. Although I could see him having a cameo if they encounter something like the Hound of the Baskervilles.

True, but I could see him fitting in with Dr. Frankenstein and Hyde, who aren't supernatural and are more just about esoteric science.

Then perhaps even seeing him confront an eventual supernatural entity and how he'd handle it would also be interesting.

But it's doubtful we'll actually see him. I'm still not sure who the main villain will be. Either Dracula or maybe Ethan's father I guess. All I know is the dude who played "William Stryker" in the X-Men sequel X2 is playing his father this season.

Thought Holmes was an opium and/or heroine guy?

Dracula's the main this season, though I guess you could say he's been behind the scenes since season one.

Brian Cox? Awesome, he's a talented actor.

Getting really tired of the Frankenstein bullshit. All of the plot-lines dealing with Frankenstein and his monsters are an absolute bore. Which is a shame considering the rest of the plot-lines are really interesting.

shows needs more nudity

And more blood. Or more blood and nudity together... oh wait, we had that. 😉

He liked his cocaine and his morphine. But it'd be funnier to just see him strung out on cocaine. BTW Watson used cocaine too lol, just not as much.

To be fair though the use of cocaine was a lot more widespread at the time, but it's still funny. There was a time people put cocaine in pretty much everything. So I guess the past wasn't 100% shitty.

Why is it every season they have one entire episode devoted completely to Miss Ives? These episodes always suck.

Because she's the focal character and all the stories somehow tie into her own?

I guess, but I just find them terrible. I guess the end when Lucifer and Dracula were talking to each other was cool.

Yeah it dragged on a bit. But Lucifer en Dracula together were pretty neat.

Latest episode was good, I'm beginning to like the witch character.

Well... not much more left to like. ;-)

I like season 3 better than season 2...

5/10 finale

Euh??? Please elaborate? Bad final episode?

Sad that it's over. It was such a good show.
