The Mist, The Strain

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 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.

The Strain is a hard one to judge, for me, they made a mistake when they not only recast the actor who played Zach, but did a complete 180 on his character, he went from a kind and endearing kid, to a whiny little jerk and it definitely threw me off a little and he quickly became annoying, but not in a good way, as if to say that's how his character should come across, but in the sense, that the acting wasn't good and the character itself wasn't convincing

The show also seemed to have issues with pacing and stuff, but i am watching the new season and honestly, overall, i kind of enjoy it, it's not my favourite show, not even close, but for me at least, it's enjoyable enough to watch

As for The Mist

I was excited leading up to it and looking forward to seeing it, but the first few episodes were disappointing, i just found the fact they seemed to check everything off the list of diversity requirements and then worried about the story a little distracting, but while saying that, as they season has continued and the characters are getting developed and the story slowly moving along, i am enjoying it more and more and i am finding it very interesting

I like what is happening in the church more than i thought i would, even the cop is growing on me and i think he's a complete ass

The hospital stuff was okay, but could have been a bit better, although we got some decent character developments out of it, although i need to remember characters names, i keep forgetting them, i think i can only remember Mia's name, (probably get told there is no Mia and feel like an idiot, lol) but i can be crap with remembering names

The mall stuff though, honestly, i want to think it's completely absurd that they would go the way they're going so soon, but there is a part of me, that is aware, that when you take away our comforts and what we take for granted, Human's regress to basically animals and survival of the fittest, you only have to look when we get a petrol/oil or shortage of water/food or there is a Black Friday sale thing going on, to see what we as a species are really like, so while i find the stuff happening at the mall a bit stupid, it's sadly not really that far off the truth of what would more than likely begin to happen

I want to make predictions of the plots and story, but i suck at it, so i won't bother with that, i never get them right

But anyway

I do find myself starting to enjoy The Mist, but it has taken more than a couple of episodes to get to this point

The Strain, well, like about, for me at least, it's enjoyable enough, but not amazing

Nope. Try picking better shows.
