[Big Head want Dolly]

Ok, I noticed we didn't really have an OP for her and just wasted an embarrassing amount of time on this kinda ugly one here (the fonts don't seem to work on lists??) The title is retarded as well

I'll reply later since is giving me a hard time right now

Flashback time: wow, why are they speaking English (with an accent) - that makes no sense -_- no real surprise on a US show Hi, rat guy. Still no real plot besides rat supervision in sight for you yet, huh give it until the end of the episode Oh! We meet her family, too! Money troubles again, huh... exactly, I bet it took them all day to think of that Filming this with his phone is not going to help him fight these two vampires off and he can't even upload it to YouTube with their crappy internet Wow, there's already this many in the sewers? That was close, rat guy! now we know where the passengers went Damn, now I don't know what heart-warming (or heart-breaking) stuff Nora and her mum are talking about she mostly just kept asking when she was going home Of course he doesn't believe it... typical just think about how much they had to see before believing it No idea what hobbit's complaining about now he was helping him to get out, but said they'd be able to trace his phone I think he wanted it for the video, to be honest. he just took the sim card out instead though.

[Violent Delights]

aww thanks T! I had no idea she even made music

and we can hope that the title turns out to be true

[Big Head want Dolly]

Well, now you do - the OP was totally worth it then

give it until the end of the episode

It's going to be interesting to see what he'll do now

and he can't even upload it to YouTube with their crappy internet

I didn't even think of that But yeah, pretty useless all around

now we know where the passengers went

See, I shut down too much of my brain this time - I didn't figure this one out and just assumed the "infection" had spread so fast thanks to them, not that those actually were the passengers

she mostly just kept asking when she was going home

Aww, I hope they don't kill her off just so Dr. Nora finally agrees to kill vampires

just think about how much they had to see before believing it

True or he's in on it, too - the other lady was manipulated into covering things up because of "military secrets"... if they got her they might have him gotten him too

he was helping him to get out, but said they'd be able to trace his phone I think he wanted it for the video, to be honest. he just took the sim card out instead though.

Ah, ok thanks We'll have to wait and see which side hobbit will eventually fall on, huh?

[Violent Delights]

We'll find out I probably won't get around to watching it tomorrow though.

[Big Head want Dolly]

Yeah, same here - I'm not sure when I'll have time to watch this week yet

[Violent Delights]

whenever you need a break

[Big Head want Dolly]

Hehe, with this:

‘The Strain’ renewed for a second season

the title does fit now after all

[Violent Delights]

I watched it last night

[Big Head want Dolly]

Nice

I think I'll have time tonight

[Violent Delights]

I thought it was another entertaining one seems to build up each episode the end was good.

[Big Head want Dolly]

Ok, here we go:

Spoiler:

- SPAAAAAAAACE and crazy people on talk/radio shows It's just an eclipse, people - what you should worry about are the vampires ;-)

- Ew, you're missing your nose today, mister... - not sure what the point of that scene was - I think even without using our brains we kinda understood 3 episodes ago that he's supposed to be EVIL *shrug*

- Great, involve the family some more, FBI

- Sure, now you're still laughing at rat-guy...

- You have to keep working for them... surprise NOT

- Ugh, just f%ck off kid and take your laptop with you... get a TV you hipster family I'm unreasonably annoyed about this nonsense

- Dammit Dr. F, just tell them/show them the video

- I hate this family The stupidity hurts - and the lack of communication... don't get me started

- Yeah, just f%ck off to Vermont - all of you

- It's always a great idea to go down into a cellar when the lights are not working and there's a 99% chance you'll meet some vampires

- Love what they did with the walls - A+ interior decoration - would donate blood for...

- Heart attack at the most inconvenient time - perfect <_< Good thing he went there during the day, huh

- Finally! Hi Dr.N and mom Woa... rude!

- Nothing about your show makes sense, Nora - don't sweat it

- Don't die in my cab I like how he keeps trying to recruit people - he's just not going about it the right way

- That was one step too far - you ruined his make-up, dude!

- Who else would it be... there's only so many people in the cast and they haven't gotten to Nora yet...

- No, there isn't - help yourself, Nora!

- Wow, nice effects there and rat guy got rid of one... make that two

- Those FBI guys are such stereotypes

- I'll just skip family scenes from now on... there you have it - winners all around with this arrangement no doubt

- Now we find out what accent this is supposed to be Great, now we even meet the rat-guy's family?

- Wow, they can reach people that far back now? Scary.

- I told you so - is a great sentence to hear - especially when you're dying >_< I just can't bring myself to pity or care for the idiot though...

- That's one way to write the boyfriend out of the story...

- Ewwwwww

- Ready to talk? The frick... no talking - you suck at it anyway... get some sword fighting skills already and start killing vampires, F

- Perfect, Nora - I was hoping she'd go to grandpa with her mum

ETA: This is going somewhere - sure it takes every stupid plot and character trope in the book, but whatever - we might finally get more Mia next week Looking forward to the next episode

[Violent Delights]

All of the swearing

I agree, it's lucky that there's nothing else on right now.

[Big Head want Dolly]

Some days my tolerance for idiocy is severely lacking

[Violent Delights]

Perfect, Nora - I was hoping she'd go to grandpa with her mum
