After watching the first episode the show does not convince me yet. It certainly isn't going after the same charm that made the original great. It may yet become something good in it's own right but as of now I am not convinced.

Admittedly, as a fan of the original who was gutted when it end, I hoped this would be some kind of continuation. However, it’s not, but it’s still in the Penny Dreadful Universe so to speak. Despite the change in era and location, it still has the supernatural element, which surrounds those depreciated in this show. Although fantasy, I was intrigued and read deeper about the show and the amount of historical research behind this show. A passionate subject for John Logan and I love how he’s taken reality and given all sides a voice, even although it’s cleverly interwoven with the supernatural, to make it more appealing to a broader audience. So, I’m not at all disappointed anymore after 3 episodes; a slow start, but it’s looking to be a complex story and feel it’s going to be a big hit. Still sad the original left our screens, it was one of my favourites. I’m looking forward to seeing much more from John Logan. PS. I’ve yet to rate the show, after all there’s only 3 episodes which have been screened. I will await full judgement until the season’s end.

If you're thinking about watching this because you loved or liked the original Penny Dreadful series, you might want to skip this one. The best way to look at the 2 different Penny Dreadful seasons is to think American Horror Story except none of the actors from the first season are present in the second season. In other words, this has pretty much absolutely nothing to do with and is completely dissimilar to the original Penny Dreadful. They would have been better off dropping Penny Dreadful from the title of this particular series and just named it City of Angels or something completely different. As far as the show goes, it was moderately entertaining at best. Although I did not particularly like this show, you might.

Without Eva Green's deliciously tortured Vanessa, this new evolution can't possibly be as good. But I'll give it a fair go just in case.

UPDATE 2nd July 2020
Okay, so I've finished watching the whole series now and I'm hoping they don't make a second. This wasn't a pa More

This is a continuation of my initial thoughts on City of Angels.
Now that I've concluded watching the whole season the last few episodes picked up for me.

The supernatural thread in the show unfortunately for me alludes me not being familiar with Mexican folklore. That's fine as that isn More
