Wired.com presents the Geek's Guide to the Galaxy. And here is your host, David Barr-Kirtley.

Hello and welcome to episode 210 of Geek's Guide to the Galaxy.

Today on the show we'll be discussing the Showtime TV series Penny Dreadful,

a gothic drama featuring classic characters from Victorian literature such as

Dracula, Dorian Gray, and Dr. Frankenstein.

The show recently concluded its third and final season, and this will involve spoilers for

all three seasons, so just be aware of that.

And I'm joined by three guests. So first up we've got Theresa

Delucci, making her sixth appearance on the show. She's written about Hannibal and Twin Peaks

for Boing Boing, and she's also a frequent guest on Den of Geek's You Still Know Nothing, Game of Thrones

podcast. Her article Five Reasons to Watch Penny Dreadful recently appeared on tour.com.

So Teresa, welcome to the show.

Hi, thanks for having me back.

Then next up we've got Christy Yant, who you may remember from our panel on Douglas Adams back in

episode 42, and our panel on Women Destroy Science Fiction back in episode 42 and our panel on Women Destroy Science Fiction

back in episode 112. She's the assistant editor of Lightspeed magazine and

her writer and editor for the independent comics publisher Kimerra Press. Her short fiction appears in books such as the

year's best science fiction and fantasy and in magazines such as Analog and Science Fiction

World. So Christie, welcome to the show.

Hey Dave, glad to be back.

And also joining us today is Angela Watercutter, who you may remember from our panel on Jupiter Ascending

back in episode 138.
