Pliskin Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 And ffs, why didn't Abraham quickly cut off the guy's leg at the knee. I doubt the worms can spread that fast. Pointless. He'd die, quickly losing his blood, and suffering. You don't cut a leg like that with a blade. The new vamp seems to be badass. But then again, so did the squad. From what I hear, this new character and the vampire squad leader were supposed to be the same character in the books. They changed the squad leader's name in season 2 and killed him to surprise readers or something, it was just plain bad. Apparently, they wanted someone more "physical" for the role.

Ok so that's why they did it. I was wondering why the vampire sqaud leader turned into an incompetent idiot when raiding the Palmer penthouse, so now I know. This show has a higher ratio of 'don't give a fuck actors/writers/directors phoning it in for a pay check' than anythng I've seen on TV for like ever. Even the bisexual English chick who single handedly crashed the internet is no longer fun, they so need to cancel this. I can't even bring myself to hate watch it, so why am I watching it????

Corvinus85 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 This show is so bad, that even this website knows it. It doesn't even pop up at the top of my content list when a new post is entered. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkash Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Okay, latest two episodes were quite good, but I'm still only watching it cause I started it, to be honest, despite the fulgurances and excellent ideas here or there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elder Sister Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Am enjoying the new Blade half breed character, but please, someone. Explain to me why all these women want to sleep with Eph. Is there a virus that makes otherwise smart, gorgeous women suddenly want to get it on with whiny, selfish losers? If so, why are they not working on a cure? Hmmmmm?

Elder Sister Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 And Eph, when prompted by the need to visit a criminal and purchase a gun, takes his young, traumatized son with him, because it's just the right thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elder Sister Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I cannot get past 'Coco's' craptacular name. I think she's running some kind of scam on the old dude. She's not sleeping with him because she digs him; she's got an agenda going. No Blade gladiator vamp tonight? Seriously? Instead we're stuck with Eph and his horrible parenting skills. And Fet's whining over Dutch is getting old. I'm ready for him to cut it out, and so is Walder Frey. Also...watch Eph unburden himself to Norah about what happened in DC. He's going to do it, and it will be in a particularly hurtful manner. He's probably the least likeable hero I've ever encountered in a tv show. Am praying that Zack gets eaten very soon, and that Eph is fed to the Ancients. Am seriously rooting for the vamps at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corvinus85 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I hope Quinlan lasts longer than his predecessor. Actually I'm rooting for him to come out the winner in all this. And finally Gus is relevant again. I love how nobody closed the door after Kelly got in. The part with the quest for the book was interesting.

Tears of Lys Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Eldrich, Eichorst - what's the diff?(ETA: And it IS just as disgusting.) Seriously, I AM getting the two mixed up. This show has so many balls in the air that I get confused. Although, Eldrich was mighty cozy with the Nazi for a while there. And, yes, the best part of the show was the quest for the Occido Lumen.(Aren't you impressed how I remembered the name of the book? :P ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
