churchaussier13 Everything and everyone in this show is excellent. With one glaring exception. Zach. I despise that kid so much. There are literal Nazi Vampires in this show that are less evil than that stupid kid. All other characters are great. The atmosphere is great. The story is great. But that kid is the embodiment of evil, stupid stupid evil.
dibrinocarla I loved this series. This was the best part of 2017. Write another one. Please.
sevenxhoussin *spoiler alert* The only problem in this shows is do not explain how all this started how the first strain of vampire's create or where he came from . you need to fix that mystery Perhaps you could fix this just add one episode explaining how all this began for example that they were created because of the curse, or they came from another universe
SnoopyStyle Dr. Ephraim Goodweather (Corey Stoll) is a CDC epidemiologist. His marriage is falling apart. He and his Canary Team, Jim Kent (Sean Astin) and Dr. Nora Martinez, are called in to JFK. They find a plane full of dead, a few survivors, some worms, and an ornate box filled with dirt. It's the start of an invasion by an ancient evil. Abraham Setrakian is an elderly Holocaust survivor and pawn store owner specializing in buying silver to prepare for this day. Vasiliy Fet is a rat catcher. Eldritch Palmer, owner of the massive Stoneheart Group, has used his fortune to help the Master in exchange for eternal life. Petty criminal Gus Elizalde and hacker Dutch Velders are two of the many co-conspirators who are clueless to the true nature of the invasion. Eph and his ragtag team must battle The Master in his many forms and his vampire acolyte Thomas Eichhorst.Guillermo del Toro is the big name in this TV series. He wrote the books and set up the show. There is an intriguing monster look. The story is problematic but passable in terms of writing. The overall idea that people are out for themselves is fine. Sometimes, it's taken too far but I get the premise. There are other and much worst problems.The first is the very specific NYC locations paired with the very obvious non-NYC Toronto area shooting locations. It's all wrong and makes the show look wrong. A simple fix would be less specificity with the locations. There's no point in it anyways if they're not shooting there. The second is the kid. He wins the award for the most annoying and clueless character on TV. He's played as an emo rebellious mamma's boy regular teen when in fact, he should be portrayed as a psychopath. He should start the show killing small animals. That's the only way to make sense of this character. The third and not necessarily last (although I'm stopping here) is the constant unreal actions and bad motivations. The hero group keeps making bad mistakes and takes unreasonable paths. This world seems unreasonable. It starts with letting the survivors leave quarantine so quickly. Even the villain does not come off well. There are issues everywhere but I must admit that this is addictive hate-watch material.
