DO YOU HEAR THAT? THAT'S THE SOUND OF ME PATTING MYSELF ON THE BACK.


My favorite trope so far is the master doesn't want Eph turned, yet every single time Eph confronts one of them he has to defend himself from attack.

"I'm not going to turn you, I want you to suffer!!!!!" Immediately followed by the creature speaking the master's words launching their mouth thing at him.

Did they ever explain why the Master attacked the plane crew in the very beginning? His plan wasn't in motion yet and it left him ridiculously exposed. Was he just so evil his mere presence in the cargo hold started turning people or something?

The ancients described in the books were much better imo. Wish they'd stayed perfectly still, roughly man shaped leech/worms that moved incredibly fast only when they needed to.

Yes

When the infected and the "survivors" woke up, they started spreading vampirism throughout the city in a decentralized, hard to control manner. Effectively each person on that plane became his own independent vector.

What this show is really missing is an actor who doesn't know he's in an extremely lovely TV show.

I would watch the gently caress out of this show with commentary tracks of a Christian Bale type actor who tried to make sense of all this bullshit.

Well in a similar sense, I notice that Eph this season is like in his own show, walking in and out of this other show bemusedly, pointedly not participating in everyone's stories. They drag him in somewhere, he bitches, then leaves and doesn't give a poo poo. Like they drag him down to help the blonde lady and he scans her, she's clean and says "I'm having a moment of clarity!"

Eph: "Good." (leaves)

Anyone else might have said "that's great, let's do something, let's get the vampires!" but Eph's like "yeah, whatevs gently caress it I'm going back to the Eph Show" :smug:

He probably just killed everybody because of that rule where you're only allowed to have 2/3 of the can of juice no matter how nicely you ask. Flying isn't fun any more.

I like the idea of having to semi-competently manage things without the Master. He doesn't have quite the same presence, but he does get results.

I like the fact Eichhorst's normally perfect hair is slightly unkempt, something's wrong!

Also the parody tie ads like Eichorst AirBnB are better than the actual show.

The master keeps on doing the whole super-villain thing of not directly eliminating heroes when he has a chance to take him down.

Eph may be a dumb drunkard but at least by killing/turning him it would be fullproof way of removing a threat off the table.

Yeah but that fits with what they said The Master would do in season 1 if you pissed him off. He doesn't see Eph or his crew as a real threat

I'm guessing Eph stole the fake book which they showed in the flashback. The old geezer is wiley.

Vampires barely had it. Wife hands it off to a vampire red shirt who gets immediately shot by Q. It's still on the ground when everyone is staring at each other at the end of the episode.

Well darn, I was giving them too much credit. I thought Mommy vamp had got away with the book but Setrakian had outwitted them all by using a fake. I like my version better.

They've just announced that next season (4) will be the last. Which makes some sense as the premise has always had a strict beginning and end point.

I've said it before, but the guy who plays Young Setrakian nails it. Uncanny.
