I’ve stayed with this series, trying to find enough reasons to justify my continued loyalty. And so far, the scripts have let me down, and only a few performances – by Kevin Bacon as the haunted ex-FBI agent Ryan Hardy, Natalie Zea as the cult leader’s ex-wife, and Valorie Curry (pictured) as cult follower Emma. But last week, the show finally served up a genuine surprise: a flashback in which young Hardy was shown forcing the drugged-out killer of his father to inject himself with a fatal overdose. It may be too little, too late, but it’s a start. Finally.
