Watch in HD! This is my tribute to the wonderful characters of Penny Dreadful. ► song: cold - jorge mendez ► themes: faith, religion, good/evil, love, passions, sins.
Everything everyone of these characters has said has impacted me in such a huge way. I have to finish this show. There is no other show like it. The words, the bond, the music. It's captivating to a t. This is really humanity peeled back and examined like no other. Our weaknesses and strengths all in one blow.
This show has a special place in my life, I keep coming back to it. It is so beautiful, to say the least. Each character development is so engaging and captivating. No other show could come close to this one.
Very good tribute! It shows the sadness and despair of the show, but there is still some hope shining through... "There will be battles we lose" - Sad thing is, every battle they had, even the victories, led them to ultimate losing... That's terribly depressing.
I must be honest here.... This is... one of the most... stunning pieces I've ever seen. It is a masterpiece. You can feel the melancholy coming off the screen, the heartache, the tragedy. The unfairness of it all! Their rueful smiles are the barest reprieve. No video has ever made me react so fiercely (Read: openly sobbing) such as this. Thank you.
''Remember us better then we are..''. A beautifully sad quote that perfectly encapsulates the human spirit. Flawed. But we all wish to be better, do we not?
No Better performance, no greater piece, and no more creative art than this spectacular show for television... depicting the human condition...in its darkest and deepest spaces ... internal and external and its most beautiful irony. I have watched it over and over again like a good book.
+BloodlessAgain I don't know why but I would like to talk to you. I love penny dreadful also and nobody seems to get the series, Noone got it that's why it was canceled. Only a few around the world are the ones who connected with it and I think we are blessed by it
Now that our beloved PD has been pushed into an end in such an unsatisfactory way, I will try to deal with this tragedy, so that I can 'remember PD better than how it ended'...just as the last message in this video. In the midst of all it's darkness, PD was a story of how people never let go of hope even in the worst of times. A shed of a tear, an emotional hug, a fragile kiss, a confession of remorse were what made us sympathize and understand the characters as their struggles and sorrows were somehow similar to what we experience in real life. I'm appreciative to this video more than ever now, as I believe it grasped the true nature of each character. Even more than creator J.Logan or Showtime. BloodlessAgain, thank you once again for this. It's just about the only thing which can bring some comfort for me now.
By the time I finished this show, I cried buckets of tears! My face was total mess :P How can this show is filled with characters who are inhuman creatures but are the most human characters I've known?! That's one of the geniuses of Penny Dreadful. I'm just sad that they don't make this show any more :(( It truly was a rare gem of television.
Most poetic penny dreadful video I've ever seen. I forgot this show had so many good lines "there are such sins at my back it would kill me to turn around", "if you seek to threaten me, threaten me with life", "oh my creator, why did you not make me of steel and stone, why did you allow me to feel". Really, perfect choice of music & moments
I'm so obssessed with this video. Thank you very much for doing something so insipational and for giving the characters a beautiful expression of their essence, inner battles and pain.
You've done it. Thank you for sharing this beautiful tribute to the sweet, captivating characters of a tremendous heartrending TV show. Damned! Such sharp comments hurt feelings and souls by proclaiming the one truth; perfectly, in my opinion at least.
I have to say that this is very beautifully made video. It brought to my mind, all the beauty and the sadness of the show. "You seek to threaten me with death? If you seek to threaten me, threaten me with life..."
I wanted more of this masterpiece series. There is nothing like it on T.V. The way it ended so abruptly with "The End" I felt was disrespectful to the loyal fans.
Update: I'm almost finished with season 2, and I'm obsessed. Forgot how it felt to genuinely love a show and its characters (haven't seen a good show in a really long time)... So thank you for this!!! I adore everyone, especially Vanessa and Ethan :)
This is insanely good. The core of every character is in there. Really good job. You should send it to Penny Dreadful. Anyway I'm sharing this to them !
I usually dont do reviews, or in this case reminders, about shows, but hey.. why not? Exactly 6 years ago „Penny Dreadful“ was released to a broader audience. The name of the show, look it up on Wiki, refers to „… the penny dreadfuls, a type of 19th-century British fiction publication with lurid and sensational subject matter.“ I grew up on a comparable, fantastic weekly, „Perry Rhodan“. Cheesy, loveable, over the top, never-ending Sci-Fi. The booklets are still a thing, running strong for almost 60 years. Why do I highlight „Penny Dreadful“? Out of all those shows so easily available to us? Because it had it all. A perfect mixture of entertainment, victorian style, literature, pulp fiction, acting as an art and raw fucking emotion. Most shows just have one or two of those ingredients. Lets pick it apart. Its not artsie, it follows the well known rules of TV entertainment. Dialog, conflict, tension, relationships and last minute cliffhangers. Collect your daily dose of dopamins. But then you start to wonder. The recreation of the period is meticulously done, down to the button on a dress. Then you spot the quotes from well known books which accually fit the plot. You are amused about the introduction of prototypical monsters like frankenstein, vampires, werewolfs, witches and Dorian Gray(!), … but always done in good taste, never making you feel ashamed for someone else. You stay put and make it to the episode „A Blade of Grass“ in season three. The intensity will make you forget about your TV-screen. It is theater level acting. Not enough to peek your interest? Stay with me. Modern TV-shows, in general, fail over the compromise to depict women realistically and empathically, but also make them the lead. They turn out either girly or manly. Vanessa is the antithesis to this. Strong, feminine to the bone, smart, an independent spirit, painfully bound to 19th century constrains. Indeed all characters are complex and falible. The message peaks in a subplot which explores the female realm of possibility instead of spamming dull, woke feminism so common these days, not only in cinema... Lily´s heartbreaking outburst in "Perpetual Night" will pull the rug under your feet. This one episode has done more for the cause of women than any #meetoo tweet ever could. I was already satisfied at this point. What else could happen? Well, .. there is more. I do believe that music makes or breaks a film. Just look at Star Wars, 40 years on. Episode 4 is nearly unwatchable in 2020, … but the soundtrack, damn baby, makes it relevant! The finale of „Penny Dreadful“ had one more surprise in store. The music is so important, and once the finale hit, it did so hard. One question remains. I´m wishing beyond reason at this point. But i would love to see a TV-show, or movie, of this quality based on „Perry Rhodan“ at some point. Maybe dreams do come true?
You my friend, have created a masterpiece... This is one series that I'll be watching over and over because of the way it portrayed the truth about humanity- which is never as pretty as it's usually portrayed...Thank you for all your hard work!!!
Why did I only see this video just now?? Im sorry to say but i stopped watching in the middle of season 3, but this video reminded me of everything I love about this show... the relationship not only between fairytales but also all living creatures :)
interesting! I like this. But can't imagine what kind of effort,talent, and time it would take to make this. I advise you keep doing this, who knows what will happen. Who knows when all mighty will show you something
This series has such HUGE themes. John Logan is a brilliant writer and this entire cast give outstanding performances. Your video is wonderful. Love your editing and selection of dialogue. Well done 👏 Just finished bingeing the series again on VOD.
I'm not sure of god, demon, or alike sorts, and I don't like uncertain things. But I believe human can be better than who we think we are. At first I don't think much about the show, just want to see and solve some mysterious. After a while, I start to believe it is so much more than that.
Great video. I don't ever subscribe to an individual like this unless it's something to repair things but you are the exception. This was a great show thanks
This series, there really are no words to describe how deeply this show touched me. I'm so happy came across this gem. The sets, the acting, the amazing music.
i,ve only just watched the series in a box set,i was rivited i found it coverd all feelings,i cried laughed,it was brilliant,my praise goes out to all the actors & everyone involved the story took you to every feeling & left me emotionally drained( in a good way, also the beautiful scotish folk song when will we meet again 'sweetheart' bought on the tears, awesome people Tracy xx
Kindness has nothing to do with it. :) Very admirable work my friend, you are very tuned in I believe. You captured it's immensities in truth(s) not only with this lovely program but life's deeper meanings which was your purpose and you were triumphant. Thank you again. J.A.Dolan
WOW! Seriously impressed by the tribute. I've found a few decent ones for the show on RU-vid, but none that are nearly on this level. All the right scenes at the right times, and what made the video were the perfect quotes and scenes from the show that you selected. The music flowed perfectly with the audio from the scenes (also happy you included the werewolf scene even for a second, not many have surprisingly). Really well done with showing the emotion and weight of it all. Can't wait for Season 2 next year! Liked and favorited! :)
Thank you! I don't really know what to say. The show is amazing, we all know that, and I just wanted to give it the right tribute. Thank you, again! Can't wait for season 2, too!
My brother OD’d and this is my tribute to him. Him and I really. I wear his ashes in my silver bracelet so he’s with me at all times. I had cancer and beat it. It was my time not his. Ages 45/47. I miss you bro. Only sibling and the greatest a sister could ever have.
I want you to know that because of this video I am sobbing, and I've never even heard of this show much less watched it. I NEED to watch it now. Thank you; you are so talented.
That's such an honour for me. I love Penny Dreadful. This show inspired me so much and I'm so grateful I can convince people to watch it. It deserves so much. You should watch it because it's truly amazing. Thank you so much!
