    Yep. Terrence Winter left the show; it didn't get great ratings; and it was rumored that the season cost almost $100 million to make, which is insane!

      I also found out today that they pulled the plug a few months back on The Brink -- which had also been renewed then cancelled -- as well.
      This is why I almost never watch a new show before its been on a few seasons.

      Has anyone here watched Penny Dreadful? It recently ended and I was wondering if its worth watching. It seems that it ended abruptly, I guess the producers found out they wouldnt get a 4th season too late to give it a proper conclusion.

        My daughter loves it. I want to watch it eventually.

          Finished watching this on the weekend; pretty well done, very cool premise, loved the final episode. Something about Franco didn't seem right in this role, but maybe that was intentional. Some fabulous performances from the supporting cast.

          some clever script writing ... I don't think this is any kind of spoiler but I'll hide it anyway ...

          Spoiler!
          It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

                  • Stranger Things on Netflix is worth watching after two episodes in for me, my 15 year old son is really enjoying it as well

                      just finished it, "totally awesome", especially as an 80's homage......

                        I watched the first two episodes as well and really like. I need to finish it, just haven't had the chance. All of my friends love it.
                        I'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.

                          • The Night Of is simply amazing. Only 4 episodes in, but already among the best things I've seen.

                            I enjoyed Stranger Things, but didn't think it was as good as people are hyping it to be. Felt parts could have been executed a lot better. Loved the 80's vibe, but the "bad guys" were characterless and featureless, they kinda rolled in, did bad guy stuff, then disappeared ... and the alternative reality was never properly conceived IMO. That said, all the main cast did a great job, especially the police chief.
