About The Following
The Following follows ex agent Ryan Hardy chasing killer Joe Carroll and his mask cult across three Fox seasons from 2013. Season 1 sets the Poe obsession and the Hardy stabbing across 15 episodes while Weston and Parker learn that followers hide in plain sight and every rescue hides a trap.
Season 2 rebuilds the cult with new twins and a hidden compound, while season 3 jumps a year to a quieter Hardy pulled back for a final network built on tech lures and staged deaths. Carroll sermons spread through new recruits in each town, so the cult tricks only land when the follower reveals stack in order without skips.
Good to know
Watch seasons 1 through 3 in broadcast order, since cult members return under new masks each year. The cases reset weekly but the Carroll obsession does not, so keep follower reveals in place for each trap and rescue that tests Hardy nerve. The 2015 finale ends Hardy run with no revival dated, so treat the three seasons as complete as of this check.
