They're pretending colloidal silver is not a thing in this series. It's a shame, because I want blue-skinned vampire hunters.

the head hunter could be papa smurf

show is best for the body horror moments and worst for all the cheesy family drama/forced infighting moments.

maybe Eph will be reverse Samson, he gets more powerful as he loses hair.

Evil Nazi Vampire is a really fun bad guy to have

I like how the Master can't resist making the classic evil overlord mistake of leaving the plucky band of heroes alive.

Well they have no chance of beating me....

I've mostly been following this show through this thread. Is the kid really that bad? He sounds like he's somehow worse than King Joffrey.

You start to like the show for bit after scenes like the health club fight, then the lovely annoying kid shows up.

Yeah anytime a writer suggests a plot line for kids they should be beaten. The walking dead actually did that right for a change changing Coral from a little pain in the rear end to an actual poo poo wrecker was cool.

karl contributed to the plot like blasting away some annoying teenages with a shotgun.

the only point of the Strain kid is to constantly throw temper tantrums.

Zach is the worst.

Also, why haven't Eph and Nora approached the government and gone like "Hey, give us money"?

because the evil billionaire is running a propaganda campaign and influencing government decisions.

I hope the costume department uses Eph's need to disguise himself to introduce a series of ever more hilarious wigs.

two more weeeks!

Eph going bald as a disguise is one of the so bad it becomes good moments in this show.

Not really, he'd want to keep Eichorst on as his #1 servant. No one does it better than Eichorst.

Eichorst is one of the few consistently good things about the show.

I liked how the 2000+ year old hybrid killing machine was stopped from fulfilling his lifelong quest for vengeance by a few feet of rubble that a child could climb over within seconds.

the show loves showing you cool poo poo and taking it away from you a few minutes later.

Vampire dude killing and curbstomping annoying vampire kids with his bone sword awesome.

Now let's get back to some family infighting a few minutes

Eichhorst getting shot while gloating about finally catching the pesky kids should be a running gag now. I half expected him to yell "Not again!" when it happened in this episode.

I like how the gang even have their own magic mystery machine van.

They even left the manual behind.

Does anybody actually care about the characters/narrative at this point? I know I sure don't; I'm basically watching it because I like Eichorst and I hate myself.

I think all the non stop girl bickering with Dutch and also whiny kid really add to the show.

This show is the most Toronto I've seen on TV. I guess this is what it was like for people from Vancouver watching The X-Files?

"Hey how are we gonna make Union Station look like NYC?"
"I know! Let's park an NYPD cruiser out front!"
"DONE! It's indistinguishable from NYC now!"

The show makes me feel good since it's Toronto not being NYC that's getting destroyed in a vampire plague.

Just cancel the whole loving plot arc and just make a spinoff about Eichhorst murdering AirBnB guests.
