Cast: Kevin Bacon, James Purefoy, Shawn Ashmore, Natalie Zea and Jeananne Goossen.
Created By: Kevin Williamson
About: The Following stars Kevin Bacon as an FBI agent who sets out to catch a serial killer. The killer, played by James Purefoy, has spawned an entire cult of serial killers, which I imagine makes for a fun task for the FBI agent. [tv.com]
Our Opinion: Before I watched the trailer for the series, I didn't think much of it other than a Kevin Bacon show. Not to mention there is much to the crime solving genre already. Once I watch the trailer, I quickly changed my opinion and added The Following to my must see list. The Following seems more than just a Kevin Bacon show, but a show about a hunt for a master serial killer, and his followers/trainees. Furthermore, a clash between two minds as the game begins. There is just something really intense I get from The Following, and I hope it does well. Although I do worry that The Following will follow the same path that all shows in this genre does and goes into the drama rather than the mystery. So if you want thrills, mystery, and some Bacon, The Following is your show. The Following premieres January 21, 2013 on FOX and in Canada on CTV. You can check out the trailer below.
