Penny Dreadful on Showtime

I see we still don't have Showtime Anytime on DISH. I wonder if they will ever add it.

Penny Dreadful picked up for season 3: http://tvline.com/2015/06/16/penny-dreadful-renewed-season-3-showtime/

I'm still waiting to record the remainder of Season 2 before I watch. Make a nice weekend binge.

Well I watched the season three finale last night and at the end of the finale it said THE END. I think that is it for this show. All the stories were abruptly wrapped up in one hour and a major star of the show was killed off and buried. I can't find any trace of a renewal for this show for season 4 on the internet and I don't see it moving forward without a central character that has been featured since season one,so this must be the real end. So now that makes the last show I watched on Showtime and I can now delete it and stop watching Showtime ever again. The only premium service I regularly watch shows on still , is HBO and only because I get it for $10.00 a month.

I keep Showtime and HBO as much for the boxing coverage as any other reason.

Yep Penny Dreadful is done.

Couldn't really get into last season, and I gave this season two episodes I think.

With the resurrection of Twin Peaks next year, the new series premiering next week, Roadies and other upcoming shows, Showtime doesn't have enough time to air all of their original programming, if they want to only air it from 9-11PM on Sunday nights. Doesn't surprise me to see Penny Dreadful or House of Lies end this year considering how much Showtime seems to have in the pipeline. I'm thinking either Masters of Sex or The Affair will be done after their next season is complete, but I hope I'm wrong.

Well now we know for sure. Thanks.

Too bad - I enjoyed the show. I haven't seen the finale yet.
