    Default Carnival Row

    This is a really interesting show. Kind of Dungeons and Dragons mixed with a mildly steampunk London by Gaslight.

    Excellent series. I'm glad it was renewed before the first season dropped, so no unfinished cliffhangers!

    I've just finished watching this, and I thought it was great. I thought both Bloom and Delevingne were surprisingly strong leads, really very good, as was everyone else. It all looked expensive, too.

    I'm looking forward to the next series.

    Enjoyed it a lot, though it's not technically steampunk, just Victorian-esque.

    While Bloom and Delevingne are the leads, the story of Imogen and Agreus is much better, imo. I hope to see more of them next season.

    Eh, I'd say it's mildly steampunk, what with the airships.

    I liked it better when From Hell didn't incorporate a Midsummer's Night's Dream and the killer's motivation wasn't the central protagonist.

    I gave up after 1 episode. It gets better? Maybe I'll go back

    I didn't find it slow, so I guess it depends on how interested you are in Bloom and Delevingne's characters - I really liked them straight off the bat, but for those like MyriVerse who prefer the pairing of Imogen and Agreus, you have to wait a while for things to build up speed.

    The second and final season of Carnival Row starts on February 17th.

    I hope this season ties things up nicely.

    Finally. I loved this first season. Took forever to get this far it seems

    It is both nice and bittersweet to finally get the second season but knowing it is also the last.
    Frankly, I had given up on it. I don't have time to rewatch S1, too many backlogged shows and current shows I'm watching, so I need a very solid "Previously On" segment when it returns.

    I'm finally getting around to Turn: Washington's Spies, sad to not have found a thread about that around here. Two seasons into it and it is great!
