La plaga

An interesting show with potential, but it's still too early for the jury to render a verdict. The cliché characters could be it's undoing. The writers need to stop insulting the intelligence of their audience and do their homework. As indicated by other reviewers, the CDC would never handle a biological threat in such an off-handed casual manner. And would anybody really believe they would allow a single corner to undertake the autopsies of an entire plane of dead passengers? We get it's science fiction but please don't insult the intelligence of the audience with such blatant plot flaws. This show has the potential to be another Walking Dead, but if the sloppy writing continues it will just be plain dead. My finger are crossed with hopes of some better writing to follow.

You will enjoy this show if you 1. are living in 70s 2. can put your common logic on hold 3. horror genre fanatic regardless of the plot holes

in all cases otherwise, you will not! there are holes after holes but the worst is switching " A WHOLE KID" from a sweet boy to someone you want to smack for no reason!

Some other worthy of mention are . 1.An all powerful master often hires petty humans to do simple chores. 2. A very important coffin once destroyed turns out to be of no consequence. 3. The age old holocaust clichés, like seriously. how long are they going to milk this goat? 4. No one has a clue for a long long time and then all of a sudden the whole world knows and the mighty USA deploys 200 troops to protect the 2nd largest city in the world. 5. There are needless scenes after scenes that have no connection to the ongoing plot. Quite obviously they are having difficulty filling a 50 minutes episode.

Plot holes are not where it stops, some of the main actors should have been sucked out by the master just on poor performance. ie Dutch, the kid, (they will do wonderful as dumb vampires.)

Its a good plot being ravaged by below average writers. Hope del toro is taking note of this.

I watched this show when it came out & now, 8 years later, I'm watching it again! Yes, it's that good! I recommend it to anyone that enjoys these types of shows. The special effects are outstanding! The actors are great & I wouldn't change any of them out for anyone else. If you haven't seen this, YOU NEED TO! Trust me, you will not be disappointed one bit! The storyline keeps you wanting more & makes you want more so you will have a hard time just saying " OK, just one more episode!" LOL! Yeah right, that would be really hard hahaha! I can binge watch if I could lol! So, enjoy and have fun!!!

A superb drama, fantasy, horror series by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan. I loved its uncompromising vibe and atmosphere, its "gruesome" screenplay, its near outstanding development and to some great extents its acting, besides Corey Stoll and Max charles who nearly undermined the series flow, especially in the last season.

One of the few series that truly combines horrific screenplay, storyline plots and gripping visual effects since the first episode.

Highly recommended and one of Guillermo del Toro's brightest and finest works.

Everyone is so right about the kid. The kid from the first season is okay but the new kid actor they got after him ruined the show!! He's a terrible actor i'm sorry :(
