Bad writing, bad acting, illogical characters and plain dumb


Okay, I've endured the first two episodes of this vapidly silly show, with fleeting moments of semi-cool vampire scenes. They are about the only good parts of this very dumb series where not one single person has a normal conversation or acts like a real person.

Two words - God Awful.

I watched about 1.5 episodes and deleted the timer. With days until the world ends they are chasing some random kid and her new daddy around the country all because no one at their company learned the art of bullshitting. Why do you want the kid? "We are trying to save her (which is true). It's in her best interest to come to the clinic." And if he doesn't believe that, tell him the truth. The dude was in special ops, he can keep a secret.

Something else that's MASSIVELY stupid, is the scene where the death row inmate inquires to the doctor injecting him if what he's doing is legal or not.

WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Since when would a death row inmate who's scheduled to die for murder give two shits about the legality of something?!? How f-ing dumb! A legally conscious-minded murderer. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yet ANOTHER example of how stupid the conversations are between people in this show. Idiotic!!

reply

Yeah it was ridiculous they tried to make the murderer sympathetic.

And let's not forget the two janitors - retard and redneck - mopping up the floors around the vampires IN A SECRET LAB!!!

Who the hell runs a top secret, government funded lab with real vampires and has the inbred and idgett brothers cleaning up right next to their cells?!?

And what the hell happened to the shatterproof Plexiglas that was keeping the vampires contained? How is it that there are suddenly metal bars in front of the vampire cells instead of glass, where they can easily grab ahold of someone through the bars?!?!?
