Is anyone here watching either of these two shows? I am, and I'm disappointed with both.
The Strain just doesn't live up to the potential it had, and the boy is even more nerve-grating than Carl was in the first couple of seasons of TWD. Every time he's on screen I keep hoping (in vain), that someone would wipe the damn smirk from his face.
The Mist should never have been made. I was excited about it at first, since I loved the film, but it should be re-named 'soap opera in The Mist', it's so darn boring.
Anyone have any thoughts about either?

I finished Season 2 of The Strain on TV a while back (we're behind with it where I am), and I really do wish the character of Zach would be eaten by a strigoi ASAP - though I realise that will probably never happen (sadly).
I was really ticked off with what happened regarding Nora's character in the Season 2 final.
I mainly like Setrakian, Fet and Dutch, I tolerate Eph, Eichorst is an interesting villain and I've found that I'm able to skip Gus's scenes and not feel like I've missed anything important (sorry, his storyline just bores me).
I haven't watched The Mist. All I know about it is that Aslaug (Alyssa Sutherland) from Vikings is in it.

I quit the strain halfway through season 2, and never bothered with the mist at all. |

I wasn't sure about "The Mist" at first, and although there's some silly mistakes and things that need to be re-adjusted and corrected, I really like it. Plus, the amazing Frances Conroy is in it.

She neeeds a better show. That's not for you to decide. If she chose to play in this one, it's because she liked it and saw its potential, and because the character appealed to her. The public's opinion is irrelevant.

I enjoyed the first book of The Strain. Watched the first episode and it wasn't terrible but nothing about it convinced me to keep watching.

and obviously actors do choose material that appeals to them and its not always about the money, but im just not big on the show at all. |

It's quite surprising that you would actually know such a thing! And if you dislike the show so much, stop watching it, stop bitching about it and move on to something else. |

I thought the trailers for the Mist were quite good,, but I watched two episodes and was not very impressed. I have not felt the need to watch more. It wasn't bad, it just didn't really do anything for me.

Indeed, you sad little kid, indeed. What gives you the right to come here and start attacking a long time poster for no reason? Take your crap to another site. |

Anyone have any thoughts about either? I watched the first three episodes of The Mist, and the most scary thing in it so far has been some cockroaches. I love the movie in large part because of all the cool monsters! Do they ever show up in the series at all?! |
