Bacon works hard trying to sell depressingly heavy-handed material, but The Following seems poised to remain one of the most unpleasant watches on television. [6 Mar 2015, p.74]
The cast is actually quite good, including some interesting additions in the early going.... But the best thing now would be to provide fans some closure, while bringing The Following--and the killing--to an end.

SEASON 3
[For entire series] An unbelievably ridiculous, dumb, so repetitively preposterous as to be laughable excuse for a show which really is just capitalizing on sadistic violence perpetrated by cartoon quality 2 dimensional cutout robot characters. That's not because they are in a cult, it's because the dim witted talentless writers of this travesty skipped out of school and went to Hollywood where they found the even lower toads masquerading as executives at Fox. These morons try to pass off the same absurd implausible nonsense of someone somehow against all reason breaking into and hiding in high security places and jumping out at the victims in shock… over and over and over and over. Then there's the idiotically phony escapes to get out of a fix… over and over and over and over and over. Does Kevin Bacon (an otherwise good actor) not read the scripts with any kind of oversight of the overarching ludicrousness of what he is asked to do over and over and over and over? It's as if the jackasses at Fox told the **** writers, "No no it's okay the audience has seen this all before 10,000 times and usually done better, the graphic violence will keep them tuned in." Someone should stab these slut **** purveyors of sinister scum the same way their stupid evil incarnate characters mind numbingly, predictably, graphically do in every episode thus helping to further degrade our culture in the process! This show is a menace to society.
Yet it's a hit, and shamefully I watched all three seasons so far. That's it though!

SEASON 3
We don’t even get away from those awful homages to Edgar Allen Poe that used to stud the show’s Joe Carroll scripts--the new season contains murderous rhymes with terrible scansion such as, “While you lie/More die.” Written in blood, of course.
Hard to believe that The Following couldn't improve upon the trainwrecks of Seasons 1 and 2, but they did it and officially cemented this show as one of the worst ever. The implausible and predictable plot turns continue, but are even dumber than they ever were. Congratulations to the show's writers, despite their long Pre-K school days, they have accomplished the unthinkable and put the finishing touches on the worst show ever.
