This Sunday sees the premiere of John Logan and Sam Mendes'"psycho-sexual" Victorian thriller series, Penny Dreadful, a portmanteau of public domain characters and original creations. And I'm quite looking forward to it. The first episode has been available on YouTube for a while now, if you live in the right region, but the series begins in earnest this week. Reviews on this site will replace Agents of SHIELD on Wednesdays, so look forward to those.
And can someone explain when Sunday nights became the high holy night for quality TV? I spend half of my week just reporting on what I saw on Sunday. Back in the day, the only thing Sunday night could be counted on was Touched by an Angel. Anyone else remember that period in CBS history when a large part of their programming was heavily religious? That was weird, right?
