Dreadful Thoughts: A Penny Dreadful Podcast

Welcome back to Dreadful Thoughts the fan-run podcast all about Showtime's Penny Dreadful! The time we've been waiting for has finally come. There have been interviews and teases; rumors and conjecture, but no real look at what is to come in season two of Penny Dreadful until this past week when Showtime released the first official trailer for season two. It may have only been two minutes eighteen seconds long but boy oh boy was it a doozy.  This week the ladies of the podcast wrap up Dorian Gray with a look at adaptations in movies, radio plays and really terrible theme songs. We all come out of it with a really strong appreciation for Reeve Carney's portrayal of our favourite Victorian deviant. Plus there's a new bonus round of Fuck, Marry, Kill!   Have a friend who might like Dreadful Thoughts? Show them the sampler! Check out the Sampler here!

Due to some crazy technical issues caused by the volatile combination of water and electronics we're postponing our Dorian Wrap Up until January.

If possession is nine-tenths of the law, then for this episode Ash is at least 90% Canadian. We're still not sure what possessed the hosts to debate the finer points of memorial photography and advances in coffin technology in the modern era as they recap this excellent bottle episode, but we're sure you'll enjoy it either way!  Want some free swag from the Showtime Penny Dreadful store?

Welcome back to Dreadful Thoughts the fan-run podcast all about Showtime's Penny Dreadful!   On this week's show we're talking about Penny Dreadful's sixth episode: What Death Can Bring Together. This was a week of challenges and failures. Ash failed to research for a fact time, Comcast failed to maintain Brad’s internet connection, and Brad failed to count the number of chambers in a revolver. Steph faced the ultimate challenge of fixing some really rough audio and valiantly conquered the odds to deliver this episode in time. Be sure to listen to the whole thing because the bloopers are strong with this one. Want some free swag from the Showtime Penny Dreadful store?
