Warning: If you’re the sort of person to faint when you nick yourself shaving, you may be six degrees of squicked* out by Fox’s new serial killer thriller The Following.

It’s hella bloody. It’s scary. And there are a bunch of pointy things thrust into soft body parts – and not in the fun way. But the show is pretty great, so it’s worth it. Even the gouged-out eyeballs. (And there are a lot of gouged-out eyeballs.) Enough set-up: Let’s review the series’ pilot, and then we want to know what you think.

England ended up 127 for two after a damp and cagey first day of play, with Jonathan Trott unbeaten on 58

Morning everyone. How are you feeling this morning? Palms a little moist? Brow a touch fevered?

Still, the casting for this thing has me curious, and E! Online's Watch with Kristin offered up some names on exactly who will be playing who in B&S: The Early Years. We've got the side by side pictures for you so you can...
