It kind of feels like they skipped a handful of episodes worth of build up, because to me it seems they went from "what is this mystery disease" to "oh yeah, vampires are attacking New York, tuesdays amirite" in the span of a scene or two.

Also, why the gently caress is public transportation still running if vampires are rampaging through the streets?

Having read the books and still enjoying the show when it isn't being too serious, I was really excited when I saw that this episode was called The Silver Angel because the idea of a retired luchador suplexing vampires was that exact kind of ridiculous poo poo I wanted the show to go ham with and was really disappointed when he only got like 15 minutes of screen time in the episode named after him. He better put that mask back on soon.

You know Kelly, since you got your mind back, having a shower and changing your clothes wouldn't be a bad thing. Great to see some progress with the virus was somewhat of a win. That luchadore stuff was too long however. Looking forward to more gross stuff

I'm holding out hope that they didn't seriously gently caress up that bad and that the ancients were just weakened and captured and will be back next episode

Those weren't the Ancients, though, they were just their strike team. Which sucks still, because they were the best part of the show by a mile.

Does anybody have a clip of the "this is Staten island. This is who we are!"? That was the best part of every episode, less satire and more documentary.

You know, in the first episode we saw the Vamp SWAT, they burst into the house in full daylight, with no issues. Why is UV suddenly such a huge problem when they obviously have gear made to shield them completely?

Chuck Hogan confirmed that McHattie's character isn't actually Quinlan though. He will show up later this season. https://www.spoilertv.com/2014/11/the-strain-season-2-advance-preview.html It's still bullshit that they killed off Vaun and the rest of vampire SWAT.

I still crack up over how poorly the infection is portrayed. One minute you have monsters attacking FBI agents in broad day light and then in the next there's a guy delivering a pizza or something equally hilarious.
