I'm not one for award shows but if these dumb little things may anything to anyone in the industry, Eva Green deserves some kind of extra-special one for her performance in Penny Dreadful.

I don't want to read any more of this thread because I've not seen any of this series. I hate cliffhangers, especially ones that go unresolved. From what I've gathered, this season is s self contained story? If so, I'll watch it at my next opportunity.

Doctor and K9, the first season of PD comes to a natural conclusion, but the door is left open for a sequel.  I was actually quite pleased that writer/creator John Logan did NOT go for the wearisomely knee-jerk predictable end of season cliffhanger.

it's been a few months since I saw the final episode of season one but while there was not one big "who shot JR?" style cliffhanger there were several storylines that I felt were left suspended with the intent of being picked up in a second season.

certainly Brona and the "bride of Frankenstein" story was left hanging. the werewolf "reveal" did not happen til the final episode. there were lots of "mini" cliffhangers.

but it seems like the vampire and "Mina" element of it came to it's conclusion.
