IGN:
It's not always easy being a fan of The Strain. The show has a lot going for it with its "vampire horror by way of Michael Crichton" premise and the involvement of Guillermo del Toro. Unfortunately, the show too often struggles to live up to its full potential, with lackluster characterization and inane storylines dragging down a generally good tale of humanity fighting a losing battle against an apocalyptic outbreak. That was true for the show's first season, and despite some improvements it remained true for the second.
City Hunter Review: The manga adaptation unravels the tragic beginning of Ryo Saeba and Kaori Makimura's partnership.
Deliver Me Review: The Swedish series follows two troubled teen and their troublesome lives when one of them is shot dead.
Fight For Paradise Review: This reality show is nothing new but there are so many uncomfortable moments that will definitely give you the ick.
I loved season 2. They kept the action going the entire time and there weren't too many dull moments.
The Strain is probably the grossest, freakiest show on TV.
Need to watch the show still but I read the book and I enjoyed that.
