I don't even recall the very last season finale scene that I just watched like 2 or nights ago.  ;D

But it's OK, the Fall shows have started anyways.   :D

Was also able to finish this but a season 2 is also a question mark for me.

finale was both terrible and laughable ...

I guess when they were filming it they had no idea what they doing--I recall an interview by Kevin Durand saying that he doesn't even remember when they filmed it since it was a long time ago for him, LOL

So they really should listen to the mostly negative feedback this show has been getting so they can improve it when they start filming the second season.

^this was much much better sa books and comics so I had high hopes for this. :( Probably del Toro should take over the directorial job?

At least they replaced the lousy actor who played the son in the first season--he really didn't know how to act, siguro madami talagang negative feedback about his non-performance.

I'm continuing to watch this for the laughs and Corey Stoll's terrible wig, because I treat this show as a comedy...everything is absurd and hilarious. Manhattan is supposed to be in the middle of a "vampire apocalypse" and yet there are still classes and business press conferences going on, with parents, reporters, and office workers obviously unconcerned with their personal safety.


and he's not any better.

LOL, that's true--old Zack didn't know how to act, new Zack is OA.

Napalitan ba yung bata? I don't remember his face sa season 1. Maybe he's really not memorable.

left: old Zach (Ben Hyland) - right: new Zach (Max Charles)



old Zach had that same expression throughout the entire season 1, LOL ... the producers probably wanted a Carl Grimes wannabe, so they replaced him.

somebody please kill that new Zach, who seems to have lost his IQ and is gunning for the "most overacting and damn f*cking annoying child actor" award.

What's the dumb reason why military has not been fully deployed in Manhattan every night?  The zombies wont be no match to the fire power (and armed with UV lights) of the military.

The Strain renewed for a 3rd Season ... So we can watch more episodes where New Yorkers can casually dine out at Indian restaurants, ride buses or the subway, and attend financial meetings all at night, when there are bloodthirsty vampires with tentacle mouths roaming the streets at every turn. Yay for stupidity!  ::)

Corey Stoll finally takes that awful wig off and is now his normal bald self, LOL

Di ko napanuod yung last episode but in the last few episodes this kid acts like he's clueless and should have been one of the first to go. He's excess baggage.
