Kind of sad that this show (despite the reaction of homophobes) is actually just like any other--where gay sex scenes are given five second flashes, while straight sex scenes are more like five minutes of richly detailed action. I hope that will improve and Dorian will either end up with Ethan again (fabulous couple!) or perhaps even Victor.
Anyway, while I tuned out of the first episode after it looked like it was just another vampire-hunting story, I'm glad I came back to it because this show is so much better then I thought it would be. On that note, while the creatures murder's are senseless and cruel (in Mary Shelley's book Victor had a childhood sweetheart and a family for the creature to use as blackmail--but here he's close to no one, so basically if he says hi to someone in the street, Caliban might kill that person), it nevertheless was nice that they got rid of Van Helsing, since that character has been so overdone and IMO, extremely boring. Could the actress that Caliban is falling in love with be Sybil Vane from The Picture of Dorian Gray, I wonder? I'm glad there will be a season 2, though Malcolm can die at any time now and I'd be satisfied.
