Yet another faceoff with the Master that ends in nothing. That alleged explosion was embarrassing. I can't even tell if we're supposed to think the building was demolished or not.

So, did Eph just take the train back to NYC?

All this Coco stuff really needs to pay off soon, because it's cringe-worthy without knowing what her angle might be.

Fitz Williams told them where to find the master even though he didn't know that was the information he got from over hearing Palmer.

Yeah, I guess I forgot he shared a piece of info. I guess that's something, although there was probably a better way to get to that than reintroducing the character and dealing with him for a few episodes.

Dat entrance from Quinlan with those mac 10's son

 

[TheVampire]

Isnt the Master still somewhere in the factory though?

It's day light outside so he can't escape.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

Quinlan is the best thing to happen to the show.

Coco. Just hurry up and reveal what she's really up to. Too much to hope that she's working with Quinlan?

Now that Eph has decided Palmer needs to die, her motives will most likely be revealed when Eph makes his move. Or they'll reveal it after Coco and Palmer escape.

 

[Alpende]

Quinlan is the best thing to happen to the show.

Agreed, what a badass. He wrecked those kids like they were, you know, kids.

blind kids!

Those were lightning dolphin vampire kids

 

[RatskyWatsky]

I wonder if they haven't made him a little too overpowered though, as he makes all the other vamp hunters look pathetic.

 

[RS4-]

Only tolerable people on the show: Quinlan, Gus, Angel, Restaurant girl and...well. I don't know.

 

[Clevinger]

is this show still terrible?

 

[KibblesBits]

It's getting better with time.

 

[Knoxcore]

It took me a whole year but I finally finished season 1. What a load of horse shit. So much wasted potential. Should I even continue to season two?

 

[RatskyWatsky]

is this show still terrible?

Yes, although this season is better than the first.

 

[JDSN]

is this show still terrible?

Its less shit.

 

[Idle Storm]

Its less shit.

I disagree with many people on here. I love this show. I also love the source material it comes from.

The show is just plain fun and entertaining. It's enjoyable to watch. Don't try to nit-pick every little problem, just sit back and enjoy the story and characters.

Also, check out IMDB. The average rating for the show from users (and also critics) is far exceeds most of the crap on TV today.

 

[dead souls]

Its less shit.

This is correct. It's still not a great show, or even a good one, but it is vastly improved from the first season.

It's entertaining enough that I'm probably in for the duration.

There's only 3 more seasons max, so it's not like it's an enormous commitment anyway.

 

[hateradio]

That's three more years on this show. I would have hoped for one, maybe two at most.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

There's still hope!

 

[Alpende]

Didn't I read there were going to be 5 seasons and that was it? I thought someone posted that in this thread.

 

[dead souls]

I don't know, three more years of Zach sounds like a big commitment to me. Maybe they'll recast every single year.

 

[kurahador]

Could be worse. They could recast him with that Dexter's kid.

I really hate how everyone is withholding crucial information from each other in this. I mean, how hard would it be tell everyone about what you saw or did Setrakian/Eph/Fet???

And this Coco and Angel storyline seems pointless and boring.

Yeah, 3 posts above yours!

"Hey guys we came face to fucking face with the master tonight. No biggie, but he has a completely new form that is probably way more powerful than his last one. Just thought you might like to know. Also, there's this new badass ninja vamp who is sort of on our side, as he wants to kill the master too. If you see a guy with a bone sword on his back, you'll know that's him. Don't try to shoot him though or he'll kill you dead."

"Oh yeah? Thanks for the heads up bro! We make such a great team!"

This is all Dutch's fault.

I feel like the show is getting worse. Season 1 was ridiculous but it was fun. This season seems to be full of really boring stuff; Dutch and Fet, and now the girlfriend, Eph and the whole DC trip, Silver Angel, Palmer and Coco, and so on. Maybe it's just the relationship stuff that doesn't seem to fit in a story with such dire and creepy monsters and none of the couples have all that much chemistry. It just seems like there is a lot of dead-end stuff with less action and tension.

Similar to Walking Dead... The story is about family.

 

[IronRinn]

Finally watched this. Scene with Quinlan and the spider kids was fucking badass. The part where he bisected one of them and the torso started to crawl away...so good. Exactly what I expect from something with del Toro's name on it. And then I guess I'll just ditto all the complaints people had. The explosion and rubble was especially egregious. Also, still have no clue what's up with Coco. Hopefully it has some sort of payoff because right now it seems like superfluous filler.

THIS IS BEYOND THE PALE.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

This whole love affair is too much and forced.

Zack... My poor, wretched child.

 

[lazybones18]

Zack, shut the fuck up!

Eph, please give him up before the episode ends

 

[IronRinn]

It's bring your kid to the gun runners day on The Strain.

 

[somedevil]

Zack, shut the fuck up!

Eph, please give him up before the episode ends

So you are saying trade him for a sniper rifle?

Hopefully mama vamp kidnaps him and he stays with her for the rest of the show.

Edit: Gotdamn. Cooold blooooded.

 

[IronRinn]

Palmer twisting the knife.

 

[IronRinn]

That is a cheap stand in for St. Patrick's.

 

[KibblesBits]

I can't believe this is really happening with Eph and Zack.
Did they even bother to check if he was infected?

 

[Jarrod38]

You really want to trust Zack.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Not bad Zach. Not bad.

Damn, she got lucky as hell there.

 

[KibblesBits]

The Master is really looking out for her. Wow.

 

[IronRinn]

Trunk fulla spider kids.

 

[lazybones18]

Kelly all smooth and fine
