Renfield is SO brilliantly eerie, he really creeps me out. I love how, since the start of the season, he's gone from mild-mannered secretary to raving madman. And as far as I'm aware he's an asylum patient in the Dracula novel so I like how he ended up in the asylum by the end of this episode. I also love how vampiric he now looks even though he actually isn't a vampire.

The smog that's engulfed London since Vanessa submitted to Dracula looks great and really elevates the whole gothic atmosphere and I like the concept of it essentially being a plague.

Billie Piper once again knocked it out of the park (and Victor let her go without giving her the serum, thank God for that!). Justine's death was sad (and Dorian was surprisingly tender about it), so I guess our theory about her killing him was wrong :laugh:

A bit ominous that Vanessa didn't appear in the episode, but obviously we'll see her in all her Mother of Evil glory in the next one. I wonder if she's gone full evil.

I guess we now know why there's been no word of a Season 4 renewal yet. That was the finale of the show. As sad as that is since this is a phenomenal show, I had worried that it would be cancelled abruptly and end without a resolution but they were clearly writing this as an ending.

My jaw dropped when Vanessa died. I sort of expected it because I'd seen a headline on a site earlier saying something like "SPOILER dies!" and I read somewhere else about it feeling like a final episode so I figured it had to be a big chararcter and Vanessa is the main protagonist after all, but still when it happened I was still shocked. Vanessa Ives has to be one of the most tragic characters I've seen on screen and Eva Green has been phenomenal. :love:

When she died, I started thinking that this must be the end because I can't picture a show without Vanessa but it was only when "The End" appeared on screen that it really hit that this was it. I'm just so glad they gave everything a real feeling of finality, even as early as the Lily / Dorian scene I was thinking how much it felt like they were ending the story because of how fitting it seemed (Lily finally leaving Dorian and that last shot of him standing there saying "I'll always be here").

I guess The Creature ends up alone again in the end since his wife told him to not return if he doesn't go to Frankenstein to bring their son back and he chose to bury him at sea instead. Really sad since he'd spent this season to reunite with his family but fitting for the character.

I wish the show continued on because there were so many other stories that could have been told and to suddenly have it all end and wrap up did feel a little quick and rushed in places but it was apparently John Logan's decision for this season to be the end so I'm just glad the show got a real ending. It's been amazing, I'm definitely gonna miss it.

Ugh I don't know how I feel about it all, everyone ended up more miserable than they'd ever been. Not one of them got a halfway happy ending, Vanessa died oh and you know what annoyed most of the whole thing? Lily and Ethan never crossed paths, I'd been waiting for that to happen ever since Frankenstein took her!

I suppose it was fitting really for the tone the whole of the show was anyway, there wasn't really going to be a happy ending but I thought maybe atleast one of them might get that :laugh:

Anyway, over all a brilliant show so beautifully shot, great acting and of course Eva Green was the absolute star of the whole thing
