6/10 – Vanessa + Ethan (Penny Dreadful)“You will not surrender while I live.”
Vanessa & Frankenstein, Penny Dreadful, season 2
I loved their friendship so much. And the way Vanessa got to be lighthearted in this scene.
Things Penny Dreadful NEVER ADDRESSED
- Ethan never found out about Victor and Brona!Lily, there were so many moments where they could have been reunited !! WASTED
- Lyle in Egypt they CLEARLY set that up some kind of Mummy storyline could be introduced in a season 4. I was really hoping for it.
- Vanessa is the Egyptian goddess Amunet, another part of season 4 that would have been explained/tied into the Egypt storyline more I’m sure. (along with the scorpion which was never really explained!!!)
- Dracula vs the Devil, they never went further in explaining more about how they’re brothers and their relationship with God and each other. I would HAVE LOVED to see more about that. Them fighting over Vanessa. Plus more of the cast could have got the chance to play the Devil too!!
- Catriona Hartdegen, they introduced a new character that I JUST STARTED to like in the season finale but we literally knew NOTHING about her. WHO WAS SHE?? VAMPIRE HUNTER?? TIME TRAVELER?? It would have been nice to explain a little bit more about the Thanatologist.
- Dracula and Vanessa, he did say that they were past lovers and that he was searching century after century for her… that could have been interesting to see in flashbacks and know more about! Was he also in love with Amunet as well?? Ugh I’ll never know. 😦
- Hecate, I heard her backstory, felt really bad for her, she started to grow on me… and then…

- Dorian Gray, I honestly thought at some point Lily or Justine would have seen his portrait and he’d have to take SOME kind of action to keep his secret.. but no. AGAIN another wasted opportunity and I would have loved to seen the show do more with. More with Dorian guarding his secret of immortality.
- Jekyll and Hyde, just SO MUCH built up to it his character and his motives and backstory and ALL those monologues… aaaaaand then nothing. MAD.
- Ethan and his father and Kaetenay, both his father storylines were wrapped up so quickly. They didn’t use Brian Cox enough, and I really enjoyed his scenes with Timothy Dalton.
- Lilys storyline made out to be so epic… then went no where.
- Patti Lupone and Christian Camargo both had amazing scenes and are SUCH incredible actors and could have had so much more screen time in season 4.
- PATTI LUPONEEEEEeEEEEeeEEEEEEeE need I say more?
- John Clare, I wanted to know how he died!! AND I WANTED HIM TO FIND LOVE AND HAVE CLOSURE. ALSO JUST MORE SCENES WITH RORY AND EVA IN GENERAL!!!!
- Vanessa, deserved better... she started the beginning of the season in bad place in this season and started to grow and enjoy life again.. just for it to end like that…
Agree…but also it was somehow open and tragic and beautiful. We saw what we saw and the rest is what it is.
Dear Vanessa,
your many kindnesses I will always carry with me. Such generosity has not been a part of my life and I thank you, for your affection and understanding. In my most frightened and lonely moments, you were there. And such light you brought to me.
But I am made for the dark, this we both know. I am fit for only one place and should have been there, long ago. Deep in the cold clay on a forgotten hill. Your road may be difficult but mine is doomed. So we walk alone.
Written with love,
Ethan.So we walk alone.
