    Definitely a strange one. Watched the first two, have the second two recorded. Interesting so far.

    I watched the first one, the show has really dark lighting, so we can only watch it at night (we have huge windows in the living room). i like it...but I really like the weird shows.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Watched episode 1 which was kinda interesting. I'm sure I would have stuck with, but got hooked on "Fargo" which seems a little more my type of show. I'm sure I'll catch up on Penny once the Stanley Cup is over.

    I saw the first three episodes. I freaked out a little when Rose Tyler got naked (cuz I'm five) and overall I think the show has potential. That main woman (I don't know her name) is really good.

    The problem is someone asked me what it was about and I described it as Once Upon a Time but for horror stories instead of fairy tales and now I can't not think of it like that.

    I've been home sick and useless so I caught up on this.
    I didn't really like the way the first season ended, but cheesy to me. But overall I liked the characters, so I decided to watch the 2nd season. I'm very glad I did.

    Showtime has already renewed for season three, which is both confusing and exciting to me.
    Confusing because the way our main characters ended the season, you'd be forgiven for thinking it was a series finale rather than a season finale.
    Exciting because a shake up of the main cast might not be a bad thing. I loved Rassilon (Timothy Dalton) but I think his story has been told. Same for Josh Hartnett, though I will not be complaining if he comes back. Frankenstein's monster, calling himself John Clare, can stay gone, but I think if he reappeared in the end of the third season it'd be a nice twist.
    It seems that the set up for the next season will be focused on Dorian Gray & Billie Piper as the big bad, which leads me to figure Frankenstein will play a very central role in the season. I can't imagine Miss Ives NOT being the main character so I'll just assume them two team up after he confesses what the deal is with his "cousin" or whatever. So it could be very exciting indeed, and maybe take a little break from the good v. Evil, God v. Devil subplots. Not that those aren't enjoyable, but I mean, a little break, you know?

    Anyone else watch it?

    I watch it, and you raise good points but I think all the main characters will be back.
    I wouldn't be surprised if Sembene is reborn in Africa, for that matter.

    I hadnt considered that. but according to this, Sembene is d-e-d dead, and the actor has been cast in the new Kurt Sutter show on FX. here and here

    I do hope the funny little man will be back. I liked him.
