So are we in for at least 20 minutes of Eichorst hamming it up in the best way? Cause I'm totally down for that

Eichorst as a failed radio salesman in Weimar Germany is so appropos.

This ep was pretty good. Eichorst hiding his terror at the gallows and acting nonchalant as he flicks a cigarette for the other SS officer watching for his reaction was the best part. Richard Sammel and Ruda (Dutch) have got to get some kind of award out of this one.

Finally got it all watched and man, this is probably the most baffling story decisions of a show I've ever seen. There are so many things that seem interesting like Master/Ancients/Quinlan but oh no we can't work the actual vampires into a vampire show because we have to focus on the important polyamorous relationship drama, an absentee dad and an old fucker in love with a woman named Coco. I cannot keep a straight face anytime someone says that name. It's impossible.

While watching the recent episodes I occasionally caught myself thinking the word "quinlan". Anybody knows what it could mean? I think it has something to do with the show but can't remember.

I'm going back and reading all the in jokes of the thread andAndrew_1985 posted:Setrakian - Jewish carpenter tortured in a Nazi concentration camp by Eichorst. His brother was killed by the master. After he escaped, he got a wife. Unfortunately his wife was turned by The Master. He killed her, cut out her infected heart and put it in a jar. He's full of information on the vampires and trying to kill them off. He's angry, impulsive and ever so tired. Oh and he has a heart condition. Was this ever even mentioned/shown after the second episode?

That's all the way in the second season though. He operated all of season 1 after that without any mention of it. Plus if he'd been using vampire juice the whole time like he said why did he need those pills anyway?

This show is like DragonballZ. Nobody important dies (good or bad), each fight is a placeholder for the next big fight, and you'll find out the answer to your question on the next episode of The Strain.

This was actually a pretty good episode, but that's probably because it was all about the best character and Godwins.

I thought Eichorst's back story in this episode was hilarious. "Yeah I just can't seem to find my place in the world...NAZISM! Yes! That is my destiny!"

Eichorst flashbacks are the best. And then to offset any sympathy you might feel for him -- tentacle rape! Why was that necessary. It would have been so much more fun to have a slightly sympathetic bad guy but they just ruin it with random evil. The rest of the episode was atrociously dumb. I actually snickered when hacker girl runs from the dungeon and doesn't lock Eichorst inside and drops the apparently very effective mace/pepper spray. Also rat man and his magic vampire killing rebar. All this stuff has to be intentional.

Eichorst is the only reason I'm still watching this show and I don't want him to be sympathetic, I want it amped up to 11. I want him converting babies to nazis. Not teenage nazi vampires, actual babies. Baby vampire nazis. Then he'll eat them when they disappoint him and he looks straight at the camera and winks.

I kept waiting and hoping beyond hope Eff was just going to whip out the rifle as a solution to their frequent 'what the gently caress do we do now' problems during this episode, ESPECIALLY at the beginning. They really need to embrace how trashy this poo poo is and go for more self aware comedy punches. I also laughed at the Boardwalk Empire homage complete with contest and a condescending saggy-cheeked chubby boss with a too-tight necktie.

They literally turned him into a failed pineapple infused tentacle rapist in the last episode. Clearly they're capable of cranking that dial up and I for one hope it only keeps going.

Stop knocking the show for its realism, a failed radio salesman is only ever going to turn into a failed tentacle rapist.
