Hey guys – Sarah from SciFriday here. Surprise! Enjoy a brief review of the new show, “The Following” (Fox). If we’re being honest, I first wanted to watch “The Following” because it’s a show about serial killers and it has Kevin Bacon in it. If we’re still being honest, that’s why I’ll watch the whole…
