| I watched the pilot, on you tube, and at times it was good and at other times it was bad, and being so english and in that time period, and with the gross things they will show on regularity, I doubt I can watch this.
I like eva too, sadly she mainly does english shows, and movies, and then something stupid like 300.
the best scene in the pilot was with her and the cowboy , then at the end when she tells him to pick a card. also the first scene with them was pretty good.
The main guy is ok, but dr Frankenstein sort of ruins it , and then with his creation at end that was just silly and kinda gross.
So I might try one or 2 more, as pilots rarely show what the show will be like.
Orphan black is one of the best english shows I have ever seen, I dont like the gay stuff, but as a rule english shows and movies I just dont care for. | |

As far as I know, Orphan Black isn't an English show. It's Canadian. But I agree, I don't need all the gay stuff all the time. But that's not typical for British TV, at least not more than for U.S. TV, where it seems to be necessary these days for reasons of political correctness ... As a result watching TV today one could think that at least 50% of the population are gay ...  | |

Well the show is on bbc america, is that not british?,,,I looked up the main ones and they are all canadian so your right it is probably a canadian show, and they have a channel called bbc america? The young girl kira was in 3 alphas, I think as summer daughter. she was in Carrie too which I saw but did not notice her. So that explains why I like it , it is not british !lol. About the gay stuff, I dont mind some of it, but dont care to see them kiss or have sex. In this show they had the one ep with his butt pants uggh ! and his black BF is just gross. dbl uggh ! Tatiana is 28 or 29? | |

| Well think I have to cancel this one, The end of # 4 was funny but at the same time not what I want to see in a show.
Also too many things are grotesque.
the frank #1 was funny in all he did at the theater. | |

| Penny Dreadful - Renewed for a 2nd Season
SHOWTIME has picked up a second season of its critically acclaimed drama series PENNY DREADFUL, it was announced today by David Nevins, President, Showtime Networks Inc. The network has given an expanded order of ten episodes to the series. Created, written and executive produced by three-time Oscar® nominee John Logan, PENNY DREADFUL has been embraced by the network’s subscribers, drawing 4.8 million weekly viewers across platforms since its launch. The series, which debuted to rave reviews, has claimed the spot as the network’s No. 1 watched new show ever on SHOWTIME ON DEMAND® and SHOWTIME ANYTIME® with over 3.6 million viewers on those platforms through the third week of the season. Starring Josh Hartnett, Timothy Dalton and Eva Green, PENNY DREADFUL will go into production, and will once again shoot on location in Dublin, Ireland for a 2015 launch.
“Picking up PENNY DREADFUL was one of the easiest decisions I’ve made,” said Nevins. “The series has had worldwide impact, drawing big, passionate audiences on both sides of the Atlantic, and more than any other show on our network has hit the bullseye with viewers who want to watch television in all the new ways that are available. John Logan has deftly created an epic series that has drawn raves from a wide-range of audiences from quality drama lovers to critics, to hardcore genre fans. We look forward to working once again with our partners at Sky Atlantic and are extremely excited for what’s in store for season two.”
PENNY DREADFUL’s series premiere was sampled early across online, On Demand and authenticated platforms, and the debut episode now ranks as the biggest sneak preview ever and the largest online streaming sampling ever for SHOWTIME, surpassing RAY DONOVAN and MASTERS OF SEX’s premieres by half a million viewers through the premiere week.
PENNY DREADFUL is not only a hit in the United States, but has also attracted an early global audience, debuting as the second-highest-rated launch for an original commission ever for Sky Atlantic, and also ranked as the second biggest program of the week in pay TV homes for the premiere episode in the U.K. Additionally, the John Logan created world of PENNY DREADFUL has inspired unprecedented interest with a wide range of licensees. Special edition classic horror books boxed sets, cast action figures, and tarot cards, are among the early items hitting the marketplace.Source:SHO | |
