I think the elixir is for healing alone.

That still makes no sense.

Spoiler

The Master's grand plan does not include the weak or elderly.

 

[wildfire]

Wait.

Did Palmer get turned?

Remember what I said in an earlier post about what the master likes to do?

Spoiler

Well if you watched the preview it turns out Palmer gets pissed because the Master made him healthy instead of immortal.

 

[Deified Data]

I think the elixir is for healing alone.

Book spoilers:

Spoiler

While Palmer was never administered any of the Master's blood in the books, certain other characters were. What it does is temporarily relieve the physical maladies of whoever drinks it. Palmer isn't being healed, he's being temporarily made able-bodied so that he can serve his purpose. If the Master never hooks him up with another infusion, Palmer is going to degrade to his former state.

Those SWATpires better have cleared out those other containers as well.
Like seriously, you are trying to kill rampant vampires, and it looks like you got a fuck ton of them all locked up and waiting for you.

It was just the one container, the guy mentioned it when handing the cash over that they delivered their container to x/y area of the dock.

For all we know they aren't really there to wipe out the random vampires, who knows what their ultimate goal is... well except for you book readers!

 

[a secret-boss]

I was telling myself wats the point of this stick up side story then Vampire Swat out of nowhere = insta cool

I like Abraham's flashback

 

[gryvan]

on a plus note, I can actually catch up on the readings and finish the trilogy before season 2 begins

 

[RatskyWatsky]

Eh, that episode felt like filler. A few interesting things happened (The TV broadcast was neat and Nora's mom is finally gone, thank god) but for the most part it felt like they were just biding their time til the finale.

Also, the part where the two dudes started shooting at each other while being overrun by vampires was so fucking dumb. Ugh.

 

[Dsyndrome]

I want more Harbinger-like takeovers of the drones like down in the well, creepier than the master himself.

 

[SquiddyCracker]

Surprised there are not "I AM ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL"-memes involving the master.

 

[Dysun]

So glad they finally dumped the Grandmother.

 

[Revolver]

Seemed like a filler episode but it wasn't too bad. Anytime Eichorst or the hit squad show up the show gets better IMO. I don't mind Gus these days either. Plus Nora's mom is out of the way so that's one less useless character hanging around. Now if the kid would just disappear. I get the feeling he's going to be this show's version of Carl though.

 

[Santiako]

Eichorst is a much better villain than the master. I'd like it if somehow he became the new master.

 

[Alpende]

They keep teasing that vampire SWAT team. I want to know more about them. I hope they show up in the finale, season 2 would be a long wait.

 

[jelly]

Are Palmer's staff going to do anything but watch. I know they let the others go but what is their plan?

 

[sunofsam]

I like Abraham's flashback

The kids of any significance other than it would suck to have to cut off the head of your wife and a couple neighbourhood kids?

 

[a secret-boss]

The kids of any significance other than it would suck to have to cut off the head of your wife and a couple neighbourhood kids?

She wanted kids. Master gave him a kid... to cut

 

[sunofsam]

She wanted kids. Master gave him a kid... to cut

Damn, that's

Ratsky's much beloved series has its season finale today:

Season 1: episode 13 "The Master"

Spoiler

Eph and Fet recon for an all-out assault that Setrakian assures them will finally kill the Master. Gus aligns himself with a strange new force, one that may swing the fight in an unforeseen direction.

 

[Alpende]

I NEED that vampire squad in the finale. They're the best thing about this show so far.

 

[Funky Papa]

Will Ratsky bless us with a review of the season finale?

I also need more VampSWAT, btw. Those dudes are gnarly as fuck.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

Ratsky's much beloved series has its season finale today:

Finally, the finale!

Will Ratsky bless us with a review of the season finale?

Probably just a one sentence one u__u

 

[Ingueferroque]

My opinion of this show took a nose dive about six or seven episodes ago.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

This show has been terribad from the start. It is about vampires though, so I watched it.

[RatskyWatsky]

My opinion of this show took a nose dive about six or seven episodes ago.

I think the show "took a dive" around episode 2-3. The pilot was pretty solid outside of some horrifically bad dialogue, but the quality started to decline pretty rapidly after that.

 

[Dsyndrome]

We going to get booming voice Vampire Hit Squad leader or kindly 'ol grandpa Vampire Hit Squad leader? Either way, there better be some Vampire Hit Squad leader with discussions about who the fuck they are.

 

[big ander]

the first time the Vampire Spec Ops showed up I thought, "there's no way this show actually has Vampire Spec Ops." and yet...

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Is anyone actually watching this?

 

[Baroquemantic]

Is anyone actually watching this?

I am. Been watching from the beginning. Just kinda forgot about this thread, haha.

Pretty ok episode so far, though kinda weak for a finale.

Spoiler

The lady getting tossed was great/fucked up.

 

[IronRinn]

Spoiler

The lady getting tossed was great/fucked up.

Totally saw it coming, but I still laughed when it did. Was thinking they were just going to have it go unnoticed in the background.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

What the freak is going onm

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

What a bunch of idiots. You sit there for damn forever.

 

[More_Badass]

A smart man once said, " When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk."

Abraham talked too much.

 

[Ponn]

Stop being so melodramatic and shove some dynamite up his ass and push him out the window. That should work.

 

[Baroquemantic]

These last several minutes have been great.

Totally saw it coming, but I still laughed when it did. Was thinking they were just going to have it go unnoticed in the background.

Haha, yep. I knew what was gonna happen as soon as they hugged, and since you could see them through the UV protector or whatever it's called.

Edit:

Spoiler

I thought Mexican dude was about to become Blade for a second there.

 

[Ponn]

"i'm listening" First smart thing he said or done all episode.

 

[Baroquemantic]

And now he's Peter Russo.

That was an aight/good finale. Could've been better, though.

 

[More_Badass]

What a weak finale. I like the show, but what a weak way to end the season. Felt like any other episode

 

[TheVampire]

FFS why didn't they immediately run outside and finish off the Master instead of just standing there watching him burn on the ground?

 

[More_Badass]

So that finale was so good, it left everyone speechless, huh?

 

[BokehKing]

Bout to watch, episode is called "the master"
They better touch on the back story of Jusef Sardu

 

[Professor Lich]

Have to agree, the retreat scene was pretty damn stupid. In the book,

Spoiler

I think it's a lot quicker. Pretty sure the master jumps outside, watches their reaction to him not dying, then escapes.

Will also say the vamps walking back words was hilarious.

Still enjoying the show myself. Excited to see how things go in season two.

 

[charsace]

People should realize by now that eph is mentally weak and his son gets that from him.

 

[KumaJG]

The ending was a legit down. I wanted Abe to die.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

The fight scenes and the Vamp Hit Squad scenes were cool, I guess. The rest was shit.

Totally saw it coming, but I still laughed when it did. Was thinking they were just going to have it go unnoticed in the background.

It would have been much more effective if they had done it that way instead.

Stop being so melodramatic and shove some dynamite up his ass and push him out the window. That should work.

FFS why didn't they immediately run outside and finish off the Master instead of just standing there watching him burn on the ground?

I know, right! God. The super evil bad guy is on the ground burning to death, so instead of hocking a thing of dynamite at him or shooting him or stabbing him, they just stood there and watched? What the fuck? After that whole "We can't let him live no matter what! This is it! We fight or we die!" speech that Setrakien gave just 5 minutes earlier?

People should realize by now that eph is mentally weak and his son gets that from him.

Eph is seriously one of the worst protagonists I've seen in a long time (this is quickly becoming an FX trademark). He's "mentally weak", as you put it, but he's also physically weak, has an ugly toupee, and constantly has a whiny looking cry face on all the time. He really needs to not suck next season.

 

[wenis]

That was a pretty ok finale. A lot of rough spots in the first season, but overall I had fun with it. I'm looking forward to season two.

 

[charsace]

They messed up the last scene with the master. In the book the master shows arrogance in his escape and doesn't just linger around.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Were the elders seriously just propped up by a dolly?

 

[More_Badass]

Were the elders seriously just propped up by a dolly?

All that fancy Vampire SWAT gear was expensive, they had to cut costs somehow.
