yo these scenes in the concentration camp with the master straight sucking the life out of these dudes, has to be the creepiest scenes on the show so far
 
what would have been a cool closing scene, is exactly what they just showed, but far off in the distance seeing an attack.....something you could just miss in like the upper left hand corner of the screen
 
Is this the first show I'm going to watch since the original "V" that will show the world crumble?

Most shows take place, after it happens, but it looks like the world will collapse next week
 
I said they needed a recovery week after the shitfest that was last week and they had it. Pretty great episode. Still plenty of cheese to fill a sandwich in so far as some of the dialogue/sequences (I was at a nazi camp, let me make you some eggs!) but we got some actual plot progression in a major way. Also love the amped up focus on the horror elements. Rat-catcher dude finding the passengers was legit creepy.

The babysitter being only person on the show to actually have a natural reaction to what she sees right off the bat makes me giggle a little, too. Everyone else see slugs popping out of peoples mouths and they talk as if the first thought in their heads was "That's peculiar". The babysitter sees the lawyer chicks eyes and her sniffing the kids and she be like "NOPE!". hahahah.

Also dug the flashbacks to 1944 and some more flashes of the Master. Next weeks episode looks like shit will finally hit the fan!

Maybe I'm alone but Regina King was looking fine as hell, too.
 
I paused 5 minutes into the new episode.

Can someone tell me why I'm wasting my time on this terrible heap of shit?

"Gabe hurt someone real bad, like permanently" - BITCH WERE YOU NOT AWARE OF THE GIANT FUCKING BLOOD SUCKING APPENDAGE SUCKING THE LIFE OF THAT UROLOGIST? Fucking call the CDC or some shit. The police at least?

This isn't just bad writing anymore. It's ridiculous how bad and full of plotholes this show is and I don't know why I even bother watching this shit.

Jeebus, you should like... stop before you blow an artery or something. I'm seriously concerned for your safety! Perhaps you should talk with a friend about it? Are you OK?
 
God damn this show moves fucking slow. When is it finally going to pick up? I thought the last two episodes were when it was going to pick up.
 
Present day.

Setrakian (the old guy) is the one in the flashbacks, so I am confused by the GQ model comment.
Its just that its been 70 years from 1944 to now and 1944 Setrakian looks at least 20 or so, which means he's supposed to be around 90 in present day?

Just seems a little bit of a stretch that you'd have a 90+ year old vampire hunter going around like he is. Given all the other crazy things happening on the show its not that unbelievable, but I think this was the point being made with saying how 1944 Setrakian should be a little younger.
