The show's premiere episode scored the highest-ever ratings for a new series debut on HBO, and the series proved itself this fall in one of television's most conspicuous timeslots. Audience numbers surged especially in the final weeks of season one, and a live chat with series stars Nick Stahl and Clancy Brown immediately following the final episode drew a the largest crowd of participants in HBO.com's ten-year history. "The fans have been so passionate," says series creator and executive producer Daniel Knauf. "I read virtually every web posting there is. The postings aren't, 'Hey dude, bitchin' episode.' We get people who feel like this is like a big part of their lives. To me, that's insanely satisfying." Carnivāle executive producer Howard Klein promises fans more of the supernatural intrigue that has been the show's hallmark. "We are obviously thrilled with the positive response that the show's generated in its first season," he says. "It's also great to see on the website how devoted fans discuss, debate and even argue with each other about every detail of the show. We look forward to another great season with even more twists and turns for them to figure out." Can't wait for the twists and turns? Visit HBO.com for an upcoming interview with Knauf as he looks back at season one and makes some predictions about season two. "We're just gonna try to continue to blow minds, you know." he says. "And take people to places they've never been before."

Maybe that means it will come to Australia sometime? What is the show like? I mean, besides Clea being in it. Is it any good? I tried downloading the first episode but my computer is almost dead...

But... pretty much all HBO shows are good . At www.themidway.org they have transcripts available. At least it'll give you the general idea in which the show is headed, although you won't get to see the kick ass cinematography.
