Still raining, so I'm watching tv shows

I've started binge-watching the new season of Orange Is The New Black. Poussey remains my favourite!

I also watched Game of Thrones and Penny Dreadful. Writing isn't both shows' forte (GoT is all about the visuals, the action and the spectacle; PD is all about the atmosphere and Eva Green's performances) and I would even say that they suck at plotting, but the latest episode of Game of Thrones couldn't have been more cliché, predictable and telegraphed...while I really didn't expect that finale from Penny Dreadful!

The PD finale was definitely a surprise but it was also so rushed...and filled with new timeline nonsense - in one scene it seemed that a few weeks had passed from the previous week's episode, which would make sense in terms of travel logistics, but then another scene seemed to happen only a few minutes after! - and laughable convenient stuff. Oh well, there were still some great shots of Timothy Dalton's green eyes.

Now I'm hoping for a good second season of Mr Robot.

When is RECTIFY coming back?

ETA:So it's confirmed

LJ won't let me post the link to the article, but the season's finale was also the series' finale. Logan said it so.

ETA2 : Let's see if Lj lets me post this one!
