Penny Dreadful - Season 2 Review

by iwantmycookies | created - 02 May 2015 | updated - 06 Jul 2015 | Public

Season rating - 8.5-great Highlight episode - And They Were Enemies

A really great season, the back-half especially with those last 3 episodes. The whole cast were great as ever and although the witches weren't the most formiddable of villains Helen McCrory was awesome to watch. Eva Green was amazing as usual and her dynamic with Hartnett was nice to see. Elsewhere Kinnear was stellar as 'John Clare' and Piper as Lily was a refreshing change from the Brona character, and although her change to being all evil seemed a bit sudden, her teaming up with Dorian Gray - who became a lot more interesting, painting an' all - makes for a deadly couple next season. Look forward to where it goes next. Also, RIP Sembene.
