"This is not the United States of America."

No, and it was not "Penny Dreadful" either.

It was a very good show that had no business being connected to the previous incarnation known as "Penny Dreadful". The only show misnomer worse I can recall is "Friday the 13th: the Series" which had zip to do with Jason, the movie franchise, or anything to do with Friday or the 13th itself! Yet it too was a very good genre show; just saddled with a misleading name.

This show was a soap about race, religion, and Nazi's in pre WWII LA. Yes there was a mild supernatural element; but even in the end it did not play out nor pay off.

From the lack of votes in the ratings on IMDB I fail to see how the show will get renewed. Unless it is "just because". That happens a lot, like most WB shows that do lousy in rating yet keep getting renewals. There is a math behind it but I won't bore you all with those details.

Thus we may see a season two.
