I have never started a new thread before, so I hope this is ok... I've just recently watched the first 3 episodes of 'The Following'. It's a really dark and interesting new show with Kevin Bacon as the lead character. The show is about a serial killer, Joe Carroll, who has murdered 14 young women and got caught by Kevin Bacon's character. The show takes place 10 years after the 14 murders and when Joe (James Purefoy) has started to gain a following. The show also features a gay couple: Will and Billy. We meet them in the first episode because they are neighbors and best friends with the only girl who survived Joe killings. But there is more to Will and Billy's relationship than meets the eye... AfterElton is also posting recaps of the episodes and they've posted a spoilery interview with Andan Canto and Nico Tortorella who play Billy and Will: www.afterelton.com/2013/02/gay-not-gay-on-the-following

Oh and Nanii you did very well for creating your first thread Thank you kevvoi! That means a lot coming from you! ;D I just found this little sneak peek for episode 4 "Mad Love". Apparently Jacob has a secret he's been hiding from Emma. I'm so hooked on this show! I can't wait for all the secrets and stories to unravel!

If we could decide who we loved, it would be much simpler, but less magical.

I haven't seen this show, I think it's on the same time as another show I watch. Does Jacob lean more towards Paul or Emma? Or is he all about team Jacob all the way?

So far, I think all of them care most about themselves - and Joe. And I thought that when Paul brought home the girl he captured the story would be about him, but it seems like it's all about Jacob (from what I can tell)... And I think both Paul and Jacob are confused about their time alone together for 3 years and what to do about it now, now that Emma is back in their lives.

I see where it was just the two of them in the created world for three years. And suddenly Emma is back in their lives and neither knows how to function?

I think Paul might want to continue the relationship a little more than Jacob want to at the moment. But that could be because Paul don't have an 'Emma'. Jacob was in a relationship with Emma before he was with Paul. So far, we don't know if Paul had a girlfriend before moving in with Jacob (but I doubt it). But I don't know what would happen between Jacob and Paul if you took Emma out of the equation.

But they're not actually gay right? Weren't they just pretending to be gay to get the kid? Both Paul and Jacob say they are straight and Jacob is in a relationship with Emma. Paul and Jacob pretended to be gay, so they could be close to Sarah - the girl that Joe Carroll didn't managed to kill because of Ryan Harding (Kevin Bacon). But Paul and Jacob have been living as a couple for three years (to fool Sarah and get close to her, so that she trust them) and in a flashback, we see Paul and Jacob making out and most likely going further than that. And when they move in to the other house with Emma and Joey, Paul want to share the bedroom with Jacob and ask Emma 'if it's ok that they are no longer pretending to be gay in front of Joey'? And Emma just explain that they don't have to be gay any more, though Paul looks a bit sad when she says it.

OMG! A lot happened in episode 6. Shit just got real! Can't believe Emma left Paul and Jacob to fend for themselves. I hope Paul survive!

wow.. the last episode was just.. wow. No words really.
Here is what I think will happen in the next episode (it's NOT a spoiler, just me speculating). Jacob will admit his feelings to Paul before he dies. Then Jacob goes after Emma for revenge because she just went off and left them alone. I have a feeling Emma will be Jacob's first murder, OR she will just be captured and handed over to the police. Then the kid will be released to his mom.

That will leave Jacob all alone and I can't picture him as an 'one man army'. He hasn't killed anyone yet, so as much as he probably would like to kill Emma at the moment I can't see him doing it alone. (And I can't believe I'm rooting for the bad guys to survive. ;D)

I hope he won't die too.. obviously. BUT he has lost a lot of blood, and I could see them doing a bittersweet ending for Jacob and Paul. I just have a really bad feeling that they won't last much longer. Jacob will be so angry over Paul's death that he will go after Emma for revenge. I can just see it happening. I hope I'm wrong though. I really don't want Paul to die

I think we did see how Jacob feels about Paul in the last scene in the car. And Jacob saying in the last couple of episodes that he isn't gay, I think, is because he can't comprehend that he's in love with two people. And he might not be gay, it's more likely that he's bi - he just have to come to terms with it. I think all the followers will have a bittersweet ending. But I don't understand, if Paul is going to die in the next episode what purpose would it have? Why didn't they just let him die in this episode? But that might be because I can't see Jacob being alone without Paul or Emma and still be a follower. I could be wrong though. And Jacob better take his man to a doctor so he doesn't die. I'm not sure I could forgive him otherwise. ;D

I think that they're the best part of this show. Don't know how they would make a second season with these characters... And Jacob and Paul have already been together, so now that Emma is out of the picture - who knows if they will get together again? Paul is definitely in love with Jacob!
