I thought it was always interesting.

Eva Green is phenomenal, as usual.

The character who left the greatest impression on me was Alex Price's performance as Proteus.
I can't get that character out of my head. What a marvelous and all too brief acting job. Do you agree?

For me - a horror fan - his final scene was the most memorable!

The show's bigwigs say otherwise, but if that wasn't a rushed hashjob because of an unexpected cancellation, I'll eat the DVDs. Never really broke 800k viewers and can you imagine what it cost?
