It was cleared that "Penny Dreadful" Season 4 will not be put off. It is said that average ratings of its current season will not affect Showtime's renewal of the series for its Season 4, which is set to be announced before "Penny Dreadful" Season 3 finale episode.
Although many viewers are left in the dark as to the plans of the network on "Penny Dreadful," they remain positive that the network will still air another season. After all, history proves that the network is not very fond of cancelling shows without giving their viewers the satisfaction of having their favorite characters do a graceful and powerful ending that would leave them in awe.
Among the things that should be ultimately explored and properly ended in "Penny Dreadful" Season 4 is the Ethan-Vanessa love line. In fact, in the recent poll by Carter Matt, approximately 99.4 percent of the viewers are eager to have the show renewed for "Penny Dreadful" Season 4.
Before the airing of the last episode of the latest season, rumors of the cancellation of the show have been buzzing on entertainment niches, which was not easily accepted by many of the Eva-Green led series who immediately expressed their disappointments.
Coupling fans' shout that "Penny Dreadful" has been one of the best shows appeared in the small screen. The highlight of the reasons why the show has more to say, according to Inverse, is its well-deserved portrayal of feminism and misandry, which are the topics that would most likely arouse criticisms. Another reason why "Penny Dreadful" should not end is because of its refreshing use of literary characters to tell interesting stories.
Avid fans of the series also said that there are other shows that are more deserving to be dreadfully cut, and if the network will really decide to push through this rumored cancellation of "Penny Dreadful" Season 4, then they sure have to cancel said other shows first.
Forbes also claimed that occasional dropping of ratings is not something to worry about as it is always be a part of any program.
