Review Ron Hogan Feb 12, 2013
It may have more viewers than positive reviews, but The Following is moving in the right direction for Ron. Here's his review of Mad Love...
This review contains spoilers.
1.4 Mad Love
The Following is a very dark show. If you're getting deja-vu, that's because I talked about the darkness of the show's tonality last week. This week, I'm talking about actual darkness. There's a murkiness to the episodes in general - and this episode in particular - that makes me feel like I need to adjust the colour balance on my television so I can actually follow what's going on. Ryan's in his perpetually shadowed apartment. Ryan's creeping through a darkened house. Emma, Jacob, and Paul are skulking in their darkened farmhouse. Joey squats in the darkness at the top of the stairs. That kidnapped Asian girl is taped to a chair in a dark basement.
