The Strain....*sigh*. Extremely disappointing considering the peeps involved. The first couple of episodes were good, they had their problems, but they were solid. Around episode 5 or 6 it just got awful and I mean awful. It was dragged out, very contrived, extremely stupid, the most bland lead character I have seen in a while and it without a doubt had the WORSE child actor I have seen in a television series. The only things that made it watchable were the vampires which are pretty damn cool, (except The Master Vampire who was scary until you saw what he actually looked like) it knew how to have a sense of humor and a couple of the characters (the old guy, the exterminator and the two bad guys) were very entertaining in a sort of hammy badass way. I'd say skip it unless you are REALLY (and I mean REALLY) into vampire/apocalypse stuff.
