The 4th and final season of The Strain is starting up this Sunday. It comes on after GOT. Heres a thread to talk about it because the last one went to the archives. Summary As the fourth and final season begins, nine months have passed. The world has fallen into darkness, and the strigoi are in control. The explosion at the end of season three triggered a global nuclear apocalypse. The resulting nuclear winter liberated the strigoi, allowing them to move about during daytime, and allowing the Master to establish a totalitarian regime. Preying on the fears of the populace, the Master and his minions have created an unsettling alliance in “The Partnership.” The majority of humans are now working for the strigoi, operating with a single understanding — collaborate or die. With the world in disarray and our heroes disbanded, each of them will have to overcome personal hardship and defy death for even the smallest chance at fighting back… All the while, the Master reigns supreme, furthering his scheme for the end of the world as we know it.

NYC gets nuked and somehow there's a nuclear winter on the east coast? It was just one nuke. It wasn't even a big one.

That bomb that hit the bus left the wheels and axle in pretty nice shape. I wonder how it even caught on fire. I like the non city scenes.

From the incidental dialog in last night's episode it definitely sounded like more than 1 nuke went off. General Dog posted:I stopped watching after S1, has anyone noticed that zombies are roaming the streets yet? In season 3 they reveal that the first two seasons took place over a really short period of time. By season 3 the infection was known widely known about and now in this season it has become public knowledge.

Apparently there was limited nuke exchange, according to the chained up missile man, so the show keeps its general base of logical consistency. It's is so much better than all the other vampire and zombie shows. Fear the walking dead might be the dullest show ever filmed. Heart of Dixie and that Netflix original where Ashton Kutcher lives on a ranch are probably more entertaining We've got bone sword blade, we've got the exterminator, we've got the refuses to let his hair grow guy, we've got the stupidest teen son, we're going to save the world from these god drat vampire worms before they hook us to blood pipes Dejan Bimble fucked around with this message at 22:03 on Jul 17, 2017 |

Augh. I didn't watch (most of?) last season and I wasn't planning to start up again, but knowing he was gone would have at least brought a brief moment of joy

If the show ends like the books do, I will leap off of my couch and fistpump the sky about 100 times when Zack Goodweather bites it via atomic fire.

so they decided to double down on the kid being the worst piece of poo poo ever committed to a TV screen by not even giving him a guilty conscience? An interesting choice, to put it kindly.

Remember, he's been constantly messed with by the Master what with his mom running around looking normal (before Eph killed her) and being pretty much completely insulated from all the bad stuff the vampires do.

there is no amount of mitigation that could make the little rear end in a top hat kid tolerable I hope the ratcatcher dude specifically nukes him.

Zach is the worst TV character ever (with Eph a close second) but this is a good show that improves with every season.

Points at which he should have been tipped off or shown some degree of incredulousness, an abridged list: - his mom tried to eat his father - his mom tried to eat another kid - his mom tried to eat him - his mom's minions tried to eat everybody he's ever known - the vampires nuked the world - as a pet, the vampires got him a grotesque homunculus formed from the rotting flesh and bone of a crushed and desecrated corpse of an orphan by a man eating demon in service of evil supernatural worms

Hm, maybe he's a misunderstood teenager... maybe even the showrunners call him "the evilest character on television": " Zack is hopefully one of the evilest child characters in the history of television. And who better than to mentor him than a giant parasitic, vampiric creature?" http://screenrant.com/the-strain-zack-goodweather-evil-character-child-the-master-final-season/ The fact that they themselves realize it makes me have some hope for the show's future, even though merely knowing a character is intended to be terrible doesn't make his presence less unpleasant.
