That was a powerful and unsettling episode...which I watched past midnight, dammit---had to sleep with the lights and TV on, heh

Eva Green deserves an Emmy for this series, nothing less.

the theories about Ethan Chandler is that he was some kind of Army Chaplain who did his share of bad things to the Native Americans, who in turn cursed him with lycanthropy. Totoo kaya? We'll see in next week's season finale.

ayan na!
finale na yun? mas maiksi pa kesa sa game of thrones? oh well. enjoy naman.

pero buti sabik si caliban sa kahit anong female companion. akala ko kasi, pag nakita nya yung bangkay, sabihin nya, wala na bang ibang choices? gusto ko yung mukhang theater actress! :D

It was a good finale, with a rather abrupt ending, maybe because they've been given the go-signal for a second season.

One thing that bothered me was that Caliban lived inside the Grand Guignol for what seems to be months, and he didn't even notice that there were vampires inside?

Best line this episode, from Ethan: "Monkey? No. No monkey."  >:D


pero buti sabik si caliban sa kahit anong female companion. akala ko kasi, pag nakita nya yung bangkay, sabihin nya, wala na bang ibang choices? gusto ko yung mukhang theater actress! :D

LOL. If they follow the "Bride of Frankenstein" story, you'll know that the Bride will reject the Monster. And if Brona regains her memories, then this will create all sorts of problems for Victor and Ethan.

Yeah, naisip ko rin yun... dapat ang dami nang namatay sa theater, kahit na hindi si caliban.

looks interesting. i see Rose Tyler of Doctor Who is included in the cast.

Di lang si Rose, pati si Rassilon!!!

Can't forget his ala-300 speech that closes "The End Of Time Pt. 1"

The whole premise reminds me of a "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" done right

Watched the first two episodes--I'm pleased that this show is as sinister and bloody as ever...but all that demonic chanting can be rather disturbing, so I just mute it  >:D

3rd episode was really good, with a Vanessa Ives origin story of sorts, featuring the great Patti Lupone making a guest appearance. The flashback also provides a possible solution to Vanessa's current dilemma with the evil witches who are out to get her; can't wait to see how this is resolved.

Chilling buildup to next week's season finale...looks like all our leads are doomed--or are they?

And crap, having just lost another good character on another Brit show (Strike Back), looks like they did the same thing here.  :'(

Just watched the finale...while I was glad how they resolved some plot points, I wasn't happy with the way other characters' arcs ended, but then again this is a Victorian show after all, so I guess they're saving it for next season.

And this snippet from a post-finale interview with John Logan reveals what's in store for next season:

Quote
IGN: One more now. What about Dracula? Not that that's the name he'll be called on the show, but I really did like the explanation, from a few weeks back, about the Fallen Angel being severed in two. And so will we meet the Earthly Half?

Logan: Yes. The central idea of the show, as I mentioned, is the character of Vanessa Ives. And the cosmology around her, the world around her, expanded a lot this season. And that part about the fallen angel, or the fallen angel's brother, will definitely play a part next season.


So, looking forward to Dracula as the Big Bad for Season 3   >:D

That was a good season premiere, with everyone now separated and scattered, while Vanessa is all alone in London as Dracula makes his presence felt.
