Didn't likeDorian Gray at all. Proteus was okay, was pretty sad to see him die just like that.
I didn't think I'd like him, but he's not as obnoxious as I expected tbh.

YesAlso do we have to spoiler tag things from episode 2?
Not exactly a difficult enterprise, to tell the truth.This is like a better version of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
He didn't bother me at all. He's usually portrayed as a gaping asshole and Penny Dreadfuls' version follows that route, but at least I didn't find him annoying.Dorian Gray comes off as a major twat. Not a fan.

i thought the prophecy was more metaphoric then literal..I'll have to watch it again before the third episode and pay attention to her more. I just assumed she was a medium not that she's actually possessed as a state of being.
And yes Mina from Dracula..we're assuming THE ONE they were hunting was dracula..but now they realise there are more of them..and all roads lead to egypt

Timothy Dalton's steely performance during thewas amazeballs. He didn't utter a word, yet you could see this mix of rage and shame on his face.seance scene

let's just say im dumb, someone explain to me the whole story of what Eva was saying during the seance
She isn't nearly as bad as her accent, which is a complete mess. It's not that it doesn't sound Irish, but it doesn't even sound Northerner. I believe she would be serviceable without it.Billie Piper has no place among this crowd. Shit actress.
Malcolm's adventures in Africa. Lost his son (?) and got caught by his daughter banging a woman other than her mother.
Caught by his daughter? Didn't the demon or whatever say that Vanessa saw him?

Please spoiler tag discussion of Episode 2 before it airs tomorrow evening. Thank you.
Yes, it's a little atypical, but I think this is the last one that'll be released early on demand. Episode 3 isn't going to be up until a week from Monday (the 26th), iirc.I have been watching them on demand and very confused by the fact they are available before the air date, but just now put it all together.

I'm not saying it's brilliant by any stretch, but there's parts that would be VERY passable as a Belfast accent.
I didn't realize John Logan True Detective'd this show (wrote every episode). I wonder if that'll become more welcome among shows that have less episodes per season.
I understand about half of what Billie Piper is saying.
Will the show be continually uploaded on Hulu or will only the pilot be available due to Showtime?
Also:Season 1: episode 2 "Seance"
Egyptologist Sir Ferdinand Lyle hosts a party and requires Vanessa and Sir Malcolm attend to attend. There they meet Dorian Gray during a séance held by Madame Kali. Meanwhile, Ethan makes the acquaintance of a young Irish immigrant, Brona Croft, with a dark past.

That was probably me. Yes, I'm very pleased now.Ep 2:Is there a more detailed write up of the seance anywhere? I've gone back to piece it all together a few times, but I can't even understand what's being said two-thirds of the time.
Ah crap, sorry. Thanks for grabbing that.
Also Ep 2Ha, I remember someone earlier in the thread talking about how they hated the fact that Proteus looked nothing like how the monster was described in the book, then went on to quote a passage from the book about the monster having long, oily black hair and pale, nearly translucent skin. Looks like they got it right after all.
Where are you guys seeing this one week early...? I am watching this on the Movie Network here in Canada and episode 2 is tonight.
