It is my understanding that PD was released on Blu-ray yesterday, Oct. 4th.

Much to my delight, I was scanning thru Netflix on a friend's TV and Penny Dreadful season three is available. I watched ep 2 (loved it) and am excited to continue on. I get Netflix at home so in this case things couldn't be duckier.

Caught ep three yesterday and was enthralled and disgusted. Lovin' this interpretation of Dracula tho did figure out it was him before the reveal (I guess everything can't be a surprise). I'm really intrigued by the creature's plot direction. Ethan's journey is interesting but not nearly as exciting as the aforementioned. I really like Treadaway as an actor but marveling over him is about as much interest I can muster for the Jekyll & Hyde story (other than knowing that whatever happens will be beautifully acted and off the chain). The imagery of the asylum is SO disturbing. Dorian & Brona - that seems so way over the top - I mean I had to marvel at the audacity of it but so far it is the least interesting subplot for me - mostly because of the gore. Maybe too because I miss the beautiful gauze lens Dorian.

Patti Lupone is marvelous.

Oh? ;)

I am enjoying this season. I think I am four or five eps in. No complaints. Eager to see how it all ends up. Still definitely hooked.

Sorry if that was a spoiler for you, dom.  [santa_sad]  Vanessa's fate has been discussed on the forum, so I presumed you already knew...

I can't imagine how they are going to satisfyingly tie everything up what with how everyone's story lines seem all so separated but I guess I'd be foolish to think that at this point everyone is going to live happily ever after or even meet up in the final episode for one big party. I really am enjoying this season tho.

Watched finale last night. WOW!

Even knowing that Vanessa dies, not knowing how and why didn't take much away from it except maybe the shock factor. I enjoyed the third season very much, my favorite of the three I'd say tho they were all superb, IMO.

I did enjoy the Penny Dreadful interpretation of Dracula very much. It took me an episode or three to figure out it was him.
