The Following

First topic message reminder :

Starts Tuesday 22nd January 10pm Sky Atlantic

Anyone going to watch this ? It looks good from the trailers i have seen .

The premise of the show is

About a FBI agent who finds himself in the middle of a network of serial killers, Joe Carroll a former college professor who taught the works of Poe and killed young women in the gothic hero's honor—until he got caught. Since then he's been spending hours on a computer in the prison library, building a social network of copycat killers who hang on his every command. When the series begins, he's just escaped from death row with help from those followers, and the FBI calls in former agent Ryan Hardy who brought down Joe the first time—to consult on the case and try and stop anymore killings . Kevin Bacon is FBI agent Hardy and James Purefoy is the serial killer Carroll .

Best episode of series this weeks I thought. Interestingly poised.

Very good episode.

If, if they make series three, I think it will be about Emma, unless she dies.

Still going strong the series, Joe's infiltrated the new colt, fully expect him to kill off Mika or whatever his name is & take control. Like the fact there is two dynamic's, Bacon going after Joe & Weston after Lily. Also, fully expecting Max to get with Weston.

Max is lovely.

If the real FBI is like this in real life, then we're all doomed.

As my wife said, if the FBI from Criminal Minds were involved this would have been a mini series.

Another good episode.

Interesting ending to.

She's not dead

think this is all going a bit meh now, first season started well, now just feel there dragging it out

Yeah have to say, dont think Joe is as good in it this season.

Not a fan of this cult.

Great episode last week.
 
Great episode from Joe to.
 
Tonight's is the last in the series.

Well, what an end to the series! Enjoyed it more than I thought I would.

Who was the twin getting picked up by?

Third series confirmed too.

Thats the question.
 
When is third season, jan?

Third season starts 7th march.

yes, westi. wondered when this was coming back. you looking forward to strikeback too, u know when that's on this year?

not sure about strikeback john.

I heard they delayed it, cos Sullivan Stapleton(scott) damaged his leg.

Interesting that one guy played the twins.
I thought it was actual twins.

The series has started well.

Yeah, decent first episode.

Maybe it's me, just think it was a bit samey that first episode. See how it unfolds, kind of bored of the twin story actually, needs Joe back ASAP

Think its been ok so far.

Not warming to Mark at all this series(Luke would have been better to keep alive).

The couple with him are good characters.

Joe needs to make an appearance soon.

Very good double header.
Thought it might be on a mid season break because of it.

is on this saturday.

Tied up a few things.

just got onto the fire house killings, been a decent series so far, interesting to see where this Strauss thing goes. Not sure I could watch another series though, too samey & without Carroll, it's lost it's magic.

Need to catch up john.

Last episode was good.
Bit of a surprise(for me anyway).

Good episode with Strauss released & Carroll returning, hopefully more like this

Been cancelled.

Really.

Where did you hear that?

Tv Line but just type it into google and half a dozen sites should have the news by now. Most of the networks have announced what they have cancelled and renewed for next season over the past two days. Between May 7th-14th is when the major 5 networks must confirm cancellations/renewals by, obviously some shows are done before this but if you are interested in what's happening with your US tv show this is the date you'll know by.

ok cheers, will check it out.

In fairness think 3 seasons is enough.

Wtf?

Seriously I'm on episode 9 & this series has been very, very good. It can't be a reflection of the series, surely just the show's timing & story coming to a natural end?

Nah ratings had been terrible in season 2 and it just scraped a renewal, this season they have been abysmal. Rarely does a show ever have a natural end its 99% of the time due to to poor ratings or being to expensive to continue.

Think this saturday is a double header to end the season.

Season 2 was poor for me, the whole cult business was terrible i thought.

This season has been good in parts, better than the second, not as good as the first.

Saturday nights was a good episode.

Yeah, I'd say three series is about enough but this latest series has been very good. Season two was awful, the twins went on for too long. this new character though has been an improvement but I can see why they've decided to call it a day.

Oh well Westi, not long until strikeback.

Keepe seeing trailors for Strike Back, but all it says is coming soon, not an actual date.

Just seen the second episode from saturday night.

gonna be interesting to see how this ends.

Good ending to the second episode.
Was warming to Mark. Good character i thought in the end.

Only just got around to watching this finale. Decent end, although Bacon clearly wanted another season to go hunting down that group. Great first season, shambolic second season & a good final series is how I'd sum it up. I'll miss Joe, cracking character.

Yeah, Joe was one of the best characters on tv for me.

Wouldn't have minded seeing a 4th season.

Bacon is a quality actor.
Played his part perfectly.
