Episode 2 was... interesting. I too was sorry to see Proteus bowing out so soon, but then that's the peril of an eight-episode season I suppose. I am a bit worried that the writer is packing too much into the story; the appearance of Dorian Gray seemed a little gratuitous.
And am I the only one who couldn't understand a word Billie Piper said? I picked up "Me lungs are buggered" but the rest was incoherent.

Watched episode 4 last night and the show is starting to flounder.. There's almost too much going on and they're not developing any of it.
Sir Malcolm is doing all this to help his daughter, and yet he's talking about going on an Africa trip? There's nothing scary about Caliban. They're doing all this build-up with Chandler, but it needs a payoff soon. The end of 4 was surprising.

They're doing all this build-up with Chandler, but it needs a payoff soon. The end of 4 was surprising. Caliban is strong and most certainly stronger than his master. He seems to only show aggression to his master, but I guess that's understandable given his story. I don't like the character but I don't like how his master deals with him even more. In one instance he's arrogant and in the other he's a punk. He keeps going back and forth and it's not working for him. I still don't get why no one has seemed to pick up on Chandler. There are people around that I thought would sense a little something extra about him, but apparently not to the degree that I was expecting. I guess they all think he's just a hired gun. The ending was a surprise that I didn't see coming. Last edited by Iron Guru; 06-04-2014 at 08:43 PM.. |

I loved Proteus. Such an amazing performance.
Frankenstein and Caliban is hard to follow... When he sees Caliban outside, Frankenstein is aggressive and actually seems to be willingly going along with making Caliban a bride. That storyline is the weakest by far.

I don't have any issues understanding Piper. Her northern region Irish accent is fantastic actually.
I'm loving this show. Delighted to see its being picked up for a 2nd season. |

Yeah, I don't have a problem with her accent.
It got picked up? Interesting.

Of course it did. We still need Dr Jekyll and Springheel Jack to make an appearance.

SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The twist is my biggest fear. They are obviously trying to lead the viewer down the werewolf path with him (Indians cursed him). I'm also laying down my bet on Miss Croft as the future bride. OMG I just realized he'll be an American Werewolf in London. ;) I can't believe all we got was just a tease of the wolfman (shaking fist). Can't wait to see what season 2 brings us. |

Yeah, I was thinking to myself that there better be a payoff to all of this, and it ended up pretty good. I found the progress made in the story-lines satisfying. The season dragged a bit too much but now I'm looking forward to next season.
