It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

I'm not a fantasy/fairytale fan or whatever, but Penny Dreadful is by far my most favorite tv show ever, along with Peaky Blinders (different genre, I know). You just can't imagine how good the acting is, the cinematography, the insane plot twists,... I often had to pauze the episodes because I had a big 'O M G' moment. I even had to cry sometimes. If you're doubting to watch the show: please do watch it. (I even wish I could unsee it, just so I could see it 'for the first time' over and over again.)

I had never heard of this show, until I found it on Netflix. I'm into scary stuff so this should do me good. The first time I ever heard of the name Penny Dreadful was from a book called Kolchak: Penny dreadful double feature and when I saw that it was a tv show I got interested in it. When I say Kolchak, I mean Kolchak: The Nightstalker.

Dangnamit, just when I thought the horror genre is beaten to death by the travesty of women and their hybristophilic, romanticized perversion with the ghastly, Showtime proved to me that there is still hope for good old- fashion Horror; and with style. The title is a cleverly taken from a pejorative of 19th century serialized sensational Victorian fiction (that incidentally, helped to literate poor working class youths).The show itself, is a great amalgamation of most of the classic horror figures. That much I can say and the rest I will leave it up to you. The acting, story, direction, production are all top notched and highly commendable. I am glad that Timothy Dalton is casted, and been casted well, so is Eva green and surprisingly Josh Hartnett too. The beat lines though, must be from Rory Kinnear's portrayal of Frankenstein's monster; at once vicious and vulnerable, a poet and a savage. I recommend this gem rather than all the other mediocre garbage out there.

i know the show's been over for a while...and i know it's VERY likely that no one, much less anyone from the show, will ever read this... but what utter bullshit to try and convince me that, 'well...we thought this would be a good ending for the show'. do you think we can't FEEL when something went wrong? something in production slipped out of place...one of the actors didn't want to go on...there was trouble on the set...what EVER...OK. you need to do a crash landing? whatever... just don't lie to us...thanks. it WAS one of the best shows i've ever, in my 66 years, seen. until, suddenly, it was over? i don't mind sad endings. that's not what i'm complaining about. in fact...i've said all i need to. i don't need to defend my position any more than you all, obviously, felt the need to tell the truth...
