Season 1 of this show was gripping because of the background stories we saw on all of Joe's followers. The way he interviewed them and gave them permission to kill...
Season 2 was just ho-hum as he inherited followers from a cult leader he killed. I don't get why these people are loyal to kill for Joe.
Also, I can't believe the writers want us to believe the FBI is this baffled and inept in their jobs as this show portrays. It's insulting to the viewer.
Season 1 had my 100% attention. Season 2 was about 60%. Beef it up in a believable way if you want to keep your viewership.

The Following is a good show. But they really should have kept the Firm on!!!!

A rip off of "silence of the lambs" and "dexter"- has potential but there are too many unbelievable plot lines, poor timing and choppy editing to be worth watching. I wouldn't waste the time.

Kevin Bacon is managing to hold this show together other wise it is a disaster. Season one was believable season 2 has gone totally over the top and lost me completely! so I don't think I will bother with season 3!

Calm down folks. It's a fun show to watch and much better than most out there. Is it always believable ...no but they have a lot of plot twists to fit into a one hour show. I just read that FOX renewed it for another season so obviously someone is watching.

Now that Clair is back I will no longer watch this show. Never liked her and she is a user and responsible for all of Ryan's problems. Also he becomes an a.. for her! Not my type of watching! Bye bye!

I like the show and as for Gregg who wrote>>>>>
he writing on the show is regurgitated crap. I've noticed that the kind of people that like the show tend to be intellectually challenged.
<<<<<
Gregg you just are not intelligent enough to understand it ..
