Penny Dreadful - Verbis Diablo (2015) (épisode)
The story significantly lost pace in the second episode, I have nothing against conversations if they are essential to the ongoing plot, but I could easily do without debates about the qualities of poets. I was already disgusted with poetry in elementary school, constantly analyzing poems and pondering what the poet wanted to say with each verse, it bored me to death.
Penny Dreadful - La Fraîcheur de l'enfer (2015) (épisode)
Penny Dreadful - Season 1 (2014) (saison)
The first season wasn’t disappointing in the least. It gradually introduced familiar characters that used to scare fearful readers. The creators managed to write a meaningful story with an excellent, dark atmosphere. They built up the suspense and offered a great cast, Eva Green being the proverbial jewel in the crown. I liked how they managed to end the first season in style, while casually luring the viewer to watch the next season.
Penny Dreadful - Grand-Guignol (2014) (épisode)
The creators took a break from the main storyline in the previous exorcism episode, but in this episode they returned to it and successfully finished what they started. The character of Victor Frankenstein undergoes an interesting development under the influence of the Monster, Ethan Chandler has shown his true face, and there was also some decent action. 5 stars.
Penny Dreadful - Possession (2014) (épisode)
I need to reiterate what other users have written before me, the entire seventh episode relies on Eva Green's superb performance. Under different circumstances, I would hesitate to give it five stars, as the story barely moved forward, but this time I had to go all in for this perfect study of obsession, whether I wanted to or not.
Penny Dreadful - Ce que la mort peut unir (2014) (épisode)
If I criticized the fourth episode for its weak plot, in the sixth, on the contrary, the story picked up again and besides the dark atmosphere, it also brought decent action in the harbor and Vanessa's confrontation with darkness, which promises interesting experiences in the next episodes. I was amused by Van Helsing's sudden departure.
Penny Dreadful - Une amitié fusionnelle (2014) (épisode)
Penny Dreadful - Le Demi-monde (2014) (épisode)
Doc Martin - Don't Let Go (2011) (épisode)
Hmmm, so in the end the unbelievable happened and I gave the sixth episode of the fifth season four stars. I was expecting a lot, but this surprised even myself. I had several reasons: the plot with the poisoned janitor made me laugh, those two desperate people finally went their separate ways, and I managed to put together a new lawnmower while watching.
Penny Dreadful - Résurrection (2014) (épisode)
This time I already reduced the rating because I felt that the creators were not able to get the story at the right pace. Besides that, I didn't have any other significant comments, the atmosphere was still appropriately oppressive, I enjoyed the story of the Monster, and I'm looking forward to the next episodes.
