I've been watching it & I give the show's writer(s) "kudos" for straying away from the "sexy" vampire that's been prominent the last couple of decades.
"The Strains" vampires are ugly, offensive, & malevolent. Quite refreshing (IMHO) to see them in a different light...

Real good show getting better. Love the twist on the Vampires, that stinger is nasty. I hope they go back in time to show how these type of Vampires evolved. Worms.

Re: Anyone into the new tv show The Strain?
Started watching this only because I read the book series when it first came out...and the reason I got the book series was because I wanted to see what kind of new spin Guillermo Del Toro could put on the vampire legend....plus a lot of it takes place in N.Y State....I have to admit though - overall I wasn't thrilled with the books...I thought I thought they were just 'okay'...could've been better.
I figured, with Del Toro involved, it was probably always part of the plan to be a film or cable show, so maybe that will be better than the book version.
So far I like it. It's a little hammy, but the effects and makeup have been handled well. I don't much care for the actor chosen to play the lead...but that hardly matters because in the show, as with the books, the secondary characters are far more interesting anyway. Fet - the exterminator is totally cool.

Love how the CDC people are in denial it's a vampiric outbreak, not like there's been millions of movies about vampires that would give you a clue when you see certain symptoms...

Watched the first two or three episodes, 'cause Del Toro was involved in the production. Gave up 'cause I'm burnt out on vampires. Never finished the last couple of seasons of True Blood either.
