PENNY DREADFUL

Showtime, 10:00 p.m. ET

 

SEASON PREMIERE: This new season begins with even more creepiness and compelling character development than last season. Rory Kinnear, who just spent more time dead than alive as the idealistic local council member on HBO’s The Casual Vacancy, has an entire role here where he’s undead – as Frankenstein’s creature. But this season, he finds purpose, and employment, and maybe even a mate. Oh, and Billie Piper as Brona Croft? Even though she died last season, we haven’t seen the last of her yet… and yes, those two plots absolutely may be intertwined.
