Review: Penny Dreadful Season 1: TV Show

Max SchindlerUncategorized, , , , , , , ,
Penny Dreadful Season 1 brings together a quick-firing alcoholic cowboy, Dorian Gray, Frankenstein's monster, an old hunter, a femme fatale and Professor Van Helsing, all involved in the hunt for Count Dracula. No, I'm not talking about a late decided sequel to the Sean Connery film The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Nor is it some sort of spinoff Hugh Jackman- "classic" Van Helsing (even though a remake is on the cards, with Tom Cruise in the lead role). No, this blog covers the new Showtime series Penny Dreadful Season 1. And certainly, the concept sounds silly but it's a lavish series written by Skyfall-man John Logan!…

Suits Season 4 on DVD starts off strange. All the usual Suits cast are there, Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht), Rachel (Meghan Markle), Donna (Sarah Rafferty) but Mike has a new job.... it took me a little while to adjust (and remember) that in Suits Season 3, Mike had received new employment with a former client. I was concerned as I didn't see how the shows chemistry would work - Harvey without Mike, what would they do without each other? As I sat down with the Xmarx and Pod Food crew, which turned into a series of nights, I began to wonder how Suits Season 4 would pan out. I watched Suits Season 4 in…

Whilst sitting around with the Xmarx and VIZOO crew on a Sunday afternoon we decided to throw on a movie. We had a few choses, though ended up going with the new Keanu Reeves movie - John Wick.

We continued on against my wishes. I held my breathe... (more…)
