EVAFAGS AT SUICIDE WATCH, HOLY FUCK, HELP ME
>>
>>71060548
Finally. Just about had it wit that leftshit garbage.
>>
>>71060548
Well this is fine.
One, I never watched the show.
Two, it means Eva can go on and do some new stuff.
>>
>>71060548
Well she's dead anyways.
>>
>>71060548
It was surprising it lasted this long.
>>
Shit, that was a good show. I've been catching up on it.
>>
i wathced the first season, it got WAYy to gay for me. and im into femdom.
>>
It wasn't cancelled, it had a proper ending.
>>
It was bad and I fucking hate that bitch.

I wonder what she'll ruin next. But she was the best thing in Penny Dreadful, just to give you an idea of how bad it was.
>>
I tried watching it the other week. I made it through all of the first season and a chunk of the second before dropping it. It's like capeshit where no one uses their powers or even acknowledges them.

Would it have been so much to see Hartnett go wolfman vs some vampires? Or Dorian Gray enter into a battle with Frankenstein's Monster in a battle royale of immortals?
>>
Gave up halfway through this season, wild west setting was shit. They made the right decision.

Three seasons sound about right for it. Only downside is no more delicious Eva and based Timothy Dalton under the same roof.

yeah, chandler getting fucked by dorian was too brittish tv for me
>>

That's good, they've said everything they wanted to. For me the highpoint was the storyline about Frankenstein's monster. It made me really happy. I also liked the part about his past as the guard in the psychiatry. Other than that I feel like they wasted their time on that Lily and Dorian Gray stuff, it wasn't even remotely interesting. The wild west setting was cool too. A nice contrast to dark London.
>>
Good. "Everybody wants Eva" was a terrible show.
>>
>tfw this thread will soon 404 and nobody will remember anything about Penny Dreadful
>>
Well I'm sad.
>>
The finale was truly shit. Utter waste of a character, perhaps even a waste of 3 seasons.
Ironically if Ethan had died instead you could probably stretch things out to a fourth season and it would actually be more interesting
>>
>>71060548
Just started catching this here and there this season. Enjoyed that blood-covered threesome but I don't know how the dude vampire didn't see all that anti-man rhetoric was going to turn on him sooner or later.
>>
When will they finally cancel shameless?
>>
This show had the worst Dracula ever.
>>
>>71061450
He was alright until he basically stopped existing as soon as Ethan went into the chamber.
>>
>>71061450
This show had the best Jekyll ever.
>>
>>71060548
The show had so much potential but it just dragged on into nothingness

I hated Poochie Caitriona. Too cool, too irrelevant, over the top dominatrix.

>>71068382
Pretty much it seems like Eva Green wanted off the show and the show creator refused to do anything else with the series if Eva was off.

Show could easily have lived on with all the new storylines opened this 3rd season not to mention reintegrating Dorian and the Bride characters back into the main storyline.

Many shows outlive their primes and go on to many seasons past their expiration but Penny Dreadful still could have used 1 to 2 more seasons to sort everything.

Sadly Penny Dreadful is gonna be chalked up to another show that was ended before anything resolved with a mountain of open storylines
>>
>>71060548
it wasn't canceled, faggots. it ended. they told the story the wanted to tell. it literally said -THE END- at the end of latest episode. oh and the main character died.
>>
>Jekyll showed up, temporarily cured one dude, then was granted the title of Lord Hyde -- he had no impact on the story at all
>Lyle was replaced by a random Underworld reject midway through the season, robbing him of presence at the end of the series
>Lily and Caliban were left without any purpose at the end of their stories
>The showdown between Ethan and Dracula which has been teased since Season 1 never happened
>Dracula just fucked around with Malcolm and friends while his lifelong ambition was gutted
>Vanessa's only out was to die, robbing her of all agency and invalidating her will and strength which have been pillars of her character since the beginning
>The Dark Vanessa thing had literally zero impact and we saw her for maybe five minutes after she was turned
>We never saw Dracula's true form

The list goes on. It's clear they intended a fourth season but got informed midway through this one that they were cancelled.

I'm honestly depressed as shit. I genuinely cares about these characters so it's awful to see their stories end so slapdash.
>>
>>71069269
looked pretty much like it was slapped together at the 11th hour.

You don't drop in new storyline threads every other episode the way they did if you know well in advanced that its the final season

Favorite character?
Mine is Dorian.

Always had a hard-on for immortality. So I agree with Dorian.

The show was just too fucking fragmented with too many plotlines dangling around the edges and weird shit like Dorian's transexual-who-he-kills-and-never-interacts-with-anyone-else in season 2

For me, the show's death knell was unceremoniously killing Hecacutie though

>>
they are saying now they planed letting the show end with season 3 a while ago but does anybody really believe that?
the events toward the end feel ridiculously rushed and it looks a bit like its basicly just a plan B version they made in case they wouldnt get the chance to continue with the story (which became the case then). greens character has almost no screentime at all over episode 8 and 9. also it feels weird how they just added another character with catriona that got no time at all to develop. the mummy leads with lyle become redundant and its odd to think that the whole introduction of jekyll/hyde is eventually meaningless.

Well that fucking sucks. Though to be fair the show wasn't really giving me what I wanted in a show filled with all the classic horror icons.

I wanted something closer to the 2005 Van Helsing, or a better League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Instead we ended up with people with supernatural powers being mean to one another with the odd bit of okay-action mixed in.

The show was worth it for their take on Frankenstein's monster, and Josh Hartnett as Ethan Chandler,. both of these should get their own series desu.

I was also pissed they killed off Van Helsing in the first season. Dayum shame.

What a strange show. None of the arc stuff ever seemed to come to fruition properly, the pacing was so weird and they'd just pull in and drop storylines at random.

That being said most episodes had at least one or two excellent scenes, and the occasional episode was entirely great. It's like a really well acted clusterfuck.

Still making my way through S3. I'll miss it. I'm not watching much else airing right now so yeeeep.
