Renewed for Season 2

Awesome, need to get my brothers to start watching now.

 

[TheOddOne]

New episode today:

Season 1: episode 6 "Occultation"

Spoiler

Following a warning Kelly to leave the city with Zack ahead of the spreading plague, Eph is arrested by the FBI. Eichhorst has one final job for Gus, while Setrakian realizes that the coming eclipse is the tipping point for virus infection and the beginning of the end.

 

[raindoc]

Been watching the show and reading books 1&2 last week, but I must've missed something:

Spoiler

how the @&€%#! were all the passengers on the plane infected within seconds/a couple of minutes?
yes, they had "the mark" on their necks, but it's been stated over and over again that there was no sign of struggle. Am I really supposed to believe that The Master is that fast? we're talking about ~300 people, being stung in the neck, without anyone noticing, not even the guys in the last row of an international flight that just landed?

 

[Frog-fu]

The bolded is the easiest part to understand about her motivations. She doesn't want her career to sink after she's associated with a murderous client. The show explained that clearly, or so I thought.

Okay, so she was scared out of her wits but managed to keep her reputation in mind, which she was supposedly protecting by covering up a murder she was blameless in? How would that even be on someone's mind when they just saw a gruesome death? I don't buy it.

They were presumably sedated by his psychic will.

I think you underestimate just how often people cover up the misdeeds of others in the real world, especially when their quality of life is on the line.

 

[Draconian]

Just watched last week's episode, which I thought was the best one yet. Some of the complaints are hilarious here.

NOBODY HAS PAPERCLIPS IN THEIR POCKETS.

THAT'S SETRAKIAN? HE LOOKS 25. HE'D BE IN HIS NINETIES NOW.

I bet some of you guys are a ton of fun to watch TV shows and movies with.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Looks like I finished the last episode just in time. I completely forgot about this show last week, lol. Anyway, it was a really good watch. One of the best episodes of the season so far.

Edit: It's time!

 

[Jarrod38]

And here we go.

 

[Draconian]

Should be an awesome episode tonight.

 

[KibblesBits]

What a terrible mess.

 

[Jarrod38]

So that is Joan River's true form and how she lives forever.

 

[Baroquemantic]

So that is Joan River's true form and how she lives forever.

Haha!

I don't know man. Unless she's been sucking out silicone or something from someone who's had too much surgery, cause she looks plastic.

 

[kingkitty]

show them the video bruh

 

[Draconian]

show them the video bruh

Like that's gonna matter. Dude called the FBI as soon as he saw him in there.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I hope they eat the rat boyfriend

 

[Not a Jellyfish]

I really feel like this show is hitting its stride, it isn't great but it is pretty solid.

But really, show your family the video instead of screaming like a crazy person.

 

[Ponn]

She won't run. Everyone so far has done exactly the opposite of what they should do. Except the rat catcher guy and the old man.

 

[kingkitty]

Like that's gonna matter. Dude called the FBI as soon as he saw him in there.

He could at least make the wife a true believer.

I wonder if Eph uploaded the vid to cloud storage.

 

[Jarrod38]

Once The Simpsons marathon hits I think productivity is going to do down.

 

[Somnia]

He doesn't have the phone to show the video people, he gave it to Mr. Goonie

 

[bomb]

Cant wait to see that rebound turn.

 

[Not a Jellyfish]

He doesn't have the phone to show the video people, he gave it to Mr. Goonie

I thought he only gave him the sim card.

 

[Draconian]

Haha boyfriend demoted to guest status. Someone needs to go to the game room and take his mind off of things.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Surprised she took his advice. And new boyfriend needs to get got. Don't like him.

 

[Somnia]

I thought he only gave him the sim card.

Pretty sure he gave him the phone so he could try to "do his job" as he kept telling him.

 

[Jarrod38]

Shit that was crazy.

 

[Draconian]

I hope no one walks into that basement anytime soon.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Legit thought boss ass old guy was about to meet his end.

Edit: Yeah, humanity is doomed.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Poor guy. Feels like he's alone.

 

[kingkitty]

Pretty sure he gave him the phone so he could try to "do his job" as he kept telling him.

Eph kept the phone.

That's why they used the paperclip to get the sim card out, so he wouldn't be tracked, while still keeping the video.

 

[Draconian]

Gus has had that coming ever since he was introduced.

 

[Baroquemantic]

The German is too good a villain. He needs to go.

 

[bomb]

That vamp has a strong core. Took those body blows like a champ.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Looks like this is a job for either the green lantern or aquaman.

 

[Jarrod38]

Lack luster first half so far. Hope the last half picks up.

 

[Not a Jellyfish]

God damn it Sam.

 

[Draconian]

lol Sam again. When will he ever learn?

 

[KibblesBits]

Yes, go into the subway right before an eclipse. Yes.

 

[kingkitty]

Sam is just the worst.

 

[Draconian]

Man, why did the cute looking secretary have to get infected?

 

[Not a Jellyfish]

Rat guy is a bad ass.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

This guy is awesome.

 

[Burt]

Okay I change my mind, maybe this shows just bad. There's definitely a ton that's salvageable, but they need to get out of this early breakout shit as soon as possible so Eph can stop telling people what to do while refusing to explain absolutely anything.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Rat guy is a bad ass.

Yep, badass is basically his description in every movie or tv show he's in.

 

[Somnia]

Okay I change my mind, maybe this shows just bad. There's definitely a ton that's salvageable, but they need to get out of this early breakout shit as soon as possible so Eph can stop telling people what to do while refusing to explain absolutely anything.

Its pretty obvious shit will be exploding soon, first season is clearly just setting it all up.

 

[Somnia]

Eph kept the phone.

That's why they used the paperclip to get the sim card out, so he wouldn't be tracked, while still keeping the video.

I'm pretty fucking sure Sam has the phone. They took it out so the phone wasn't tracked, but gave it to Sam so he could try to convince people.

 

[charsace]

In visual form the wife's stupidity angers me more than it did in the book. You divorced the guy because he cared more about his work than anything else. He tells you shit has hit the fan and you ignore him.

 

[Jarrod38]

 

[Baroquemantic]

Does everyone on this show have family issues?

 

[kingkitty]

I'm pretty fucking sure Sam has the phone. They took it out so the phone wasn't tracked, but gave it to Sam so he could try to convince people.

You're wrong.
