Penny Dreadful continues! This week Patrick (who is audibly sick) and the Brothers Torpey continue their quest through everyone’s favorite gothic horror drama in which Josh Hartnett plays a werewolf. It’s an eventful season, featuring witches, throat ripping, necrophelia, and some cozy sweaters. Plus: Patrick reads mean tweets about himself, we discuss why Josh isn’t in the new Halloween movie, and the Torpeys pitch their commercial for Mountain Dew: Code Red.

Previous Episode

Penny Dreadful Season 1

After several years making obscure indie movies few people have seen, Josh Hartnett returns to the mainstream. But this time...he’s on the small screen. This week we kick off our 3-episode run covering the prestige Showtime gothic horror series, Penny Dreadful. In this episode we spend a lot of time debating the evolution of “prestige TV,” as well as discussing Batman Day, the film Slugs, and the 2003 film The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

Penny Dreadful Season 3 (w/ Andy Webb)

This week Andy Webb, the biggest Penny Dreadful fan we know, joins us to close out our coverage of the show. Does it stick the landing? Does our boy Josh continue to wolf out? These questions are answered among the many tangents such as our pitch for Matt’s cameo on the show Billions, our ideas for multiple Penny Dreadful spinoffs, and Patrick’s angry rant about the Bailey School Kids.
