The Strain (FX)

Anyone catch the pilot? Having read the books, which I loved, I thought the pilot was excellent. Del Toro did a hell of a job directing the pilot. Also great to see Corey Stoll after his stint on HoC.

Can't wait to see how this is handled going forward.

Pretty cliched and poorly acted in spots but still interesting enough to stick with it for now. It needs to get better though.

It was really cliched. The opening with the absent husband going to counseling to save his marriage was the worst. The dialogue was really clunky too.

The best part was the autopsy scene. I might tune in one more time.

Re: The Strain (FX)

I thought it was pretty cool.

Show Spoilers..

I'm a little confused as to why the one's at the morgue were flesh eating zombies and the girl was just pretty chill about being a dead.

I assumed the little girl fed on the coroner too so she just wasn't hungry at the moment she reunited with her dad.
