‘Penny Dreadful’ Season 3 Trailer: How Much Darker Can This Show Get? By Jack Giroux/Feb. 25, 2016 4:30 pm EST “Embrace your dark side,” the Penny Dreadful season three trailer exclaims. Not a bad tagline for a show about battling internal and external evil forces. The ways in which the characters confront or accept their dark sides has always been one of the main draws of the Showtime series. Showrunner John Logan and everyone involved have got the monsters and set pieces down by now, but it’s the characters that keep me hooked....
