Could this premise really go further than a season though? After awhile Incould see this turn into a clustfukk of fukkery. Those scenes previewing the season look wild though. The violence goes hard for Fox though aim impressed

I think so. Every episode doesn't have to revolve around the main killer and once his story arc ends they could just introduce a whole new case that only Bacon can solve. Also, it looks like fox is going to let them push it to the limit:manny:

Purefoy was acting he ass off in his scenes and I like how they aren't toning down the violence.
I also think this could last for a few seasons since they are only shooting 14 episodes per season. That means each season could deal with a few of Carroll's followers.

I see shows like this now, and i think to myself: "Man, this would be 100x better if it were on hbo or showtime."

First episode was dope. :leon:

I don't see how this can last for more than one season though. They can't go on forever with this storyline.

I think they could get 2 or 3 good seasons out of it, definitely not 6 though.

Decent show, it's just something about network television that just doesn't do it for me.

I'll admit that initially the show started of giving me the :shaq2: with what was going on.

The dude escaping from prison had to be explained like it was because I was ready to call bullshyt from the jump. The random woman stabbing herself was a pointless scene IMO. Just there to provide some cringe worthy violence. And thank god they killed off the gay neighbor shyt. I hate when these shows just throw in some fags just for the fukk of it. Hopefully they're done with that.

If it didn't wrap up those things for me, I might of thrown this shyt in the bushes before the 2nd episode started.

I think it has potential to be something in the same vein as Luther (maybe?) but we'll see.
